Maximal depth property of bigraded modules

Abstract: Let

S = K [x_{1}, d o t s, x_{m}, y_{1}, d o t s, y_{n}]

be the standard bigraded polynomial ring over a field

K

. Let

M

be a finitely generated bigraded

S

-module and

Q = (y_{1}, d o t s, y_{n})

. We say

M

has maximal depth with respect to

Q

if there is an associated prime

p p

of

M

such that

g r a d e (Q, M) = c d (Q, S / p p)

. In this paper, we study finitely generated bigraded modules with maximal depth with respect to

Q

. It is shown that sequentially Cohen--Macaulay modules with respect to

Q

have maximal depth with respect to

Q

. In fact, maximal depth property generalizes the concept of sequentially Cohen--Macaulayness. Next, we show that if

M

has maximal depth with respect to

Q

with

g r a d e (Q, M) > 0

, then

H_{Q}^{g r a d e (Q, M)} (M)

is not finitely generated. As a consequence, "generalized Cohen--Macaulay modules with respect to

Q

" having "maximal depth with respect to

Q

" are Cohen--Macaulay with respect to

Q

. All hypersurface rings that have maximal depth with respect to

Q

are classified.
