We present a unified approach to the study of Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity, F-signature, and related limits governed by Frobenius and Cartier linear actions in positive characteristic commutative algebra. We introduce general techniques that…
In this paper we define and study the global Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and the global F-signature of prime characteristic rings which are not necessarily local. Our techniques are made meaningful by extending many known theorems about…
The Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and $F$-signature are important invariants for researchers in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. We provide software, and describe the automation of a calculation, for the two invariants in the case of…
We establish the continuity of Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and F-signature as functions from a Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(R,\m,k)$ of prime characteristic to the real numbers at reduced parameter elements with respect to the $\m$-adic…
This note grew from the lectures I delivered at ICTP during the Summer School in honor of Hochster and Huneke. Its purpose is to provide an introduction to the notion of equimultiplicity (of numerical invariants of singularities/local…
We prove that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is upper semi-continuous in F-finite rings and algebras of essentially finite type over an excellent local ring.
Let $\mathscr{k}=\overline{\mathbb{F}_2}$ and let $0\neq\alpha\in \mathscr{k}$. We present a conjecture supported by computer experimentation involving the Brenner-Monsky quartic $g_\alpha=\alpha x^2y^2+z^4+xyz^2+(x^3+y^3)z\in…
This paper establishes uniform bounds in characteristic $p$ rings which are either F-finite or essentially of finite type over an excellent local ring. These uniform bounds are then used to show that the Hilbert-Kunz length functions and…
We explore the equimultiplicity theory of the $F$-invariants Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity, $F$-signature, Frobenius Betti numbers, and Frobenius Euler characteristic over strongly $F$-regular rings. Techniques introduced in this article…
We study two important numerical invariants, Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity and $F$-signature, on the spectrum of a Noetherian $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebra $R$ that is not necessarily $F$-finite. When $R$ is excellent, we show that the limits…
This paper develops a theory of equimultiplicity for Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and uses it to study the behavior of Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity on the Brenner-Monsky hypersurface. A number of applications follows, in particular we show that…
In this paper, we estimate the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of the (extended) Rees algebras in terms of some invariants of the base ring. Also, we give an explicit formula for the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities of Rees algebras over Veronese…
We show that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is a rational number for an R_+-primary homogeneous ideal I=(f_1, ..., f_n) in a two-dimensional graded domain R of finite type over an algebraically closed field of positive characteristic.…
This paper focuses on a numerical invariant for local rings of characteristic $p$ called $h$-function, that recovers several important invariants, including the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity, $F$-signature, $F$-threshold, and $F$-signature of…
In this article, I give an iterative closed form formula for the Hilbert-Kunz function for any binomial hypersurface in general, over any feild of arbitrary positive characteristic. I prove that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity associated to…
In this paper we give new lower bounds on the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of unmixed non-regular local rings, bounding them uniformly away from one. Our results improve previous work of Aberbach and Enescu.
We prove that, under certain assumptions, generalized Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities can be expressed as linear combinations of classical Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities.
We show that Bertini theorems hold for $F$-signature and Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity. In particular, if $X \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ is normal and quasi-projective with $F$-signature greater than $\lambda$ (respectively the Hilbert--Kunz…
We study $F$-signature under proper birational morphisms $\pi : Y \to X$, showing that $F$-signature strictly increases for small morphisms or if $ K_Y \geq \pi ^*K_X$. In certain cases, we can even show that the $F$-signature of $Y$ is at…
