Proposition 51.16.6. Let A be a Noetherian local ring with completion A^\wedge . Let I \subset A be an ideal such that
for every minimal prime \mathfrak p \subset A^\wedge of dimension \dim (A). Then \text{cd}(A, I) < \dim (A).
Proof. Since A \to A^\wedge is faithfully flat we have H^ d_{V(I)}(A) \otimes _ A A^\wedge = H^ d_{V(IA^\wedge )}(A^\wedge ) by Dualizing Complexes, Lemma 47.9.3. Thus we may assume A is complete.
Assume A is complete. Let \mathfrak p_1, \ldots , \mathfrak p_ n \subset A be the minimal primes of dimension d. Consider the complete local ring A_ i = A/\mathfrak p_ i. We have H^ d_{V(I)}(A_ i) = H^ d_{V(IA_ i)}(A_ i) by Dualizing Complexes, Lemma 47.9.2. By Lemma 51.16.2 it suffices to prove the lemma for (A_ i, IA_ i). Thus we may assume A is a complete local domain.
Assume A is a complete local domain. We can choose a prime ideal \mathfrak p \supset I with \dim (A/\mathfrak p) = 1. By Lemma 51.16.1 it suffices to prove the lemma for \mathfrak p.
By Lemma 51.16.4 it suffices to show that H^0_{V(\mathfrak p)}(\omega _ A^\bullet ) = 0. Recall that
By Lemma 51.16.5 we see that the colimit is the same as
Since \text{depth}(A/\mathfrak p^{(n)}) = 1 we see that these ext groups are zero by Lemma 51.9.4 as desired. \square
