Torsion in kernels of induced maps on divisor class groups

Commutative Algebra 2013-02-27 v1

Abstract

We investigate torsion elements in the kernel of the map on divisor class groups of excellent local normal domains A and A/I, for an ideal I of finite projective dimension. The motivation for this work is a result of Griffith-Weston which applies when I is principal.
