For two ideals $I$ and $J$ of a noetherian ring, we characterize, in terms of the vanishing of Tor modules, when the associated graded ring of the sum $I+J$ is isomorphic to the tensor product of the associated graded ring of $I$ and the…

Let I be a complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R,m). In the case where R has dimension two, the beautiful theory developed by Zariski implies that I factors uniquely as a product of powers of simple complete ideals and each of…

In this paper we extend a result of Cowsik on set-theoretic complete intersection and a result Huneke, Morales and Goto and Nishida about Noetherian symbolic Rees algebras of ideals. As applications, we show that the symbolic Rees algebras…

In this paper, we consider a finite, torsion-free module $E$ over a Gorenstein local ring. We provide sufficient conditions for $E$ to be of linear type and for the Rees algebra $\mathcal{R}(E)$ of $E$ to be Cohen-Macaulay. Our results are…

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be an unmixed Noetherian local ring, Q a parameter ideal and $K$ an $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal of $R$ containing $Q$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for $R$ to be Cohen-Macaulay in terms of $g_0(Q)$ and…

Let $D$ be a 2-dimensional regular local ring and let $Q(D)$ denote the quadratic tree of 2-dimensional regular local overrings of $D$. We examine the Noetherian rings that are intersections of rings in $Q(D)$. To do so, we describe the…

In this paper we give several classes of Non-Gorenstein local rings $A$ which satisfy the property that $\text{Ext}^i_A(M, A) = 0$ for $i \gg 0$ then $\text{projdim}_A M$ is finite. We also show that if $\text{injdim}_A M = \infty$ then…

By a theorem of Roberts, the integral closure of a regular local ring in a finite abelian extension of its fraction field is Cohen-Macaulay, provided that the degree of the extension is coprime to the characteristic of the residue field. We…

Broadening existing results in the literature to much wider classes of rings, we prove among other things: 1. Reduced quotients of excellent regular rings of characteristic $p$ admit big test elements, 2. The set of F-jumping numbers of a…

We construct explicitly a resolution of a fan algebra of principal ideals over a Noetherian ring for the case when the fan is a proper rational cone in the plane. Under some mild conditions on the initial data, we show that this resolution…

In this paper, we introduce generalized Gorenstein local (GGL) rings. The notion of GGL rings is a natural generalization of the notion of almost Gorenstein rings, which can thus be treated as part of the theory of GGL rings. For a…

The aim of this paper is threefold: first, to prove that the endomorphism ring associated to a pure subring of a regular local ring is a noncommutative crepant resolution if it is maximal Cohen-Macaulay; second, to see that in that…

In this paper we describe the defining equations of the Rees algebra and the special fiber ring of a truncation I of a complete intersection ideal in a polynomial ring over a field with homogeneous maximal ideal m. To describe explicitly…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring such that $\widehat{R}$ is reduced. We prove that, when $\widehat{R}$ is $S_2$, if there exists a parameter ideal $Q\subseteq R$ such that $\bar{e}_1(Q)=0$, then $R$ is regular and…

There is a well known link from the first topic in the title to the third one. In this paper we thread that link through the second topic. The central result is a criterion for the tensor nilpotence of morphisms of perfect complexes over…

In this article, we compute the regularity of Rees algebra of binomial edge ideals of closed graphs. We obtain a lower bound for the regularity of Rees algebra of binomial edge ideals. We also study some algebraic properties of the Rees…

In the present paper we investigate a question stemming from a long-standing conjecture of Vasconcelos: given a generically a complete intersection perfect ideal I in a regular local ring R, is it true that if I/I^2 (or R/I^2) is…

A rational map whose source and image are projectively embedded varieties has an {\em Arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay graph} if the Rees algebra of one (hence any) of its base ideals is a Cohen-Macaulay ring. If the map is birational onto the…

Let I be the ideal of minors of a 2 by n matrix of linear forms with the expected codimension. In this paper we prove that the Rees algebra of I and its special fiber ring are Cohen-Macaulay and Koszul; in particular, they are quadratic…

Let $(R,\m,k)$ be a local (Noetherian) ring of positive prime characteristic $p$ and dimension $d$. Let $G_\dt$ be a minimal resolution of the residue field $k$, and for each $i\ge 0$, let $\gothic t_i(R) = \lim_{e\to \8}…
