In this article, we investigate F-pure thresholds of polynomials that are homogeneous under some N-grading, and have an isolated singularity at the origin. We characterize these invariants in terms of the base p expansion of the…
In this note, we study F-purity of pairs, and show (as is the case with log canonicity) that F-purity is preserved at the F-pure threshold. We also characterize when F-purity is equivalent to sharp F-purity, an alternate notion of purity…
A singularity in characteristic zero is said to be of dense F-pure type if its modulo p reduction is locally F-split for infinitely many p. We prove that if $x \in X$ is an isolated log canonical singularity with $\mu(x \in X) \le 2$ (see…
We compute the $F$-pure threshold of some non-principal ideals which satisfy a geometric generic condition about their Newton polyhedron. We also contribute some evidence in favor of the conjectured equality between the $F$-pure threshold…
We provide a family of examples where the $F$-pure threshold and the log canonical threshold of a polynomial are different, but where $p$ does not divide the denominator of the $F$-pure threshold (compare with an example of…
It is well known that nice conditions on the canonical module of a local ring have a strong impact in the study of strong F-regularity and F-purity. In this note, we prove that if (R,m) is an equidimensional and S_2 local ring that admits a…
In this paper, we investigate the relationship of F-regular (resp. F-pure) rings and log terminal (resp. log canonical) singularities. Also, we extend the notions of F-regularity and F-purity to "F-singularities of pairs." The notions of…
We present a new relation between an invariant of singularities in characteristic zero (the log canonical threshold) and an invariant of singularities defined via the Frobenius morphism in positive characteristic (the F-pure threshold). We…
We provide a direct computation of the $F$-pure threshold of degree four homogeneous polynomial in two variables and, more generally, of certain homogeneous polynomials with four distinct roots. The computation depends on whether the cross…
In this note, we consider a corollary of the ACC conjecture for F-pure thresholds. Specifically, we show that the F-pure threshold (and more generally, the test ideals) associated to a polynomial with an isolated singularity are locally…
Using the Frobenius map, we introduce a new invariant for a pair $(R,\a)$ of a ring $R$ and an ideal $\a \subset R$, which we call the F-pure threshold $\mathrm{c}(\a)$ of $\a$, and study its properties. We see that the F-pure threshold…
We characterize the ideals $I$ of $\mathcal O_n$ of finite colength whose integral closure is equal to the integral closure of an ideal generated by pure monomials. This characterization, which is motivated by an inequality proven by…
We find a formula, in terms of n, d and p, for the value of the F-pure threshold for the generic homogeneous polynomial of degree d in n variables over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p. We also show that, in every…
Let $I$ be an equidimensional ideal of a ring polynomial $R$ over $\mathbb{C}$ and let $J$ be its generic linkage. We prove that there is a uniform bound of the difference between the F-pure thresholds of $I_p$ and $J_p$ via the generalized…
In this note, we use estimates given in the recent preprint [Her11b]to deduce a formula for the F-pure threshold of a binomial hypersurface over a field of prime characteristic. These formulas are given in terms of the associated splitting…
In this paper, we study a positive characteristic analogue of the centers of log canonicity of a pair $(R, \Delta)$. We call these analogues centers of $F$-purity. We prove positive characteristic analogues of subadjunction-like results,…
We give a value for the $F$-pure threshold at the maximal homogeneous ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ of the symmetric determinantal ring over a field of prime characteristic. The answer is characteristic independent, so we immediately get the log…
We consider a quasi-homogeneous polynomial $f \in \mathbb{Z}[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ of degree $w$ equal to the degree of $x_0 \cdots x_N$ and show that the $F$-pure threshold of the reduction $f_p \in \mathbb{F}_p[x_0, \ldots, x_N]$ is equal to…
We provide a formula for $F$-thresholds of a Thom-Sebastiani type polynomial over a perfect field of prime characteristic. This result extends the formula for the $F$-pure threshold of a diagonal hypersurface. We also compute the first test…
The $F$-pure threshold is a numerical invariant of prime characteristic singularities, that constitutes an analogue of the log canonical thresholds in characteristic zero. We compute the $F$-pure thresholds of determinantal ideals, i.e., of…
