Every finite local principal ideal ring is the homomorphic image of a discrete valuation ring of a number field, and is determined by five invariants. We present an action of a group, non-commutative in general, on the set of Eisenstein…
Let A be a symmetric monoidal closed exact category. This category is a natural framework to define the notions of purity and flatness. We show that an object F in A is flat if and only if any conflation ending in F is pure. Furthermore, we…
Consider a pair $(R, \ba^t)$ where $R$ is a ring of positive characteristic, $\ba$ is an ideal such that $a \cap $R^{\circ} \neq \emptyset$, and $t > 0$ is a real number. In this situation we have the ideal $\tau_R(\ba^t)$, the generalized…
Given a definably compact group G in a saturated o-minimal structure, there is a canonical homomorphism from G to a compact real Lie group F(G). We establish a similar result for the (o-mininimal) universal cover of a definably compact…
We study the perfectoid pure threshold with respect to $p$, an invariant of singularities in mixed characteristic $(0,p)$ arising from perfectoid purity. In this paper, we compute perfectoid pure thresholds for lifts of rational double…
Let F be a homogeneous real polynomial of even degree in any number of variables. We consider the problem of giving explicit conditions on the coefficients so that F is positive definite or positive semi-definite. In this note we produce a…
We study the relative Frobenius map associated with a map of derived commutative rings over a field of positive characteristic. As part of this, we examine a relative analog of perfectness and construct a relative inverse limit perfection…
Let $(X,B)$ be a pair of a normal surface over a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$ and an effective $\mathbb{Q}$-divisor $B$ on $X$. We prove that Steenbrink-type vanishing holds for $(X,B)$ if it is log canonical and $p>5$, or it is…
A ring $R$ is feckly clean provided that for any $a\in R$ there exists an element $e\in R$ and a full element $u\in R$ such that $a=e+u, eR(1-e)\subseteq J(R)$. We prove that a ring $R$ is feckly clean if and only if for any $a\in R$, there…
Let $P$ and $T$ be disjoint sets of prime numbers with $T$ finite. A simple formula is given for the natural density of the set of square-free numbers which are divisible by all of the primes in $T$ and by none of the primes in $P$. If $P$…
Let Y ~ Y_d(n,p) denote the Bernoulli random d-dimensional simplicial complex. We answer a question of Linial and Meshulam from 2003, showing that the threshold for vanishing of homology H_{d-1}(Y; Z) is less than 80d log n / n. This bound…
We determine the density of monic integer polynomials of given degree $n>1$ that have squarefree discriminant; in particular, we prove for the first time that the lower density of such polynomials is positive. Similarly, we prove that the…
Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, and $S$ an scheme over $k$. An $F$-zip is basically a locally free $O_S$-module of finite rank endowed with two filtration and an Frobenius-linear isomorphism between their graded pieces.…
The a-invariant, the F-pure threshold, and the diagonal F-threshold are three important invariants of a graded K-algebra. Hirose, Watanabe, and Yoshida have conjectured relations among these invariants for strongly F-regular rings. In this…
For a numerical semigroup ring $K[H]$ we study the trace of its canonical ideal. The colength of this ideal is called the residue of $H$. This invariant measures how far is $H$ from being symmetric, i.e. $K[H]$ from being a Gorenstein ring.…
We propose an effective method for primary decomposition of symmetric ideals. Let $K[X]=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the $n$-valuables polynomial ring over a field $K$ and $\mathfrak{S}_n$ the symmetric group of order $n$. We consider the…
Let X be a complete toric variety with homogeneous coordinate ring S. In this article, we compute upper and lower bounds for the codimension in the critical degree of ideals of S generated by dim(X)+1 homogeneous polynomials that don't…
Suppose $R$ is a $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein $F$-finite and $F$-pure ring of prime characteristic $p>0$. We show that if $I\subseteq R$ is a compatible ideal (with all $p^{-e}$-linear maps) then there exists a module finite extension $R\to S$…
We say that an ideal I is homogeneous, if its restriction to any I-positive subset is isomorphic to I. The paper investigates basic properties of this notion -- we give examples of homogeneous ideals and present some applications to…
The purpose of this paper is to extend the symmetry of maximals of the ring of a germ of reducible plane curve proved by Delgado to a relation between the relative maximals of a fractional ideal and the absolute maximals of its dual for any…
