We show that every proper, dense ideal in a C*-algebra is contained in a prime ideal. It follows that a subset generates a C*-algebra as a not necessarily closed ideal if and only if it is not contained in any prime ideal. This allows us to…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity. In this note, we study the property: If $ I \subsetneqq J$ are ideals in $R$, then $ I^n \subsetneqq J^n$ for all $ n\geq 1$. We define the notion of a big ideal (Definition 1.2). It is noted…

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.

Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a prefect field of positive characteristic. Let $I$ be an unmixed ideal in $R$ and let $J$ be a generic link of $I$ in $S=R[u_{ij}]_{c \times r}$. We describe the parameter test submodule…

We study a family of determinantal ideals whose decompositions encode the structural zeros in conditional independence models with hidden variables. We provide explicit decompositions of these ideals and, for certain subclasses of models,…

Let $G$ be a locally compact group. We show how complemented ideals in the Fourier algebra $A(G)$ of $G$ arise naturally from a class of thin sets known as Leinert sets. Moreover, we also present an explicit example of a closed ideal in…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring with unity. The prime ideal sum graph of the ring $R$ is the simple undirected graph whose vertex set is the set of all nonzero proper ideals of $R$ and two distinct vertices $I$ and $J$ are adjacent if and…

Let F:K be a Galois extension of number fields and Q a prime ideal of O_F lying over the prime P of O_K. By analyzing the Q-adic closure of O_K in O_F we characterize those rings of integers O_K for which every residue class ring of…

We consider ideals $I$ in a Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta]$ over the simplical complex $\Delta$, such that the tight closure of $I$, $I^*$, is equal to $\mathfrak{m}$, the standard graded maximal ideal of $k[\Delta]$. We determine the…

Let $S$ be a polynomial ring over an algebraic closed field $k$ and $ \mathfrak p =(x,y,z,w) $ a homogeneous height four prime ideal. We give a finite characterization of the degree two component of ideals primary to $\mathfrak p$, with…

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…

Let I be a complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R,m). In the case where R has dimension two, the beautiful theory developed by Zariski implies that I factors uniquely as a product of powers of simple complete ideals and each of…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a local complete intersection ring and let $I$ be an ideal in $A$. Let $M, N$ be finitely generated $A$-modules. Then for $l = 0,1$, the values $depth \ Ext^{2i+l}_A(M, N/I^nN)$ become independent of $i, n$ for…

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a local ring and $I, J$ two arbitrary ideals of $R$. Let $\operatorname{gr}_J(R/I)$ denote the associated ring of $R/I$ with respect to $J$, which corresponds to the normal cone in geometry. The main result of this…

Let $\Bbbk$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $2$ and let $\mathfrak{fsl}(2)$ be the unique, up to isomorphism, $3$-dimensional simple Lie algebra over $\Bbbk$. Denote by $\mathfrak{m}$ the minimal $2$-envelope of…

We study the ring extensions R \subseteq T having the same set of prime ideals provided Nil(R) is a divided prime ideal. Some conditions are given under which no such T exist properly containing R. Using idealization theory, the examples…

For an ideal $I$ of a Noetherian local ring $(R,\fm,k)$ we show that $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)\geq -1$. It is demonstrated that some residual intersections of an ideal $I$ for which $\bt_1^R(I)-\bt_0^R(I)= -1\;\text{or}\;0$ are perfect. Some…

We show that the class of completely m-full ideals coincides with the class of componentwise linear ideals in a polynomial ring over an infinite field.

Stillman posed a question as to whether the projective dimension of a homogeneous ideal I in a polynomial ring over a field can be bounded by some formula depending only on the number and degrees of the minimal generators of I. More…

Let R be a commutative ring with identity and M be an R-module. A proper ideal I of R is said to be a $z^\circ$-ideal if for each $a \in I$ the intersection of all minimal prime ideals containing a is contained in I. The purpose of this…
