Suppose $(X, \Delta)$ is a log-$\bQ$-Gorenstein pair. Recent work of M. Blickle and the first two authors gives a uniform description of the multiplier ideal $\mJ(X;\Delta)$ (in characteristic zero) and the test ideal $\tau(X;\Delta)$ (in…

Suppose that $R$ is a ring essentially of finite type over a perfect field of characteristic $p > 0$ and that $a \subseteq R$ is an ideal. We prove that the set of $F$-jumping numbers of $\tau_b(R; a^t)$ has no limit points under the…

The test ideal $\tau(R)$ of a ring $R$ of prime characteristic is an important object in the theory of tight closure. In this paper, we study a generalization of the test ideal, which is the ideal $\tau(\a^t)$ associated to a given ideal…

Many results are known about test ideals and $F$-singularities for ${\bf Q}$-Gorenstein rings. In this paper we generalize many of these results to the case when the symbolic Rees algebra $O_X \oplus O_X(-K_X) \oplus O_X(-2K_X) \oplus ...$…

We prove that the $F$-jumping numbers of the test ideal $\tau(X; \Delta, \ba^t)$ are discrete and rational under the assumptions that $X$ is a normal and $F$-finite variety over a field of positive characteristic $p$, $K_X+\Delta$ is…

Suppose that $X = \Spec R$ is an $F$-finite normal variety in characteristic $p > 0$. In this paper we show that the big test ideal $\tau_b(R) = \tld \tau(R)$ is equal to $\sum_{\Delta} \tau(R; \Delta)$ where the sum is over $\Delta$ such…

We prove that the finitistic test ideal $\tau_{\rm fg}(R, \Delta, \mathfrak{a}^t)$ coincides with the big test ideal $\tau_{\rm b}(R, \Delta, \mathfrak{a}^t)$ if the pair $(R,\Delta)$ is numerically log $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein.

The generalized test ideals introduced in [HY] are related to multiplier ideals via reduction to characteristic p. In addition, they satisfy many of the subtle properties of the multiplier ideals, which in characteristic zero follow via…

Consider a pair $(R, \ba^t)$ where $R$ is a ring of positive characteristic, $\ba$ is an ideal such that $a \cap $R^{\circ} \neq \emptyset$, and $t > 0$ is a real number. In this situation we have the ideal $\tau_R(\ba^t)$, the generalized…

Given a reduced, local ring $R$ and an ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ of positive height, we give a decomposition of the test module, $\tau(\omega_T, t^{-\lambda})$, of the extended Rees algebra, $T =R[\mathfrak{a} t, t^{-1}]$. In particular, the…

We study higher jumping numbers and generalized test ideals associated to determinantal ideals over a field of positive characteristic. We work in positive characteristic and give a complete characterization of both families for ideals…

We prove a result relating the Jacobian ideal and the generalized test ideal associated to a principal ideal in $R=k[x_1,...,x_n]$ with $[k:k^p]<\infty$ or in $R=k[[x_1,...,x_n]]$ with an arbitrary field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. As a…

Let $\mathfrak a \subset \mathscr O_X$ be a coherent ideal sheaf on a normal complex variety $X$, and let $c \ge 0$ be a real number. De Fernex and Hacon associated a multiplier ideal sheaf to the pair $(X, \mathfrak a^c)$ which coincides…

This paper studies the jumping coefficients of principal ideals of regular local rings. Recently M. Blickle, M. Mustata and K. Smith showed that, when $R$ is of essentially finite type over a field and $F$-finite, bounded intervals contain…

We introduce a new variant of tight closure associated to any fixed ideal $\a$, which we call $\a$-tight closure, and study various properties thereof. In our theory, the annihilator ideal $\tau(\a)$ of all $\a$-tight closure relations,…

Continuing ideas of a recent preprint of Schwede arXiv:0906.4313 we study test ideals by viewing them as minimal objects in a certain class of $F$-pure modules over algebras of p^{-e}-linear operators. This shift in the viewpoint leads to a…

Let $k$ be an $F$-finite and infinite field of characteristic $p>2$. We show, there exist infinitely many $F$-finite local domains $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ which are not $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein and $\tau_{\mathrm{b}}(R;\mathfrak{m}^t)$ has all…
