Test ideals were first introduced by Mel Hochster and Craig Huneke in their celebrated theory of tight closure, and since their invention have been closely tied to the theory of Frobenius splittings. Subsequently, test ideals have also…
We prove that the finitistic test ideal $\tau_{\rm fg}(R, \Delta, \mathfrak{a}^t)$ coincides with the big test ideal $\tau_{\rm b}(R, \Delta, \mathfrak{a}^t)$ if the pair $(R,\Delta)$ is numerically log $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein.
Motivated by some recent results of F. P\'erez and R. R.G connecting test ideal of module closure operations and trace ideals, we investigate the test ideal restricted to principal ideals corresponding to a module closure operation of a…
By definition, an $\m$-primary ideal $I$ in a 2-dimensional regular local ring $(R, \m)$ is contracted if $I=R \cap IR[\m/x]$ for some $x \in \m \setminus \m^2$. Contracted ideals have been introduced by Zariski and used for proving the…
An analogue of the theory of integral closure and reductions is developed for a more general class of closures, called Nakayama closures. It is shown that tight closure is a Nakayama closure by proving a ``Nakayama lemma for tight…
We generalize a Brian\c{c}on-Skoda type theorem first studied by Aberbach and Huneke. With some conditions on a regular local ring $(R,\m)$ containing a field, and an ideal $I$ of $R$ with analytic spread $\ell$ and a minimal reduction $J$,…
Let R be an integral domain and I a nonzero ideal of R. A sub-ideal J of I is a t-reduction of I if (JI^{n})_{t}=(I^{n+1})_{t} for some positive integer n. An element x in R is t-integral over I if there is an equation x^{n} + a_{1}x^{n-1}…
Hara and Smith independently proved that in a normal $\mQ$-Gorenstein ring of characteristic $p \gg 0$, the test ideal coincides with the multiplier ideal associated to the trivial divisor. We extend this result for a pair $(R, \Delta)$ of…
Suppose $(X, \Delta)$ is a log-$\bQ$-Gorenstein pair. Recent work of M. Blickle and the first two authors gives a uniform description of the multiplier ideal $\mJ(X;\Delta)$ (in characteristic zero) and the test ideal $\tau(X;\Delta)$ (in…
We introduce an operation on modules over an $F$-finite ring of characteristic $p$. We call this operation \emph{tight interior}. While it exists more generally, in some cases this operation is equivalent to the Matlis dual of tight…
The Brian\c{c}on-Skoda theorem in its many versions has been studied by algebraists for several decades. In this paper, under some assumptions on an F-rational local ring $(R,\m)$, and an ideal $I$ of $R$ of analytic spread $\ell$ and…
We study prime ideals in skew power series rings $T:=R[[y;\tau,\delta]]$, for suitably conditioned right noetherian complete semilocal rings $R$, automorphisms $\tau$ of $R$, and $\tau$-derivations $\delta$ of $R$. These rings were…
Hara and Yoshida introduced a notion of $\aaa$-tight closure in 2003, and they proved that the test ideals given by this operation correspond to multiplier ideals. However, their operation is not a true closure. The alternative operation…
We prove that in normal rings the tight closure of an ideal can be computed as the sum of the ideal and a piece of the tight closure, called the special tight closure.
This paper is concerned with existence of big tight closure test elements for a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ of prime characteristic $p$. Let $R^{\circ}$ denote the complement in $R$ of the union of the minimal prime ideals of $R$. A big…
We give a new elementary proof of Landau's Prime Ideal Theorem. The proof is an extension of Richter's proof of the Prime Number Theorem. The main result contains other results related to the equidistribution of the prime ideal counting…
We establish a series of results showing that the Jacobian ideal is contained in the test ideal. We first prove a new result in characteristic $p$ for complete rings over a field $K$. Then we prove some results showing that Jacobian ideals…
In this paper, the structure of the ideals in the ring of Colombeau generalized numbers is investigated. Connections with the theories of exchange rings, Gelfand rings and lattice-ordered rings are given. Characterizations for prime,…
Continuing ideas of a recent preprint of Schwede arXiv:0906.4313 we study test ideals by viewing them as minimal objects in a certain class of $F$-pure modules over algebras of p^{-e}-linear operators. This shift in the viewpoint leads to a…
Suppose $J = (f_1, \dots, f_n)$ is an $n$-generated ideal in any ring $R$. We prove a general Brian\c{c}on-Skoda-type containment relating the integral closure $\overline{J^{n+k-1}}$ with ordinary powers $J^k$. We prove that our result…
