Let (R,m) be a regular local ring with prime ideals p and q such that p+q is m-primary and dim(R/p)+dim(R/q)=dim(R). It has been conjectured by Kurano and Roberts that p^{(n)} \cap q \subseteq m^{n+1} for all positive integers n. We discuss…

Searching for structural reasons behind old results and conjectures of Chudnovksy regarding the least degree of a nonzero form in an ideal of fat points in projective N-space, we make conjectures which explain them, and we prove the…

It is proved, as was conjectured by Eisenbud-Koh-Stillman, that for a finitely generated graded module $M$ over the symmetric algebra $S(V)$, if the Koszul group ${\cal K}_{p,0}(M,V)\ne 0$, then the set of rank 1 relations in $M_0\otimes V$…

According to Ogg's conjecture (Mazur's Theorem), cuspidal subgroup coincides with rational torsion points of the Jacobian variety of modular curves of the form $X_0(N)$ for a {\it prime} number $N$. There is a recent interest to generalize…

In this paper we present several finite families of congruences between cusp forms and Eisenstein series of higher weights at powers of prime ideals. We formulate a conjecture which describes properties of the prime ideals and their…

Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve, let $p>2$ be a prime of good reduction for $E$, and assume that $E$ admits a rational $p$-isogeny with kernel $\mathbb{F}_p(\phi)$. In this paper we prove the cyclotomic Iwasawa main conjecture for…

Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$ and $I$ is an ideal in $A$. Then M. P. Murthy conjectured that $\mu(I)=\mu(I/I^2)$, where $\mu$ denotes the minimal number of generators. Recently, Fasel \cite{F}…

The Breuil-M\'{e}zard Conjecture predicts the existence of hypothetical "Breuil-Mezard cycles" in the moduli space of mod $p$ Galois representations of $\mathrm{Gal}(\overline{\mathbb{Q}}_q/\mathbb{Q}_q)$ that should govern congruences…

There is a longstanding conjecture by Fr\"oberg about the Hilbert series of the ring $R/I$, where $R$ is a polynomial ring, and $I$ an ideal generated by generic forms. We prove this conjecture true in the case when $I$ is generated by a…

In 1995, Ehud de Shalit proved an analogue of a conjecture of Mazur--Tate for the modular Jacobian $J_0(p)$. His main result was valid away from the Eisenstein primes. We complete the work of de Shalit by including the Eisenstein primes,…

Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers $\geq 5$ such that $p$ divides $N-1$. Let $I$ be Mazur's Eisenstein ideal of level $N$ and $H_+$ be the plus part of $H_1(X_0(N), \mathbf{Z}_p)$ for the complex conjugation. We give a conjectural explicit…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. A proper ideal I of R is said to be a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a \in I$ the intersection of all minimal prime ideals containing a is contained in I. The purpose of this…

An ideal $I$ of a commutative ring $R$ is said to be of linear type when its Rees algebra and symmetric algebra exhibit isomorphism. In this paper, we investigate the conjecture put forth by Jayanthan, Kumar, and Sarkar (2021) that if $G$…

The Eisenbud-Green-Harris (EGH) conjecture offers a generalization of the famous Macaulay's theorem about the Hilbert functions of homogeneous ideals in a polynomial ring $K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$. In this survey paper, we provide a good…

Let $K$ be an infinite field and let $I = (f_1,\cdots,f_r)$ be an ideal in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ generated by generic forms of degrees $d_1,\cdots,d_r$. A longstanding conjecture by Fr\"{o}berg predicts the shape of…

The Eisenbud-Green-Harris (EGH) conjecture states that a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring $K[x_1,\,\ldots,\,x_n]$ over a field $K$ that contains a regular sequence $f_1,\,\ldots,\, f_n$ with degrees $a_i$, $i=1,\,\ldots,\,n$ has the…

Many classical ring-theoretic results state that an ideal that is maximal with respect to satisfying a special property must be prime. We present a "Prime Ideal Principle" that gives a uniform method of proving such facts, generalizing the…

Let $B$ be a reduced local (Noetherian) ring with maximal ideal $M$. Suppose that $B$ contains the rationals, $B/M$ is uncountable and $|B| = |B/M|$. Let the minimal prime ideals of $B$ be partitioned into $m \geq 1$ subcollections $C_1,…

In 2020, Cossu and Zanardo raised a conjecture on the idempotent factorization on singular matrices in the form $\begin{pmatrix} p&z\\ \bar{z}&\sfrac{\lVert z\rVert}{p} \end{pmatrix},$ where $p$ is a prime integer which is irreducible but…

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. For every $R$-module $M$, $\gamma_I(M) = \sum\{ \operatorname{Bi} f \,|\, f \in \operatorname{Hom}_R(I,M)\}$ is called the trace of $I$ in $M$. It is…
