In this paper, given a simple linear recurrence sequence of algebraic numbers, which has either a dominant characteristic root or exactly two characteristic roots of maximal modulus, we give some explicit lower bounds for the index beyond…

Let $R=k[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $k$ of characteristic $p>0,$ and let $I=(f_1,...,f_s)$ be an ideal of $R.$ We prove that every associated prime $P$ of $H^i_I(R)$ satisfies $\text{dim}R/P\geqslant…

This paper mainly focuses on commutative local domains of dimension one. We then obtain a criterion for a ring to have a finite number of trace ideals in terms of integrally closed ideals. We also explore properties of such rings related to…

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. Lindo and Pande have recently posed the question asking when every ideal of R is isomorphic to some trace ideal of R. This paper studies this question and gives several answers. In particular, a…

Monomial ideals and toric rings are closely related. By consider a Grobner basis we can always associated to any ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring a monomial ideal ${\rm in}_\prec I$, in some special situations the monomial ideal ${\rm…

Let $L$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field $F$. It is well known that the solvable radical $S(L)$ of the algebra $L$ is a characteristic ideal of $L$ if $\char F=0$ and there are counterexamples to this statement in case…

The natural logarithm can be represented by an infinite series that converges for all positive real values of the variable, and which makes concavity patently obvious. Concavity of the natural logarithm is known to imply, among other…

Let R be a one-dimensional local Noetherian domain, which is supposed analytically irreducible and residually rational, and let I be a proper ideal of R. Our purpose is to study the two numbers l(I^*/R)-l(R/I) and rl(R/I)-l(I^*/R) (l…

It is proved that the global log canonical threshold of a Zariski general Fano complete intersection of index 1 and codimension $k$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ is equal to one, if $M\geqslant 2k+3$ and the maximum of the degrees of defining…

Let $(S, \mathfrak n) $ be a regular local ring and let $I \subseteq \mathfrak n^2 $ be a perfect ideal of $S. $ Sharp upper bounds on the minimal number of generators of $I$ are known in terms of the Hilbert function of $R=S/I. $ Starting…

In this paper we consider reduced (non-normal) commutative noetherian rings $R$. With the help of conductor ideals and trace ideals of certain $R$-modules we deduce a criterion for a reflexive $R$-module to be closed under multiplication…

Let $K$ be a number field, $\mathfrak{q}$ be an integral ideal, and $\mathrm{Cl}(\mathfrak{q})$ be the associated ray class group. Suppose $\mathrm{Cl}(\mathfrak{q})$ possesses a real exceptional character $\psi$, possibly principal, with a…

Let $(R,\fm)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of positive dimension $d$ and infinite residue field. Let $I$ be an $\fm$-primary ideal of $R$ and $J$ be a minimal reduction of $I$. In this paper we show that if $\widetilde{I^k}=I^k$ and…

We show that the global log canonical threshold of generic Fano complete intersections of index 1 and codimension $k$ in ${\mathbb P}^{M+k}$ is equal to 1 if $M\geqslant 3k+4$ and the highest degree of defining equations is at least 8. This…

We discuss invariants of Cohen-Macaulay local rings that admit a canonical module $\omega$. Attached to each such ring R, when $\omega$ is an ideal, there are integers--the type of R, the reduction number of $\omega$--that provide valuable…

We prove that the multiplicity of a filtration of a local ring satisfies various convexity properties. In particular, we show the multiplicity is convex along geodesics. As a consequence, we prove that the volume of a valuation is log…

If $X$ is an algebraic variety with at worst canonical singularities and $S$ is a $\Q$-Cartier hypersurface in $X$, the canonical threshold of the pair $(X,S)$ is the supremum of $c\in\R$ such that the pair $(X,cS)$ is canonical. We show…
