Depth of localized Hom modules #

For finite modules over a Noetherian ring, localization commutes with taking linear maps. Consequently a bound at most two on the depth of the localized target also bounds the depth of the localized Hom module. In particular a depth bound on the local ring passes to duals. This is useful for extending maps across subsets of codimension at least two.
