We give a new elementary proof of the Brian\c{c}on-Skoda theorem, which states that for an $m$-generated ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ in the ring of germs of analytic functions at $0\in \C^n$, the $\nu$:th power of its integral closure is contained…
Using the fact that the structure sheaf of a resolution of singularities, or regular alteration, pushes forward to a Cohen-Macaulay complex in equal characteristic zero with a differential graded algebra structure, we introduce a…
We expand the notion of core to $cl$-core for Nakayama closures $cl$. In the characteristic $p>0$ setting, when $cl$ is the tight closure, denoted by *, we give some examples of ideals when the core and the *-core differ. We note that…
This article is a survey of closure operations on ideals in commutative rings, with an emphasis on structural properties and on using tools from one part of the field to analyze structures in another part. The survey is broad enough to…
We give short, closure-theoretic proofs for uniform bounds on the growth of symbolic powers of ideals in regular rings. The author recently proved these bounds in mixed characteristic using various versions of perfectoid/big Cohen-Macaulay…
We show that for ideals primary to a maximal ideal in a normal domain of finite type over the complex numbers, its tight closure is contained inside the continuous closure.
The goal of this article is to present the graded weakly $S$-primary ideals and $g$-weakly $S$-primary ideals which are extensions of graded weakly primary ideals. Let $R$ be a commutative graded ring, $S\subseteq h(R)$ and $P$ be a graded…
Closure operations such as tight and integral closure and test ideals have appeared frequently in the study of commutative algebra. This articles serves as a survey of the authors' prior results connecting closure operations, test ideals,…
We study a closure operator derived from the matrix endofunctor on the category of rings with unity. We investigate the invariance of various ring-theoretic properties under this operator. A key finding is the decisive nature of this…
We define a closure operation for rings of mixed characteristic and verify that the closure is a ring. We then show that this closure produces a ring with good properties with respect to its Fontaine ring and give an example to show that…
Suppose $J = (f_1, \dots, f_n)$ is an $n$-generated ideal in any ring $R$. We prove a general Brian\c{c}on-Skoda-type containment relating the integral closure $\overline{J^{n+k-1}}$ with ordinary powers $J^k$. We prove that our result…
Test ideals are an important concept in tight closure theory and their behavior via flat base change can be very difficult to understand. Our paper presents results regarding this behavior under flat maps with reasonably nice (but far from…
In this paper, we introduce the concept of $S$-B\'ezout ring, as a generalization of B\'ezout ring. We investigate the relationships between $S$-B\'ezout and other related classes of rings. We establish some characterizations of…
Let R be an integral domain and I a nonzero ideal of R. A sub-ideal J of I is a t-reduction of I if (JI^{n})_{t}=(I^{n+1})_{t} for some positive integer n. An element x in R is t-integral over I if there is an equation x^{n} + a_{1}x^{n-1}…
The aim of this paper is to introduce a new class of Noetherian rings of positive characteristic in terms of perfect closures and study their basic properties. If the perfect closure of a Noetherian ring is coherent, we call it an…
The aim of this series of papers is to study $z$-ideals of semirings. In this article, we introduce some distinguished classes of $z$-ideals of semirings, which include $z$-prime, $z$-semiprime, $z$-irreducible, and $z$-strongly irreducible…
An analogue of the theory of integral closure and reductions is developed for a more general class of closures, called Nakayama closures. It is shown that tight closure is a Nakayama closure by proving a ``Nakayama lemma for tight…
The core of an ideal is the intersection of all of its reductions. The core has geometric significance coming, for example, from its connection to adjoint and multiplier ideals. In general, though, the core is difficult to describe…
Among the several types of closures of an ideal $I$ that have been defined and studied in the past decades, the integral closure $\bar{I}$ has a central place being one of the earliest and most relevant. Despite this role, it is often a…
We consider closure properties in the class of positively decreasing distributions. Our results stem from different types of dependence, but each type belongs in the family of asymptotically independent dependence structure. Namely we…
