This paper shows the existence of ideals whose localizations and completions at prime ideals are parameter test ideals of the localized and completed rings. We do this for Cohen-Macaulay localizations (resp., completions) of non-local…

We give a combinatorial description of local cohomology modules of a graded module over a semigroup ring, with support at the graded maximal ideal. This combinatorial framework yields Hochster-type formulas for the Hilbert series of such…

Let $(R,\fm)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. If $R$ has a canonical module, then there are some interesting results about duality for this situation. In this paper, we show that one can indeed obtain similar these results in the case $R$…

It is a well-known result that, in projective space over a field, every set-theoretical complete intersection of positive dimension in connected in codimension one (Hartshorne [H1,3.4.6] or [H2, Theorem 1.3]). Another important…

The arithmetic rank of an ideal in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field is the smallest number of equations needed to define its vanishing locus set-theoretically. We determine the arithmetic rank of the generic $m$-residual…

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m}) $ be a Gorenstein local ring of dimension $d > 0$ and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$ such that $(0) \ne I \subsetneq R$ and $R/I$ is a Cohen-Macaulay ring of dimension $d$. There is given a complete answer to the question…

If $I$ is a perfect ideal in a local Cohen-Macaulay ring, the generators of ideals linked to $I$ are well understood. However, the generators of the residual intersections of $I$ have only been computed in a few special cases. In this…

For finitely generated module $M$ over a local ring $R$, the conventional notions of complete intersection dimension $\cid_R M$ and Cohen-Macaulay dimension $\cmdim_R M$ do not extend to cover the case of infinitely generated modules. In…
