Infinite direct product of C-M rings

76 Views Asked by At

A finite direct product of Cohen-Macaulay rings is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. It could be checked by a scrutiny into localization of a finite direct product of rings at a prime ideal of the product. Now, does the statement remain true if "finite" is replaced by "infinite"? Any leading answer is appreciated.

This question is not well-posed: an infinite direct product of fields is not even a noetherian ring.
