Cohen-Macaulay multigraded modules (Q2654670)

Let \(S\) be a standard \(\mathbb{N}^n\)-graded algebra over a local ring \((A,\mathfrak{m}).\) The Cohen-Macaulayness property of the finitely generated \(\mathbb{Z}^n\)-graded modules over \(S\) is characterized in terms of the vanishing of certain sheaf cohomology modules. As application, the Cohen-Macaulayness of multi-Rees modules is studied.
