In a local Cohen-Macaulay ring $(A, \mathrm{m})$, we study the Hilbert function of an $\mathrm{m}$-primary ideal $I$ whose reduction number is two. It is a continuous work of the papers of Huneke, Ooishi, Sally, and Goto-Nishida-Ozeki. With…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a hypersurface local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$ and let $I$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. We show that there is a non-negative integer $r_I$ (depending only on $I$) such that if $M$ is any non-free maximal…

In this expository paper we survey results that relate Hilbert coefficients of an m-primary ideal I in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R, m) with depth of the associated graded ring G(I). Several results in this area follow from two theorems…

Let $(R,m)$ be a Noetherian local ring of dimension $d$ and $K,Q$ be $m$-primary ideals in $R.$ In this paper we study the finiteness properties of the sets $\Lambda_i^K(R):=\{g_i^K(Q): Q$ is a parameter ideal of $R\},$ where $g_i^K(Q)$…

Let $\mathfrak{q}$ denote an ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(A,\mathfrak{m})$. Let $\underline{a}=a_1,\ldots,a_d \subset \mathfrak{q}$ denote a system of parameters in a finitely generated $A$-module $M$. This note investigate an…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring such that $\widehat{R}$ is reduced. We prove that, when $\widehat{R}$ is $S_2$, if there exists a parameter ideal $Q\subseteq R$ such that $\bar{e}_1(Q)=0$, then $R$ is regular and…

Let A be a Noetherian local ring with the maximal ideal m and d=dimA. Let Q be a parameter ideal in A. Let I=Q:m. The problem of when the equality I^2=QI holds true is explored. When A is a Cohen-Macaulay ring, this problem was completely…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d \geq 2$. An $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal $I$ is said to be a generalized Narita ideal if $e_i^I(A) = 0$ for $2 \leq i \leq d$. If $I$ is a generalized Narita ideal and…

For a Noetherian local ring $(\RR, \m)$, the first two Hilbert coefficients, $e_0$ and $e_1$, of the $I$-adic filtration of an $\m$-primary ideal $I$ are known to code for properties of $\RR$, of the blowup of $\spec(\RR)$ along $V(I)$, and…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and let $\fa$ be a proper ideal of $R$. A non-zero finitely generated $R$-module $M$ is called relative Cohen-Macaulay with respect to $\fa$ if there is precisely one non vanishing local…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. We study how local cohomology modules with support in $\mathfrak{m}$ change for small perturbations $J$ of $I$, that is, for ideals $J$ such that $I\equiv J\bmod…

For an ideal $I$ of a Noetherian local ring $(R,\fm,k)$ we show that $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)\geq -1$. It is demonstrated that some residual intersections of an ideal $I$ for which $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)= -1\;\text{or}\;0$ are perfect. Some…

Let $K$ be a field, $R$ a standard graded $K$-algebra and $M$ be a finitely generated graded $R$-module. The rate of $M$, $rate_R(M)$, is a measure of the growth of the shifts in the minimal graded free resolution of $M$. In this paper, we…

Criteria are given in terms of certain Hilbert coefficients for the fiber cone F(I) of an m-primary ideal I in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R,m) so that it is Cohen-Macaulay or has depth at least dim(R)-1. A version of Huneke's fundamental…
