Local cohomology is a concept in algebraic geometry and commutative algebra that extends the notion of ordinary cohomology to study the local behavior of a module over a ring, particularly with respect to a specified ideal. It is particularly useful for understanding the properties of sheaves and modules around points in a space or in relation to certain subvarieties.
