 Solution

If the filtration is stable from degree $\ell$, then $M^{\ast }$ is generated over $R^{\ast }$ by finite generating sets for $M_0,\dots ,M_{\ell }$. Conversely, let homogeneous elements of degrees at most $\ell$ generate $M^{\ast }$. In every degree $n>\ell$, each expression for an element of $M_n$ uses a positive-degree coefficient from $R^{\ast }$, so $M_n=I{M}_{n-1}$. Hence finite generation is equivalent to stability.

For $M^{\prime }\subseteq M$, takeThen $M^{\ast }$ is a graded submodule of the finite Rees module $⨁I^{n}M$. Since $R$ is Noetherian and $I$ is finitely generated, $R^{\ast }$ is Noetherian; hence $M^{\ast }$ is finite and the filtration is stable. Therefore, for some $\ell$ and all $n\ge \ell$,This is the Artin-Rees lemma.
