Abstract

Let (A,m)(A,\mathfrak{m}) be an analytically un-ramified Noetherian local ring of dimension d1d \geq 1, II a regular m\mathfrak{m}-primary ideal of AA and let I\overline{I} be integral closure ideal of II. If AA is of characteristic p>0p > 0 then let II^* denote the tight closure of II. Let GI(A)=n0In/In+1G_I(A)=\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}I^n/I^{n+1} be the associated graded ring of AA with respect to II. Assume GI(A)G_I(A) is unmixed and equi-dimensional. We show that either the function PI:nλ(In/In)P_{\overline{I}} :\,n\mapsto \lambda(\overline{I^n}/I^n) is a polynomial type of degree d1d-1 or In=In\overline{I^n}=I^n for all n1.n\geq 1. We prove an analogus result for the tight closure filtration if AA is of characteristic p>0p > 0. When AA is generalized Cohen-Macaulay and II is generated by standard system of parameters we give bounds for the first Hilbert coefficients of the integral closure filtration of II and the tight closure filtration of II.
