We study ideals $\mathcal{I}$ on $\mathbb{N}$ satisfying the following Baire-type property: if $X$ is a complete metric space and $\{X_{A} \colon A \in \mathcal{I} \}$ is a family of nowhere dense subsets of $X$ with $X_{A} \subset X_{B}$…

Suppose $(X, \Delta)$ is a log-$\bQ$-Gorenstein pair. Recent work of M. Blickle and the first two authors gives a uniform description of the multiplier ideal $\mJ(X;\Delta)$ (in characteristic zero) and the test ideal $\tau(X;\Delta)$ (in…

We study singular Hermitian metrics on vector bundles. There are two main results in this paper. The first one is on the coherence of the higher rank analogue of multiplier ideals for singular Hermitian metrics defined by global sections.…

We consider associative algebras over a field of characteristic zero. We give a version of the proof of the Kemer's theorems concerning the Specht problem solution. It is proved that the ideal of graded identities of a finitely generated…

In this note, we consider a non-commutative analogy of the classical Fefferman multiplier problem for the ball. More precisely, if $\chi$ is the characteristic function of the unit interval $I=[0,1],$ we investigate a family of differential…

We prove multiplier theorems on rank one noncompact symmetric spaces which improve aspects of existing results. A common theme of our main results is that we partially drop specific assumptions on the multiplier function such as a…

We study Abelian ideals of a Borel subalgebra consisting of long roots. It is shown that methods of Cellini and Papi can be extended to this situation. A uniform expression for the number of long Abelian ideals is given. We also show that…

We introduce a novel approach to Bertini irreducibility theorems over an arbitrary field, based on random hyperplane slicing over a finite field. Extending a result of Benoist, we prove that for a morphism $\phi \colon X \to \mathbb{P}^n$…

Given a composite null hypothesis H, test supermartingales are non-negative supermartingales with respect to H with initial value 1. Large values of test supermartingales provide evidence against H. As a result, test supermartingales are an…

Let ${\mathbb Z}_p$ denote the ring of all $p$-adic integers and call $${\mathcal U}=\{(x_1,\ldots,x_n):\,a_1x_1+\ldots+a_nx_n+b=0\}$$ a hyperplane over ${\mathbb Z}_p^n$, where at least one of $a_1,\ldots,a_n$ is not divisible by $p$. We…

Given a geometrically irreducible subscheme X in P^n over F_q of dimension at least 2, we prove that the fraction of degree d hypersurfaces H such that the intersection of H and X is geometrically irreducible tends to 1 as d tends to…

We prove that certain roots of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial (i.e. b-function) are jumping coefficients up to a sign, showing a partial converse of a theorem of L. Ein, R. Lazarsfeld, K.E. Smith, and D. Varolin. We also prove that certain…

Consider an algebraic number field, $K$, and its ring of integers, $\mathcal{O}_K$. There exists a smallest $B_K>1$ such that for any $x>1$ we can find a prime ideal, $\mathfrak{p}$, in $\mathcal{O}_K$ with norm $N(\mathfrak{p})$ in the…

When $I$ is the radical homogeneous ideal of a finite set of points in projective $N$-space, ${\bf P}^N$, over a field $K$, it has been conjectured that $I^{(rN-N+1)}$ should be contained in $I^r$ for all $r\geq 1$. Recent counterexamples…

Poonen and Slavov recently developed a novel approach to Bertini irreducibility theorems over an arbitrary field, based on random hyperplane slicing. In this paper, we extend their work by proving an analogous bound for the dimension of the…

In this note, we use the theory of test ideals and Cartier algebras to examine the interplay between the tight and integral closures in a local ring of positive characteristic. Using work of Schwede, we prove the abundance of strong test…

Border bases are traditionally restricted to 0-dimensional ideals due to the finiteness of the underlying order ideal. In this paper we extend the theory to homogeneous ideals of positive Krull dimension by introducing homogeneous border…

For an ideal of a regular $\cc$-algebra, its Bernstein-Sato polynomial is the monic polynomial of the lowest degree satisfying an Bernstein-Sato functional equation. We generalize the notion of Bernstein-Sato functional equations to the…

Bounds on quantum probabilities and expectation values are derived for experimental setups associated with Bell-type inequalities. In analogy to the classical bounds, the quantum limits are experimentally testable and therefore serve as…

There has arisen in recent years a substantial theory of "multiplier ideals'' in commutative rings. These are integrally closed ideals with properties that lend themselves to highly interesting applications. But how special are they among…
