An upper bound for the multiplicity and Wilf's conjecture for one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay rings

Commutative Algebra 2025-05-15 v3

Abstract

In this work we provide an upper bound for the multiplicity of a one-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay ring (under certain conditions), describe the rings attaining the equality for this bound, and outline a connection with Wilf's conjecture for numerical semigroup rings. Then we prove the analogue of Wilf's conjecture for almost Gorenstein rings.
