Let R be a regular, local and F-finite ring defined over a field of finite characteristic. Let I be an ideal of height c with normal quotient $A=R/I$. It is shown that the local cohomology module H^c_I(R) contains a unique simple…
We describe an algorithm for computing parameter-test-ideals in certain local Cohen-Macaulay rings. The algorithm is based on the study of a Frobenius map on the injective hull of the residue field of the ring and on the application of…
The aim of this paper is to study the relationship between reduction numbers and Borel-fixed ideals in all characteristics. By definition, Borel-fixed ideals are closed under certain specializations which is similar to the strong stability.…
We show that algebraic formulas and constant-depth circuits are closed under taking factors. In other words, we show that if a multivariate polynomial over a field of characteristic zero has a small constant-depth circuit or formula, then…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$ and $J$ its minimal reduction. We study the depths of $F(I)$ under certain depth assumptions on $G(I)$ and length condition on quotients of…
We study a conjecture of Carvajal-Rojas, Schwede and Tucker which states that for a complex KLT singularity $(R, \mathfrak{m})$, the F-signatures of the reductions of $R$ to characteristic $p \gg 0$ remain bounded away from zero as $p \to…
An old conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and R\'enyi, proved by Schinzel, predicted a bound for the number of terms of a polynomial $g(x) \in \mathbb{C}[x]$ when its square $g(x)^2$ has a given number of terms. Further conjectures and results arose,…
Consider a system F of n polynomials in n variables, with a total of n+k distinct exponent vectors, over any local field L. We discuss conjecturally tight bounds on the maximal number of non-degenerate roots F can have over L, with all…
Let I denote a homogeneous R_+-primary ideal in a two-dimensional normal standard-graded domain over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that a homogeneous element f belongs to the solid closure I^* if and only if…
Let $\Gamma$ be the unit circle, $A(\Gamma)$ the Wiener algebra of continuous functions whose series of Fourier coefficients are absolutely convergent, and $A^+$ the subalgebra of $A(\Gamma)$ of functions whose negative coefficients are…
Every Boolean function can be uniquely represented as a multilinear polynomial. The entropy and the total influence are two ways to measure the concentration of its Fourier coefficients, namely the monomial coefficients in this…
Let $J$ be any ideal in a strongly $F$-regular, diagonally $F$-split ring $R$ essentially of finite type over an $F$-finite field. We show that $J^{s+t} \subseteq \tau(J^{s - \epsilon}) \tau(J^{t-\epsilon})$ for all $s, t, \epsilon > 0$ for…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring of prime characteristic $p$ and $Q$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary parameter ideal. We give criteria for F-rationality of $R$ using the tight Hilbert function $H^*_Q(n)=\ell(R/(Q^n)^*$ and the…
This paper establishes the fundamental properties of the $s$-closures, a recently introduced family of closure operations on ideals of rings of positive characteristic. The behavior of the $s$-closure of homogeneous ideals in graded rings…
Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d \geq 3$ and let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in $A$. If $I$ is an ideal in $A$ then let $I^*$ be the integral closure of $I$…
The union-closed sets conjecture (sometimes referred to as Frankl's conjecture) states that every finite, nontrivial union-closed family of sets has an element that is in at least half of its members. Although the conjecture is known to be…
Given an integer mxn matrix A satisfying certain regularity assumptions, we consider the set F(A) of all integer vectors b such that the associated knapsack polytope P(A,b)={x: Ax=b, x>=0} contains an integer point. When m=1 the set F(A) is…
In relation to Fuglede's conjecture, we establish several Plancherel-type identities and demonstrate the surjectivity of the Fourier transform between certain unbounded tiling sets of $\mathbb{R}$ that are in duality. In the terminology…
We call shifted power a polynomial of the form $(x-a)^e$. The main goal of this paper is to obtain broadly applicable criteria ensuring that the elements of a finite family $F$ of shifted powers are linearly independent or, failing that, to…
This paper presents three results on F-singularities. First, we give a new proof of Eisenstein's restriction theorem for adjoint ideal sheaves, using the theory of F-singularities. Second, we show that a conjecture of Musta\c{t}\u{a} and…
