Let $R$ be a commutative $G$-graded ring with a nonzero unity. In this article, we introduce the concept of graded radically principal ideals. A graded ideal $I$ of $R$ is said to be graded radically principal if $Grad(I)=Grad(\langle…

Given a 0-dimensional affine K-algebra R=K[x_1,...,x_n]/I, where I is an ideal in a polynomial ring K[x_1,...,x_n] over a field K, or, equivalently, given a 0-dimensional affine scheme, we construct effective algorithms for checking whether…

In this article we study two classes of integral domains. The first is characterized by having a finite intersection of principal ideals being finitely generated only when it is principal. The second class consists of the integral domains…

A central question in mathematics and computer science is the question of determining whether a given ideal $I$ is prime, which geometrically corresponds to the zero set of $I$, denoted $Z(I)$, being irreducible. The case of principal…

The core of an ideal is the intersection of all its reductions. For large classes of ideals I we explicitly describe the core as a colon ideal of a power of a single reduction and a power of I.

Let $A$ be a two-dimensional excellent normal Gorenstein local domain. In this paper, we characterize elliptic ideals $I \subset A$ for its normal tangent cone $\overline{G}(I)$ to be Gorenstein. Moreover, we classify all those ideals in a…

We consider complete intersection ideals in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero that are stable under the action of the symmetric group permuting the variables. We determine the possible representation types for these…

We are interested in the structure of almost complete intersection ideals of grade 3. We give three constructions of these ideals and their free resolutions: one from the commutative algebra point of view, an equivariant construction giving…

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be an analytically unramified local ring of positive prime characteristic $p.$ For an ideal $I$, let $I^*$ denote its tight closure. We introduce the tight Hilbert function $H^*_I(n)=\ell(R/(I^n)^*)$ and the…

For a set $E\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ that contains the origin we consider $I^m(E)$ -- the set of all $m^{\text{th}}$ degree Taylor approximations (at the origin) of $C^m$ functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$ that vanish on $E$. This set is a proper…

Let $(A,\mathfrak m)$ be a two-dimensional excellent normal Gorenstein local domain containing an algebraically closed filed. Let $I =H^0(X,\mathcal{O}_X(-Z)) \subset A$ be an $\mathfrak m$-primary integrally closed ideal represented by an…

Can one tell if an ideal is radical just by looking at the degrees of the generators? In general, this is hopeless. However, there are special collections of degrees in multigraded polynomial rings, with the property that any multigraded…

Let $S = \mathsf{k}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$, $I$ be an ideal of $S$, and $\bar{I}$ denote its integral closure. A conjecture of K\"{u}ronya and Pintye states that for any homogeneous ideal $I$ of $S$, the inequality $\operatorname{reg}(\bar{I})…

We show that for ideals primary to a maximal ideal in a normal domain of finite type over the complex numbers, its tight closure is contained inside the continuous closure.

The symbolic powers $I^{(n)}$ of a radical ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring consist of the functions that vanish up to order $n$ in the variety defined by $I$. These do not necessarily coincide with the ordinary algebraic powers $I^n$, but it…

Let $A$ be a Noetherian ring and let $I$ be an ideal in $A$. Let $\mathcal{F} = \{ J_n \}_{n \geq 0}$ be a multiplicative filtration of ideals in $A$ such that $\mathcal{R}(\mathcal{F}) = \bigoplus_{n \geq 0} J_n$ is a finitely generated…

In this paper, using the canonical correspondence between the idempotents and clopens, we obtain several new results on lifting idempotents. The Zariski clopens of the maximal spectrum are precisely determined, then as an application,…

In this article we give explicit descriptions of the multiplicities of some classes of monomial ideals. For instance, we give a formula for the multiplicities of all codimension 1 monomial ideals, and another formula for the multiplicities…

In the first part of this paper we study scrollers and linearly joined varieties. A particular class of varieties, of important interest in classical Geometry are Cohen--Macaulay varieties of minimal degree. They appear naturally studying…

Let $I_A \subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be a toric ideal. In this paper, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the toric variety $V(I_A)$, over an algebraically closed field, to be expressed as the set-theoretic intersection of…
