Abstract
The asymptotic Samuel function generalizes to arbitrary rings the usual order function of a regular local ring. Here we explore some natural properties in the context of excellent, equidimensional rings containing a field. In addition, we establish some results regarding the Samuel slope of a local ring. This is an invariant related with algorithmic resolution of singularities of algebraic varieties. Among other results, we study its behavior after certain faithfully flat extensions.
