Suppose that $X = \Spec R$ is an $F$-finite normal variety in characteristic $p > 0$. In this paper we show that the big test ideal $\tau_b(R) = \tld \tau(R)$ is equal to $\sum_{\Delta} \tau(R; \Delta)$ where the sum is over $\Delta$ such…
We prove a theorem which gives a bijection between the support $\tau$-tilting modules over a given finite-dimensional algebra $A$ and the support $\tau$-tilting modules over $A/I$, where $I$ is the ideal generated by the intersection of the…
We introduce the notion of strong test module and show that a large number of such modules appear in the tight closure theory of complete domains: the test ideal (this has already been known), the parameter test module, and the module of…
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…
We use geometric and cohomological methods to show that given a degree bound for membership in ideals of a fixed degree type in the polynomial ring P=k[x_0,..., x_d], one obtains a good generic degree bound for membership in the tight…
We show that the reduction to positive characteristic of the multiplier ideal in the sense of de Fernex and Hacon agrees with the test ideal for infinitely many primes, assuming that the variety is numerically Q-Gorenstein. It follows, in…
We first give simplified and corrected accounts of some results in \cite{PiRCP} on compactifications of pseudofinite groups. For instance, we use a classical theorem of Turing \cite{Turing} to give a simplified proof that any definable…
We associate to every equicharacteristic zero Noetherian local ring $R$ a faithfully flat ring extension which is an ultraproduct of rings of various prime characteristics, in a weakly functorial way. Since such ultraproducts carry…
Consider a pair $(R, \ba^t)$ where $R$ is a ring of positive characteristic, $\ba$ is an ideal such that $a \cap $R^{\circ} \neq \emptyset$, and $t > 0$ is a real number. In this situation we have the ideal $\tau_R(\ba^t)$, the generalized…
We study the ideals of the closure of the polynomial multipliers on the Drury-Arveson space. Structural results are obtained by investigating the relation between an ideal and its weak-$*$ closure, much in the spirit of the corresponding…
Let $R$ be a reduced affine $\mathbb C$-algebra, with corresponding affine algebraic set $X$. Let $\mathcal C(X)$ be the ring of continuous (Euclidean topology) $\mathbb C$-valued functions on $X$. Brenner defined the \emph{continuous…
We exhibit a new subadditivity formula for test ideals on singular varieties using an argument similar to those of Demailly-Ein-Lazarsfeld and Hara-Yoshida. Any subadditivity formula for singular varieties must have a correction term that…
For a reduced Noetherian ring $R$ of characteristic $p > 0$, in this paper we discuss an extension of $R$ called its perfect closure $R^\infty$. This extension contains all $p^e$-th roots of elements of $R$, and is usually non-Noetherian.…
For a normal F-finite variety $X$ and a boundary divisor $\Delta$ we give a uniform description of an ideal which in characteristic zero yields the multiplier ideal, and in positive characteristic the test ideal of the pair $(X,\Delta)$.…
Let R be a commutative ring with identity. In this paper, we introduce the concept of (m, n)-closed ideals of R and (m, n)-von Neumann regular rings
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 present an algebro-geometric perspective on some generalizations, due to S. Takagi, of the restriction theorem for multiplier ideals. The first version of the restriction theorem for multiplier ideals was discovered by Esnault and…
We prove a characterization of F-rationality in terms of tight closure of products of parameter ideals. Our results are inspired by the theory of complete ideals for surfaces and, in particular, the fundamental results of Lipman-Teissier…
Let $R$ be a ring essentially of finite type over an $F$-finite field. Given an ideal $\mathfrak{a}$ and a principal Cartier module $M$ we introduce the notion of a $V$-filtration of $M$ along $\mathfrak{a}$. If $M$ is $F$-regular then this…
In this paper we present some results showing the good behavior of the $\tau$-invariant of a Rees algebra with integral closure and elimination (of variables).
