Symbolic Rees algebras

Commutative Algebra 2021-02-08 v2 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We survey old and new approaches to the study of symbolic powers of ideals. Our focus is on the symbolic Rees algebra of an ideal, viewed both as a tool to investigate its symbolic powers and as a source of challenging problems in its own right. We provide an invitation to this area of investigation by stating several open questions.
