Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of products of ideals

Commutative Algebra 2016-02-29 v2

Abstract

We give bounds for the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of the product of two ideals, and we characterize the equality in terms of the tight closures of the ideals. Connections are drawn with *-spread and with ordinary length calculations.
