Let R be a formal power series ring over a perfect field k of prime characteristic p, and let m be the maximal ideal of R. Suppose f is a non-zero element in m. In this paper, we introduce a function xi (x) associated with a hypersurface…
We compute the signature of the Milnor fiber of certain type of non-isolated complex surface singularities, namely, images of finitely determined holomorphic germs. An explicit formula is given in algebraic terms. As a corollary we show…
In this article we study F-pure thresholds (and, more generally, F-thresholds) of homogeneous polynomials in two variables over a field of characteristic p>0. Passing to a field extension, we factor such a polynomial into a product of…
Characterizing face-number-related invariants of a given class of simplicial complexes has been a central topic in combinatorial topology. In this regard, one of the well-known invariants is $g_2$. Let $K$ be a normal $3$-pseudomanifold…
We study two important numerical invariants, Hilbert--Kunz multiplicity and $F$-signature, on the spectrum of a Noetherian $\mathbf{F}_p$-algebra $R$ that is not necessarily $F$-finite. When $R$ is excellent, we show that the limits…
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 characterize atypical values at infinity of a real polynomial function of three variables by a certain sum of indices of the gradient vector field of the function restricted to a sphere with a sufficiently large radius. This is an…
We show that the F-signature of an F-finite local ring R of characteristic p >0 exists when R is either the localization of an $\mathbf{N}$-graded ring at its irrelevant ideal or $\mathbf{Q}$-Gorenstein on its punctured spectrum. This…
Let M be a two--dimensional complete intersection. We show how to check whether a mapping f: M-->R^2 is 1-generic with only folds and cusps as singularities. In this case we give an effective method to count the number of positive and…
In this paper we define and study the global Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and the global F-signature of prime characteristic rings which are not necessarily local. Our techniques are made meaningful by extending many known theorems about…
In this article, I give an iterative closed form formula for the Hilbert-Kunz function for any binomial hypersurface in general, over any feild of arbitrary positive characteristic. I prove that the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity associated to…
We define two related invariants for a $d$-dimensional local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ called syzygy and differential symmetric signature by looking at the maximal free splitting of reflexive symmetric powers of two modules: the top…
We characterize the set of properties of Boolean-valued functions on a finite domain $\mathcal{X}$ that are testable with a constant number of samples. Specifically, we show that a property $\mathcal{P}$ is testable with a constant number…
Assume that there exists a hypersurface singularity which cannot be resolved by iterated monoidal transformations in positive characteristic. We show that in the set of defining functions of hypersurface singularities which cannot be…
This is the author's Ph.D. thesis. We introduce two related invariants for local (and standard graded) rings called differential and syzygy symmetric signature. These are defined by looking at the maximal free splitting of the module of…
In characteristic zero, the Bernstein-Sato polynomial of a hypersurface can be described as the minimal polynomial of the action of an Euler operator on a suitable D-module. We consider the analogous D-module in positive characteristic, and…
In this paper, we compute the dual $F$-signatures of certain toric rings by using combinatorial techniques. Specifically, we calculate the dual $F$-signatures of Veronese subrings of polynomial rings. Moreover, we give an upper bound for…
We study singularities f in K[[x_1,...,x_n]] over an algebraically closed field K of arbitrary characteristic with respect to right respectively contact equivalence, and we establish that the finiteness of the Milnor respectively the…
We study the plus-pure threshold (ppt) of hypersurfaces in mixed characteristic. We show that the ppt limits to the $F$-pure threshold (fpt) as we ramify the base DVR. Additionally, we show that analogs of some positive characteristic…
