Aug 8, 2016 at 13:28 comment added Axel Stäbler The standard references are probably Brodmann&Sharp or Hartshorne's local cohomology lecture notes. Both are probably not suited for undergraduates.
Aug 8, 2016 at 13:28 comment added Axel Stäbler Eisenbud's Geometry of Syzygies has a short appendix on local cohomology that may give you a good feel for what's going on. If you know some basic dimension theory then ``24 hours of local cohomology'' is a decent source if you are willing to take certain things for granted or delve into the literature to solve some of the harder exercises. In fact, I ran a seminar based on this not too long ago with students that had taken a second course in algebra. The material covered in Bruns&Herzog's Cohen-Macaulay rings is also very well presented (but they do not cover as much as other sources).
Aug 3, 2016 at 17:13 comment added 54321user @AxelStäbler Do you know of any nice introductions to local cohomology accessible to undergraduates?
Jul 25, 2016 at 18:48 comment added David Treumann You might find Vilonen's thesis useful, available here: gdz.sub.uni-goettingen.de/dms/load/img/?PID=GDZPPN002101815
Jul 25, 2016 at 6:41 comment added Axel Stäbler If $M$ is a $D$-module (e.g. $M = R$ a ring) then the local cohomology modules $H_I^j(M)$ are $D_R$-modules. This should give you some examples I guess.
