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 provide sharp lower bounds for the multiplicity of a local holomorphic foliation defined in a complex surface in terms of data associated to a germ of invariant curve. Then we apply our methods to invariant curves whose branches are…

We explore the equimultiplicity theory of the $F$-invariants Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity, $F$-signature, Frobenius Betti numbers, and Frobenius Euler characteristic over strongly $F$-regular rings. Techniques introduced in this article…

Let X be a smooth complex variety and Y be a closed subvariety of X, or more generally, a closed subscheme of X. We are interested in invariants attached to the singularities of the pair (X, Y). We discuss various methods to construct such…

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…

In this article we describe relations of the topology of closed 1-forms to the group theoretic invariants of Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz. Starting with a survey, we extend these Sigma invariants to finite CW- complexes and show that many…

We develop new methods to study $\mathfrak{m}$-adic stability in an arbitrary Noetherian local ring. These techniques are used to prove results about the behavior of Hilbert-Samuel and Hilbert-Kunz multiplicities under fine…

This paper gives new bounds on the first Hilbert coefficient of an ideal of finite colength in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring. The bound given is quadratic in the multiplicity of the ideal. We compare our bound to previously known bounds, and…

Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring. We define the minimal $j$-multiplicity and almost minimal $j$-multiplicity of an arbitrary $R$-ideal on any finite $R$-module. For any ideal $I$ with minimal $j$-multiplicity or almost minimal…

We establish a regularity result for optimal sets of the isoperimetric problem with double density under mild ($\alpha$-)H\"older regularity assumptions on the density functions. Our main Theorem improves some previous results and allows to…

The first two Hilbert coefficients of a primary ideal play an important role in commutative algebra and in algebraic geometry. In this paper we give a complete algebraic structure of the Sally module of integrally closed ideals $I$ in a…

We provide a uniform vanishing result for the graded components of the finite length Koszul module associated to a subspace K inside the second exterior product of a vector space, as well as a sharp upper bound for its Hilbert function.…

We study the behavior of multidegrees in families and the existence of numerical criteria to detect integral dependence. We show that mixed multiplicities of modules are upper semicontinuous functions when taking fibers and that projective…

In this paper we explore the almost Cohen-Macaulayness of the associated graded ring of stretched $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals with small first Hilbert coefficient in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(A,\mathfrak{m})$. In particular, we…

We interpret Hilbert-Kunz theory of a graded ring of positive characteristic in terms of Frobenius asymptotic of cohomology of vector bundles on projective varieties. With this method we show that for almost all prime numbers there exist…

The results in the paper are related to the classification problem for invariant subspaces of multiplication operators in several variables. The main results consist of characterizations, in the two dimensional case, of ideals of…

In this paper we give new lower bounds on the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of unmixed non-regular local rings, bounding them uniformly away from one. Our results improve previous work of Aberbach and Enescu.

This note grew from the lectures I delivered at ICTP during the Summer School in honor of Hochster and Huneke. Its purpose is to provide an introduction to the notion of equimultiplicity (of numerical invariants of singularities/local…

We explore connections between the generalized multiplicities of square-free monomial ideals and the combinatorial structure of the underlying hypergraphs using methods of commutative algebra and polyhedral geometry. For instance, we show…

In this paper, we develop two new homological invariants called relative dominant dimension with respect to a module and relative codominant dimension with respect to a module. These are used to establish precise connections between Ringel…
