If R is a local ring of dimension n, of a smooth complex variety, and if I is a zero dimensional ideal in R, then we prove that e(I)\geq n^n/lc(I)^n. Here e(I) is the Samuel multiplicity along I, and lc(I) is the log canonical threshold of…

We prove that limits of multiplicities associated to graded families of ideals exist under very general conditions. Most of our results hold for analytically unramified equicharacteristic local rings, with perfect residue fields. We give a…

Let $R$ be a $d$-dimensional Noetherian local ring with maximal ideal $m_R$. In this article, we give a generalization of the multiplicity $e(I)$ of an $m_R$-primary ideal $I$ of $R$ to a multiplicity $e(\mathcal I)$ of a graded family of…

We prove a characterization of the j-multiplicity of a monomial ideal as the normalized volume of a polytopal complex. Our result is an extension of Teissier's volume-theoretic interpretation of the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity for m-primary…

The main results of this paper interpret mixed volumes of lattice polytopes as mixed multiplicities of ideals and mixed multiplicities of ideals as Samuel's multiplicities. In particular, we can give a purely algebraic proof of Bernstein's…

Let $I$ be an arbitrary nonzero squarefree monomial ideal of dimension $d$ in a polynomial ring $S = \mathrm{k}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. Let $\mu$ be the number of associated primes of $S/I$ of dimension $d$. We prove that the multiplicity of…

In an analytically unramified local ring $(R,\mathfrak m)$ of dimension $d\geq 1$, for a filtration of ideals $\mathfrak {I}=\{I_m\}_{m\in\mathbb N}$ satisfying $\mathfrak A(r)$ condition and for any $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal $K$, it is…

In recent years, a multiplier ideal defined on arbitrary varieties, so called Mather multiplier ideal, has been developed independently by Ein-Ishii-Mustata, and de Fernex-Docampo. With this new tool, we have a chance of extending some…

On any compact manifold of dimension greater than 4, we prescribe the volume and any finite part of the spectrum of the Witten Laplacian acting on $p$-form for $0<p<n$. In particular, we prescribe the multiplicity of the first eigenvalues.…

Let $R = \mathbb{K}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$, and let $I \subseteq R$ be a monomial ideal of height $h$. We provide a formula for the multiplicity of the powers of $I$ when all the primary ideals of…

We show how multiplier ideals can be used to obtain uniform multiplicative bounds for certain families of ideals on a smooth complex algebraic variety. In particular we prove a quick but rather surprising result about symbolic powers of…

Mazur's fundamental work on Eisenstein ideals of prime level has a variety of arithmetic applications. In this article, we generalize some of his work to square-free level. More specifically, we attempt to compute the index of an Eisenstein…

We show that the mixed volumes of arbitrary convex bodies are equal to mixed multiplicities of graded families of monomial ideals, and to normalized limits of mixed multiplicities of monomial ideals. This result evinces the close relation…

We give formulas for the multiplicity of any affine isolated zero of a generic polynomial system of n equations in n unknowns with prescribed sets of monomials. First, we consider sets of supports such that the origin is an isolated root of…

Let R be the local ring of a point on a variety X over an algebraically closed field k. We make a connection between the notion of mixed (Samuel) multiplicity of m-primary ideals in R and intersection theory of subspaces of rational…

This article investigates the computational aspects of the $\varepsilon$-multiplicity. Primarily, we show that the $\varepsilon$-multiplicity of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a two-dimensional standard graded domain of finite type over an…

We show the existence (and define) the mixed multiplicities of arbitrary graded families of ideals under mild assumptions. In particular, our methods and results are valid for the case of arbitrary $\mathfrak{m}$-primary graded families.…
