A note on Abelian categories of cofinite modules

Abstract

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $I$ be an ideal of $R$. In this article we answer affirmatively a question raised by the present author in \cite{B2}. Also, as an immediate consequence of this result it is shown that the category of all $I$-cofinite $R$-modules $\mathcal{C}(R,I{)}_{cof}$ is an Abelian subcategory of the category of all $R$-modules, whenever $q(I,R)\le 1$. These assertions answer affirmatively a question raised by R. Hartshorne in [{\it Affine duality and cofiniteness}, Invent. Math. {\bf9}(1970), 145-164], in some special cases.
