All given rings in this paper are commutative, associative with identity, and Noetherian. Throughout, p denotes a positive prime integer. For the most part, we shall be studying local rings, i.e., Noetherian rings with a unique maximal ideal. Likewise our main interest is in rings of positive prime characteristic p. If (R, m) is local of characteristic p, there is a natural action of the Frobenius endomorphism of R on each of its local cohomology modules H m(R). We call an R-submodule N of one of these local cohomology modules F-stable if the action of F maps N into itself. One of our objectives is to understand when a local ring, (R, m), especially a reduced Cohen-Macaulay local ring, has the property that only finitely many R-submodules of its local cohomology modules F-stable. When this occurs we say that R is FH-finite. Of course, when the ring is Cohen-Macaulay there is only one non-vanishing local cohomology module, H m(R), where d = dim (R). The problem of studying the F-stable submodules of H m(R) arises naturally in tight closure theory, taking a point of view pioneered by K. Smith [Sm1,2,3]. E.g., if R is complete, reduced, and Gorenstein, the largest proper F-stable submodule of H m(R) corresponds to the tight closure of 0 (in the finitistic sense: see [HH2], §8), and its annihilator is the test ideal of R. Also see Discussion 2.10 here.
