1_ INTR~ uUCTI~ N rZ ring homomorphism (all rings are commutative, with identity, and homomorphisms preserve the identity) R--f S is called pure if for every R-module M, M---f M RR S via m-+ m@ 1 is injective. Quite generally, if I is a homogeneous ideal of a graded ring R and rad (1)= rad ((fo,..., fi2) R), where f0,..., fn are forms of R, then the local cohomology modules H, i (R) can be expressed as direct limits of Koszul cohomology: f3, yf-q= lim H+ Y.(f’; R))(details, including notation, are given in Section 2) and the modules H,‘(R) acquire a Z-grading independent of the choice of the forms f= f”,...,. f,,.Our first objective here (Section 2) is to show that in characteristic p> 0, under certain conditions (including the purity of the Frobenius homomorphism) on R, the computation of local cohomology can be amazingly simplified and many graded pieces vanish (cf. Theorem 1.1, Proposition 2.4 below). After developing some prerequisites concerning the generic behavior of local cohomology in Section 3, we proceed to show (Section 4) that for certain classes of rings in characteristic 0 one may obtain analogous results by passing to characteristic p>, 0 (cf. Proposition 4.7 and Theorem 4.8). In Section 5, we consider a number of examples of families of rings that fit into one of our classes. In some cases (see Example 5.30) membership depends on the existence of infinitely many primes in an arithmetic progression. Also in Section 5, various criteria for membership in these classes are developed. A point that
