The aim of this note is to study the class of one dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local rings, $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ say, possessing a canonical ideal $K$ which is a reduction of $\mathfrak{m}$. We call $R$ to have canonical reduction $K$. We show…

Let R be a commutative ring and I an ideal of R. A sub-ideal J of I is a reduction of I if JI^n = I^n+1 for some positive integer n. The ring R has the (finite) basic ideal property if (finitely generated) ideals of R do not have proper…

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…

We introduce the notion of strongly Lech-independent ideals as a generalization of Lech-independent ideals defined by Lech and Hanes, and use this notion to derive inequalities on multiplicities of ideals. In particular we prove that if…

We study the weak and strong Lefschetz properties for $R/\mathrm{in}(I_t)$, where $I_t$ is the ideal of a polynomial ring $R$ generated by the $t$-minors of an $m\times n$ matrix of indeterminates, and $\mathrm{in}(I_t)$ denotes the initial…

Let I be a complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R,m). In the case where R has dimension two, the beautiful theory developed by Zariski implies that I factors uniquely as a product of powers of simple complete ideals and each of…

Let $R$ denote a commutative Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal of $R$, and let $S$ be a multiplicatively closed subset of $R$. In \cite{Ra1}, Ratliff showed that the sequence of sets ${\rm Ass}_RR/\bar{I}\subseteq {\rm Ass}_RR/\bar{I^2}…

Let $k$ be a field with characteristic zero, $R$ be the ring $k[x_1, \cdots, x_n]$ and $I$ be a monomial ideal of $R$. We study the Artinian local algebra $R/I$ when considered as an $R$-module $M$. We show that the largest reduced…

Let $(R,\m,k)$ be a Noetherian local ring with maximal ideal $\m$ and residue field $k$. The linearity defect of a finitely generated $R$-module $M$, which is denoted $\ld_R(M)$, is a numerical measure of how far $M$ is from having linear…

We say that a commutative ring R satisfies the restricted minimum (RM) condition if for all essential ideals I in R, factor R/I is an Artinian ring. We will focus on Noetherian reduced rings because in this setting known results for RM…

A commutative noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is Gorenstein if and only if every parameter ideal of $R$ is irreducible. Although irreducible parameter ideals may exist in non-Gorenstein rings, Marley, Rogers, and Sakurai show there…

In 2007, Y. Shimoda, in connection with a long-standing question of J. Sally, asked whether a Noetherian local ring, such that all its prime ideals different from the maximal ideal are complete intersections, has Krull dimension at most…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ denote a local Cohen-Macaulay ring and $I$ a non-nilpotent ideal of $R$. The purpose of this article is to investigate Faltings' finiteness dimension $f_I(R)$ and equidimensionalness of certain homomorphic image of $R$.…

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 $R$ be a commutative unital ring, $\textsf{X}$ a subshift, and $\widetilde{\mathcal{A}}_R(\textsf{X})$ the corresponding unital subshift algebra. We establish the reduction theorem for $\widetilde{\mathcal{A}}_R(\textsf{X})$. As a…

In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the index of reducibility and Chern coefficients for primary ideals. As an application, we give characterizations of a Cohen-Macaulay ring in terms of its type, irreducible…

Two formulas for the multiplicity of the fiber cone $F(I)=\oplus_{n=0}^{\infty} I^n/\m I^n$ of an $\m$-primary ideal of a $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(R,\m)$ are derived in terms of the mixed multiplicity $e_{d-1}(\m | I),$…

The adjoint of an ideal I in a regular local ring R is the R-ideal adj(I):=H^0(Y, I\omega_Y), where f:Y -> Spec(R) is a proper birational map with Y nonsingular and IO_Y invertible, and \omega_f is a canonical relative dualizing sheaf.…

Given a minimal set of generators $\bold{x}$ of an ideal $I$ of height d in a regular local ring ($R, m, k$) we prove several cases for which the map $K_d(\bold{x}; R) \otimes k \to \Tor_d^R (R/I, k)$ is the 0-map. As a consequence of the…

Let $(A, \mathfrak m)$ be a normal two-dimensional local ring and $I$ an $\mathfrak m$-primary integrally closed ideal with a minimal reduction $Q$. Then we calculate the numbers: $\mathrm{nr}(I) = \min\{n \;|\; \overline{I^{n+1}} =…
