For an arbitrary ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R$ we define the notion of initially regular sequences on $R/I$. These sequences share properties with regular sequences. In particular, the length of an initially regular sequence provides a…

Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and let $M_{n,t}=(x^{e_1},\ldots, x^{e_n})$ be a monomial ideal of $R$, where $x^{e_i}=x_1^t\ldots x_{i-1}^tx_{i+1}^t\ldots x_n^t$. We study the unmixedness…

The F-threshold $c^J(\a)$ of an ideal $\a$ with respect to the ideal $J$ is a positive characteristic invariant obtained by comparing the powers of $\a$ with the Frobenius powers of $J$. We show that under mild assumptions, we can detect…

Let $k$ be any field. Let $R=k[[X_1,\ldots,X_d]]$ and $\frak p$ a $1$-dimensional prime ideal. In this note we present $d-1$ elements such as $f_1,\ldots,f_{d-1}$ in $\frak p$ such that $\mathfrak{p}=\text{rad}(f_1,\ldots,f_{d-1})$.

This paper studies mixed multiplicities of an arbitrary standard bigraded algebra and mixed multiplicities of two ideals I, J in a local ring (A,m), where I is an m-primary ideal and J an arbitrary ideal. The main results are criteria for…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d\geq 3$ and $I$ an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$. Let $r_J(I)$ be the reduction number of $I$ with respect to a minimal reduction $J$ of $I$. Suppose depth $G(I)\geq…

In this paper, we study the classes of rings in which every proper (regular) ideal can be factored as an invertible ideal times a nonempty product of proper radical ideals. More precisely, we investigate the stability of these properties…

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $A=K[x_1,...,x_n]$. We call a monomial ideal $J$ to be a minimal monomial reduction ideal of $I$ if there exists no proper monomial ideal $L \subset J$ such that $L$ is a reduction ideal of…

A distinguished family of completely prime primitive ideals in the universal enveloping algebra of a reductive Lie algebra ${\mathfrak g}$ over ${\mathbb C}$ are those ideals constructed from one-dimensional representations of finite…

We consider ideals in a polynomial ring that are generated by regular sequences of homogeneous polynomials and are stable under the action of the symmetric group permuting the variables. In previous work, we determined the possible…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity $(1\not=0)$ and let $\mathfrak{J}(R)$ be the set of all ideals of $R$. Let $\phi:\mathfrak{J}(R)\rightarrow\mathfrak{J}(R)\cup\{\emptyset\}$ be a reduction function of ideals of $R$ and let…

We express multiplicities and degree functions of graded families of $\mathfrak{m}_R$-primary ideals in an excellent normal local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m}_R)$ as limits of intersection products. Moreover, in dimension 2, we show more refined…

In 2007, Y. Shimoda, in connection with a long-standing question of J. Sally, asked whether a Noetherian local ring, such that all its prime ideals different from the maximal ideal are complete intersections, has Krull dimension at most…

Let $\{ R_n, {\mathfrak m}_n \}_{n \ge 0}$ be an infinite sequence of regular local rings with $R_{n+1}$ birationally dominating $R_n$ and ${\mathfrak m}_nR_{n+1}$ a principal ideal of $R_{n+1}$ for each $n$. We examine properties of the…

Let $(R,\frak m)$ be a commutative noetherian local ring. In this paper, we prove that if $\frak m$ is decomposable, then for any finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of infinite projective dimension $\frak m$ is a direct summand of (a direct…

The supremum of reduction numbers of ideals having principal reductions is expressed in terms of the integral degree, a new invariant of the ring, which is finite provided the ring has finite integral closure. As a consequence, one obtains…

It is well known that a domain without proper strongly divisorial ideals is completely integrally closed. In this paper we show that a domain without {\em prime} strongly divisorial ideals is not necessarily completely integrally closed,…

We introduce and investigate a class of ring ideals, termed ring $\mathrm{M}$-ideals, inspired by the Alfsen--Effros theory of $\mathrm{M}$-ideals in Banach spaces. We show that $\mathrm{M}$-ideals extend the classical notion of essential…

In this paper some results on the Lie structure of prime superalgebras are discussed. We prove that, with the exception of some special cases, for a prime superalgebra, $A$, over a ring of scalars $\Phi$ with $1/2\in \Phi$, if $L$ is a Lie…

In this paper we investigate the question of normality for special monomial ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. We first include some expository sections that give the basics on the integral closure of a ideal, the Rees algebra on an…
