Abstract

Let R be a local ring such that R=S/I where S is a regular local ring and I is a prime ideal of height r. In this paper it is shown that if I is minimally generated by r+1 elements, then there exists an R-homomorphism φ: KR→Rr+1 such that φ is an injection and Rr+1/φ(KR)≌I/I2 where KR:=Ext rS (R,S) the canonical module of R. Moreover, in case where S is a locality over a perfect field k, it is also shown that if R is Cohen-Macaulay and I2 is a primary ideal, then the homological dimension of the differential module ΩR/k is infinite.
