The purpose of this note is to find an elemenary explanation of a surprising result of Ein--Lazarsfeld--Smith \cite{ELS} and Hochster--Huneke \cite{HH} on the containment between symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals in simple cases. This…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. In this note, we study the property: If $ I \subsetneqq J$ are ideals in $R$, then $ I^n \subsetneqq J^n$ for all $ n\geq 1$. We define the notion of a big ideal (Definition 1.2). It is noted…

We give an elementary proof prove of the preservation of the Noetherian condition for commutative rings with unity $R$ having at least one finitely generated ideal $I$ such that the quotient ring is again finitely generated, and $R$ is…

We introduce a new class of commutative {non-noetherian} rings, called $n$-subperfect rings, generalizing the almost perfect rings that have been studied recently by Fuchs-Salce. For an integer $n \ge 0$, the ring $R$ is $n$-subperfect if…

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $N$ a finitely generated $R$-module and $I$ an ideal of $R$. The set $\bar{Q^*}(I, N)$, the quintasymptotic primes of $I$ with respect to $N$, was originally introduced by McAdam \cite{Mc2}. Also,…

We study rings which have Noetherian cohomology under the action of a ring of cohomology operators. The main result is a criterion for a complex of modules over such a ring to have finite injective dimension. This criterion generalizes, by…

Let (R,m) be a Noetherian local domain of dimension n that is essentially finitely generated over a field and let R^ denote the m-adic completion of R. Matsumura has shown that n-1 is the maximal height possible for prime ideals of R^ in…

Let R be a commutative ring and let Spec(R) denote the collection of prime ideals of R. We define a topology on Spec(R) by using ultrafilters and demonstrate that this topology is identical to the well known patch or constructible topology.…

An ideal I in a Noetherian ring R is normally torsion-free if Ass(R/I^t)=Ass(R/I) for all natural numbers t. We develop a technique to inductively study normally torsion-free square-free monomial ideals. In particular, we show that if a…

We study the relation type question, raised by C. Huneke, which asks whether for a complete equidimensional local ring R there exists a uniform bound for the relation type of parameter ideals. Wang gave a positive answer to this question…

Given an ideal $I$ in a Noetherian ring, one can ask the containment question: for which $m$ and $r$ is the symbolic power $I^{(m)}$ contained in the ordinary power $I^r$? C. Bocci and B. Harbourne study the containment question in a…

We initiate a unified, axiomatic study of noncommutative algebras R whose prime spectra are, in a natural way, finite unions of commutative noetherian spectra. Our results illustrate how these commutative spectra can be functorially ``sewn…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. The small finitistic dimension $\fPD(R)$ of $R$ is defined to be the supremum of projective dimensions of $R$-modules with finite projective resolutions. In this paper, we characterize a ring $R$…

The containment problem for symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals asks for what values of $a$ and $b$ we have $I^{(a)} \subseteq I^b$. Over a regular ring, a result by Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith, Hochster-Huneke, and Ma-Schwede partially answers…

We study the ring extensions R \subseteq T having the same set of prime ideals provided Nil(R) is a divided prime ideal. Some conditions are given under which no such T exist properly containing R. Using idealization theory, the examples…

Let $S$ be a Cohen-Macaulay ring which is local or standard graded over a field, and let $I$ be an unmixed ideal that is also generically a complete intersection. Our goal in this paper is multi-fold. First, we give a multiplicity-based…

In previous work, the second author introduced a topology, for spaces of irreducible representations, that reduces to the classical Zariski topology over commutative rings but provides a proper refinement in various noncommutative settings.…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring $R$ with $1_R$ and with group of units $R^{\times}$. Let $\Phi = \Phi(t_1,\ldots, t_h) = \sum_{i=1}^h \varphi_it_i$ be an $h$-ary linear form with nonzero coefficients $\varphi_1,\ldots, \varphi_h \in R$. Let…

Let R be a standard graded ring over a commutative Noetherian ring with unity and I a graded ideal of R. Let M be a finitely generated graded R-module. We prove that there exist integers e and \rho_M(I) such that for all large n, reg(I^nM)=…

Powers of a polynomial $\operatorname{GL}$-representation are topologically Noetherian under the action of $\operatorname{Sym} \times \operatorname{GL}$. We extend this result to powers of algebraic representations of the orthogonal and the…
