Blowup algebras of determinantal ideals in prime characteristic

Abstract

We study when blowup algebras are FF-split or strongly FF-regular. Our main focus is on algebras given by symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals of minors of a generic matrix, a symmetric matrix, and a Hankel matrix. We also study ideals of Pfaffians of a skew-symmetric matrix. We use these results to obtain bounds on the degrees of the defining equations for these algebras. We also prove that the limit of the normalized regularity of the symbolic powers of these ideals exists and that their depth stabilizes. Finally, we show that, for determinantal ideals, there exists a monomial order for which taking initial ideals commutes with taking symbolic powers. To obtain these results we develop the notion of FF-split filtrations and symbolic FF-split ideals.

Comments

Final version. This preprint corrects, replaces, and expands the work done in preprint arXiv:2004.03831, which contains a mistake Lemma 5.4. The new version changes some terminology. We also added a new result about F-regularity for symbolic Rees algebras of ideals associated to symmetric matrices (Theorem 6.16)
