In this paper, we investigate a lower bound (say $s_{HK}(p,d)$) on Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities for non-regular unmixed local rings of Krull dimension $d$ with characteristic $p>0$. Especially, we focus three-dimensional local rings. In…
The paper investigates the behavior of Hilbert-Samuel and Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities in families of ideals. It is shown that Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity is upper semicontinuous almost generally and that Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity is upper…
We show that the Hilbert-Kunz density function of a quadric hypersurface of Krull dimension $n+1$ is a piecewise polynomial on a subset of $[0, n]$, whose complement in $[0, n]$ has measure zero. Our explicit description of the Hilbert-Kunz…
We give a new and simple proof that unmixed local rings having Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity equal to 1 must be regular.
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. We show that if $X\subseteq\mathbb{P}^n_k$ is an equidimensional subscheme with Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity less than $\lambda$ at all points $x\in X$, then for a general…
A `trinomial hyper surface' is defined in \S 1 below. In this article, I provide a supportive reasoning towards the fact that there can be examples of trinomial hyper surfaces (at least over fields of characteristic 2) for which the…
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…
Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and F-signature are numerical invariants of commutative rings in positive characteristic that measure severity of singularities: for a regular ring both invariants are equal to one and the converse holds under mild…
We define a (perfectoid) mixed characteristic version of $F$-signature and Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity by utilizing the perfectoidization functor of Bhatt-Scholze and Faltings' normalized length (also developed in the work of Gabber-Ramero).…
We study the behavior of the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of powers of an ideal in a local ring. In dimension two, we provide answers to some problems raised by Smirnov, and give a criterion to answer one of his questions in terms of a…
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…
Let (R,m,k) be an excellent, local, normal ring of characteristic p with a perfect residue field and dim R=d. Let M be a finitely generated R-module. We show that there exists a real number beta(M) such that lambda(M/I^[q]M) = e_{HK}(M) q^d…
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…
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…
We present results on the Watanabe-Yoshida conjecture for the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a local ring of positive characteristic. By improving on a "volume estimate" giving a lower bound for Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity, we obtain the…
We use the results of our paper "p-Fractals and power series--I" (Journal of Algebra 280, 2004, pp. 505--536) to prove the rationality of the Hilbert-Kunz series of a large family of power series, including those of the form \sum_i…
We show that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of a $d$-dimensional nonregular complete intersection over the algebraic closure of $F_p$, $p>2$ prime, is bounded by below by the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of the hypersurface $\sum _{i=0}^{d}…
We give a generalization of Gelfand's criterion on the commutativity of Hecke algebras for Gelfand pairs and multiplicity-free triples over algebraically closed fields of arbitrary characteristic. Using more lenient versions of projectivity…
We prove that the F-signature of an affine semigroup ring of positive characteristic is always a rational number, and describe a method for computing this number. We use this method to determine the F-signature of Segre products of…
In this paper, we introduce new general frameworks for estimating the maximal dimension of Hilbert cubes contained in finite truncations of arbitrary sets. As applications, we investigate Hilbert cubes in a range of arithmetic sets,…
