Let $R$$\subset$$ S$ be commutative noetherian rings,and $I$ is an ideal of $S$. We now that $I$ is a $R-$module. Do we have $grade_{R}(I)$ $\le$ $ grade_{S}(I)$?
Thank you!

    $\begingroup$ What do you mean by "an ideal of $R$ and $S$"? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Sorry, I mean that $R$ is a subring of $S$. $\endgroup$ Commented Jan 2, 2017 at 18:23

    $\begingroup$ But it is very unlikely that an ideal in $R$ is also an ideal in $S$... $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ For an ideal of $R$ which is also an ideal of $S$. $\endgroup$

This is false. Take any $R$-module $M$ of grade $>0$, and put $S=R\oplus M$, the product of any two elements of $M$ being $0$. Then $M$ is an ideal of $S$ and $\mathrm{grade}_S(M)=0\ $ (because $\mathrm{Hom}_S(S/M,S)\neq 0$).
