We prove a versions of amplitude inequalities of Iversen, Foxby and Iyengar, and Frankild and Sather-Wagstaff that replace finite generation conditions with adic finiteness conditions. As an application, we prove that a local ring $R$ of…

We show that the Hilbert-Kunz density function of a quadric hypersurface of Krull dimension $n+1$ is a piecewise polynomial on a subset of $[0, n]$, whose complement in $[0, n]$ has measure zero. Our explicit description of the Hilbert-Kunz…

We show that a ring R has stable range one if and only if every left unit lifts modulo every left principal ideal. We also show that a left quasi-morphic ring has stable range one if and only if it is left uniquely generated. Thus we answer…

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},K)$ be an $F$-finite Noetherian local ring which has a canonical ideal $I \subsetneq R$. We prove that if $R$ is $S_2$ and $H^{d-1}_{\mathfrak{m}}(R/I)$ is a simple $R\{F\}$-module, then $R$ is a strongly $F$-regular…

In this paper, we consider Anderson type operators on a separable Hilbert space where the random perturbations are finite rank and the random variables have full support on $\mathbb{R}$. We show that spectral multiplicity has a uniform…

We prove that, for any $n\geq 0$, there exists an uncountable, $n$-dimensional, excellent, regular local ring with countable spectrum.

The goal of this note is to record the following curious fact: let $(S,\n)$ be an unramified regular local ring of mixed characteristic $p>0$ and dimension $d$. Let $L$ denote the quotient field of $S$ and $K=L(\omega)$ with $\omega^p\in…

Let $R$ be an excellent Noetherian ring of prime characteristic. Consider an arbitrary nested pair of ideals (or more generally, a nested pair of submodules of a fixed finite module). We do \emph{not} assume that their quotient has finite…

In this paper we determine the possible Hilbert functions of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$, multiplicity $e$ and first Hilbert coefficient $e_1$ in the case $e_1 = e + 2$.

The aim of this manuscript is to discuss the Hilbert-Kunz functions over an excellent local ring regular in codimension one. We study the shape of the Hilbert-Kunz functions of modules and discuss the properties of the coefficient of the…

We prove that if R is a Hensel local ring with infinite residue field k, the natural map H_i(GL(n,R),Z/p) ---> H_i(GL(n,k),Z/p) is an isomorphism for i <=3, p distinct from char(k). This implies rigidity for H_i(GL_n), i <=3, which in turn…

In a formally unmixed Noetherian local ring, if the colength and multiplicity of an integrally closed ideal agree, then $R$ is regular. We deduce this using the relationship between multiplicity and various ideal closure operations.

We prove a generalization of the Hochster-Roberts-Boutot-Kawamata Theorem conjectured by Aschenbrenner and the author: let $R\to S$ be a pure homomorphism of equicharacteristic zero Noetherian local rings. If $S$ is regular, then $R$ is…

Bertin (1972) defined regularity for coherent local rings, and Knaf (2004) studied the property for a local ring $A$ essentially finitely presented over a valuation ring $V$. We discuss several properties of this notion of regularity for…

Thirty years ago, Huneke (for local rings) and Lyubeznik (in general) conjectured that for all regular rings $R$, the local cohomology modules $H^i_I(R)$ have finitely many associated prime ideals. We prove substantial new cases of their…

We exhibit a class of Hibi rings which are diagonally F-regular over fields of positive characteristic, and diagonally $F$-regular type over fields of characteristic zero, in the sense of Carvajal-Rojas and Smolkin. It follows that such…

We give short, closure-theoretic proofs for uniform bounds on the growth of symbolic powers of ideals in regular rings. The author recently proved these bounds in mixed characteristic using various versions of perfectoid/big Cohen-Macaulay…

We introduce the class weakly nil clean rings, as rings R in which for every a\in R there exist an idempotent e and a nilpotent q such that a-e-q\in eRa. Every weakly nil clean ring is exchange. Weakly nil clean rings contain pi-regular…

A new class of rings, {\em the class of weakly left localizable rings}, is introduced. A ring $R$ is called {\em weakly left localizable} if each non-nilpotent element of $R$ is invertible in some left localization $S^{-1}R$ of the ring…

In this paper we prove quantitative regularity results for stationary and minimizing extrinsic biharmonic maps. As an application, we determine sharp, dimension independent $L^p$ bounds for $\nabla^k f$ that do not require a small energy…
