We prove that the local etale fundamental group of a strongly $F$-regular singularity is finite (and likewise for the \'etale fundamental group of the complement of a codimension $\geq 2$ set), analogous to results of Xu and…
For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$.…
The $F$-signature of a local ring of prime characteristic is a numerical invariant that detects many interesting properties. For example, this invariant detects (non)singularity and strong $F$-regularity. However, it is very difficult to…
We extend a result by Huneke and Watanabe bounding the multiplicity of $F$-pure local rings of prime characteristic in terms of their dimension and embedding dimensions to the case of $F$-injective, generalized Cohen-Macaulay rings. We then…
Let $(R, \frak m)$ be a local ring of prime characteristic $p$ of dimension $d$ with the embedding dimension $v$. Suppose the Frobenius test exponent for parameter ideals $Fte(R)$ of $R$ is finite, and let $Q = p^{Fte(R)}$. It is shown that…
Suppose R is a Noetherian local ring with prime characteristic p>0. In this article, we show the existence of a local numerical invariant, called the F-signature, which roughly characterizes the asymptotic growth of the number of splittings…
This paper mainly focuses on commutative local domains of dimension one. We then obtain a criterion for a ring to have a finite number of trace ideals in terms of integrally closed ideals. We also explore properties of such rings related to…
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).…
In this paper we study extension problems for torsors in positive characteristic. Let $F$ be a field of characteristic $p>0$ and $U/F$ be a unipotent algebraic group. As our first main result, we prove that every $U$-torsor defined over the…
In this paper, an algebraic theory for local rings of finite embedding dimension is developed. Several extensions of (Krull) dimension are proposed, which are then used to generalize singularity notions from commutative algebra. Finally,…
Let $\Gamma$ be a discrete group. To every ideal in $\ell^{\infty}(\G)$ we associate a C$^*$-algebra completion of the group ring that encapsulates the unitary representations with matrix coefficients belonging to the ideal. The general…
We study a conjecture of Carvajal-Rojas, Schwede and Tucker which states that for a complex KLT singularity $(R, \mathfrak{m})$, the F-signatures of the reductions of $R$ to characteristic $p \gg 0$ remain bounded away from zero as $p \to…
We find sufficient conditions which imply equality of the finitistic test ideal and test ideal in rings of prime characteristic. Utilizing recent progress from the prime characteristic minimal model program we equate the notions of…
We derive transformation rules for test ideals and $F$-singularities under an arbitrary finite surjective morphism $\pi : Y \to X$ of normal varieties in prime characteristic $p > 0$. The main technique is to relate homomorphisms $F_{*}…
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…
This article is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of certain sequences of ideals in rings of prime characteristic. These sequences, which we call $p$-families of ideals, are ubiquitous in prime characteristic commutative algebra (e.g.,…
Polstra showed that the cardinality of the torsion subgroup of the divisor class group of a local strongly $F$-regular ring is finite. We expand upon this result and prove that the reciprocal of the $F$-signature of a local strongly…
We establish a criterion for the strong $F$-regularity of a (non-Gorenstein) Cohen-Macaulay reduced complete local ring of dimension at least $2$, containing a perfect field of prime characteristic $p$. We also describe an explicit…
We prove that two arbitrary ideals $I \subset J$ in an equidimensional and universally catenary Noetherian local ring have the same integral closure if and only if they have the same multiplicity sequence. We also obtain a Principle of…
We investigate finite torsors over big opens of spectra of strongly $F$-regular germs that do not extend to torsors over the whole spectrum. Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ be a strongly $F$-regular $k$-germ where $k$ is an algebraically closed…
