Let $(R, m)$ be a $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring. In this note we prove, in a very elementary way, an upper bound of the first normalized Hilbert coefficient of a $m$-primary ideal $I\subset R$ that improves all known upper…

Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ a strongly Cohen-Macaulay ideal of $R$. We show that $R/{\rm Ann}_R(I)$ is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module by means of the delta-invariant. Also it is shown that there exists a Cohen-Macaulay…

In this article we give an algorithm for computing the integral closure of a reduced Noetherian ring R, in case this integral closure is finitely generated over R.

Let R be a local Cohen-Macaulay ring, let I be an R-ideal, and let G be the associated graded ring of I. We give an estimate for the depth of G when G is not necessarily Cohen-Macaulay. We assume that I is either equimultiple, or has…

Let $D$ be an integrally closed local Noetherian domain of Krull dimension 2, and let $f$ be a nonzero element of $D$ such that $fD$ has prime radical. We consider when an integrally closed ring $H$ between $D$ and $D_f$ is determined…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$ and $J=(x_1,...,x_d)$ a minimal reduction of $I$. We show that if $J_{d-1}=(x_1,...,x_{d-1})$ and…

The structure of the complex $\operatorname{\mathbf{R}Hom}_R(R/I,R)$ is explored for an Ulrich ideal $I$ in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring $R$. As a consequence, it is proved that in a one-dimensional almost Gorenstein but non-Gorenstein local…

It is shown that if $R$ is a ring, $p$ a prime element of an integral domain $D\leq R$ with $\bigcap_{n=1}^\infty p^nD=0$ and $p\in U(R)$, then $R$ has a conch maximal subring (see \cite{faith}). We prove that either a ring $R$ has a conch…

This article discusses a way for uniquely setting up the valuations for the minimal generators of the maximal ideal of a one dimensional complete reduced and irreducible local algebra over an algebraically closed field, when treated as a…

Let (R, m) be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring and Q a parameter ideal of R. Suppose that an acyclic complex of length 3 which is an R-free resolution of an ideal I of R is given. In this paper, we describe a concrete procedure to get an acyclic…

Let $(A, \mathfrak m)$ be a normal two-dimensional local ring and $I$ an $\mathfrak m$-primary integrally closed ideal with a minimal reduction $Q$. Then we calculate the numbers: $\mathrm{nr}(I) = \min\{n \;|\; \overline{I^{n+1}} =…

We present an algorithm for computing the integral closure of a reduced ring that is finitely generated over a finite field.

Expanding on the work of Fouli and Vassilev \cite{FV}, we determine a formula for the *-$\rm{core}$ of an ideal in two different settings: (1) in a Cohen--Macaulay local ring of characteristic $p>0$, perfect residue field and test ideal of…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d \geq 3$ and let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in $A$. If $I$ is an ideal in $A$ then let $I^*$ be the integral closure of $I$…

Let $(R, \frak m)$ denote a local Cohen-Macaulay ring and $I$ a non-nilpotent ideal of $R$. The purpose of this article is to investigate Faltings' finiteness dimension $f_I(R)$ and equidimensionalness of certain homomorphic image of $R$.…

We establish strong relationships between the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and the Ratliff-Rush closure of an ideal. Our results have several interesting consequences on the computation of the Ratliff-Rush closure, the stability of the…
