We provide a formula for $F$-thresholds of a Thom-Sebastiani type polynomial over a perfect field of prime characteristic. This result extends the formula for the $F$-pure threshold of a diagonal hypersurface. We also compute the first test…
In this work we define a numerical invariant called $F$-volume. This number extends the definition of $F$-threshold of a pair of ideals $I$ and $J$, $c^J(I)$ to a sequence of ideals $J$, $I_1, \ldots, I_t$. We obtain several properties that…
We introduce and study a log discrepancy function on the space of semivaluations centered on an integral noetherian scheme of positive characteristic. Our definition shares many properties with the analogue in characteristic zero; we prove…
The goal of this paper is a classification theorem of the singularities according to a new invariant, Mather discrepancy. On the other hand, we show some evidences convincing us that Mather discrepancy is a considerable invariant: By…
In this paper we focus on pairs consisting of the affine $N$-space and multiideals with a positive exponent. We introduce a method "lifting to characteristic 0" which is a kind of the inversion of "modulo p reduction". By making use of it,…
We study $F$-graded systems of ideals in $R$, which are sequences of ideals giving rise to Cartier algebras on $R$. We identify how properties of these systems (or modifications of these systems) affect the singularity properties of the…
There are two well known tasks, related to Newton polyhedra: to study invariants of singularities in terms of their Newton polyhedra, and to describe Newton polyhedra of resultants and discriminants. We introduce so called resultantal…
We prove that certain roots of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial (i.e. b-function) are jumping coefficients up to a sign, showing a partial converse of a theorem of L. Ein, R. Lazarsfeld, K.E. Smith, and D. Varolin. We also prove that certain…
Based on previous work by the author we deduce that the invariant introduced by Bierstone and Milman in order to give a proof for constructive resolution of singularities in characteristic zero can be determined purely by considering…
Known Bernstein-type upper bounds on the tail probabilities for sums of independent zero-mean sub-exponential random variables are improved in several ways at once. The new upper bounds have a certain optimality property.
This is Part II of the series of our papers under the title "Toward resolution of singularities over a field of positive characteristic (The Idealistic Filtration Program)". See http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0607009 for Part I.
In this note, we derive a formula for the F-pure threshold of diagonal hypersurfaces over a perfect field of prime characteristic. We also calculate the associated test ideal at the F-pure threshold, and give formulas for higher jumping…
We define the dual F-signature of modules, which is equivalent to the F-signature if the module is the base ring. By using this invariant, We give characterizations of regular, F-regular, F-rational, and Gorenstein singularities.
By using logarithmic $\mathcal D$-modules and Gr\"obner bases, we prove that Bernstein-Sato ideals satisfy some symmetric intersection property, answering a question posed by Budur. As an application, we obtain a formula for the…
Let $G$ be a linearly reductive group acting on a vector space $V$, and $f$ a (semi-)invariant polynomial on $V$. In this paper we study systematically decompositions of the Bernstein-Sato polynomial of $f$ in parallel with some…
We show that each direct summand of the associated graded module of the test module filtration $\tau(M, f^\lambda)_{\lambda \geq 0}$ admits a natural Cartier structure. If $\lambda$ is an $F$-jumping number, then this Cartier structure is…
The main focus of this paper is on the problem of relating an ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $\mathbb Q[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ to a corresponding ideal in $\mathbb F_p[x_1,\dots, x_n]$ where $p$ is a prime number; in other words, the…
We study the relation between zero loci of Bernstein-Sato ideals and roots of b-functions and obtain a criterion to guarantee that roots of b-functions of a reducible polynomial are determined by the zero locus of the associated…
Given a hypersurface defined by $f$ in a smooth complex algebraic variety $X$, and a point $P$ on this hypersurface, we consider the invariant $\beta_P(f)$ given by the log canonical threshold at $P$ of ${\mathfrak m}_P\cdot J_f$, where…
The paper is an extensive and systematic study of cardinal invariants we call slalom numbers, describing the combinatorics of sequences of sets of natural numbers. Our general approach, based on relational systems, covers many such cardinal…
