We generalize the theory of local cohomology and local duality to a large class of non-commutative N-graded noetherian algebras; specifically, to any algebra, B, that can be obtained as graded quotient of some noetherian AS-Gorenstein algebra, A. As an application, we generalize three “classical” commutative results. For any graded module M over B we have the Bass-numbers ui (M) = dimk Extib(k, M), and we can then prove that for M finitely generated, we have • id(M) =sup{i|ui(M)≠0}; • the Bass-theorem: if id(M) < ∞, then id(M) = depth(B); • the “No Holes”-theorem: if depth(M) ≤i≤(M), then μi (M) ≠ 0, where id(M) is M's injective dimension as an object in the category of graded modules, while depth(M) is the smallest i such that ExtiB(k, M) ≠ 0. As a further application, we also generalize a non-vanishing result for local cohomology. It states that if M is a finitely generated graded B- module, then [image omitted] Here [image omitted] is the i'th local cohomology-module of M. To prove this result, we need the AS-Gorenstein algebra, A, of which B is a quotient, to satisfy the so-called Similar Submodule Condition, SSC, defined in [11] (for instance, A could be PI).
