Abstract

We investigate the containment problem of symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals in a commutative Noetherian domain RR. Let RR be a normal domain of prime characteristic p>0p>0 that is FF-finite or essentially of finite type over an excellent local ring. Assume there exists a finite extension RSR\to S so that the non-strongly FF-regular locus of Spec(S)\mathrm{Spec}(S) consists only of isolated points, then there exists a constant CC such that for all ideals IRI \subseteq R and nNn \in \mathbb{N}, the symbolic power I(Cn)I^{(Cn)} is contained in the ordinary power InI^n. In other words, RR enjoys the Uniform Symbolic Topology Property. Moreover, if RR is FF-finite and strongly FF-regular, then RR enjoys a property that is proven to be stronger: there exists a constant e0Ne_0 \in \mathbb{N} such that for any ideal IRI \subseteq R and all eNe \in \mathbb{N}, if xRI[pe]x \in R \setminus I^{[p^e]}, then there exists an RR-linear map φ:Fe+e0RR\varphi: F^{e+e_0}_*R \to R such that φ(Fe+e0x)I\varphi(F^{e+e_0}_*x) \notin I.
