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.

We study the relationship between the tight closure of an ideal and the sum of all ideals in its linkage class.

In this paper, we introduce the notions of tight closure of ideals on Witt rings and quasi-tightly closedness of system of parameters. By using the notions, we obtain a characterization of quasi-$F$-rationality. Furthermore, we study the…

We prove that in normal rings the tight closure of an ideal can be computed as the sum of the ideal and a piece of the tight closure, called the special tight closure.

In this note, we use the theory of test ideals and Cartier algebras to examine the interplay between the tight and integral closures in a local ring of positive characteristic. Using work of Schwede, we prove the abundance of strong test…

We establish an inequality involving colengths of the tight closure of ideals of systems of parameters in local rings with some mild conditions. As an application, we prove and refine a result by Goto and Nakamura, conjectured by Watanabe…

Tight closure test ideals have been central to the classification of singularities in rings of characteristic $p>0$, and via reduction to characteristic $p$, in equal characteristic zero as well. A summary of their properties and…

An analogue of the theory of integral closure and reductions is developed for a more general class of closures, called Nakayama closures. It is shown that tight closure is a Nakayama closure by proving a ``Nakayama lemma for tight…

This paper establishes the fundamental properties of the $s$-closures, a recently introduced family of closure operations on ideals of rings of positive characteristic. The behavior of the $s$-closure of homogeneous ideals in graded rings…

We prove a characterization of F-rationality in terms of tight closure of products of parameter ideals. Our results are inspired by the theory of complete ideals for surfaces and, in particular, the fundamental results of Lipman-Teissier…

The purpose of this paper is to present a family of Cohen-Macaulay monomial ideals such that their integral closures have embedded components and hence are not Cohen-Macaulay.

We prove Union-Closed sets conjecture.

We define a duality operation connecting closure operations, interior operations, and test ideals, and describe how the duality acts on common constructions such as trace, torsion, tight and integral closures, and divisible submodules. This…

We characterize the rings in which the equality $(\tau I:\tau)= I^*$ holds for every ideal $I \subset R$. Under certain assumptions, these rings must be either weakly F-regular or one-dimensional.

We formulate problems of tight closure theory in terms of projective bundles and subbundles. This provides a geometric interpretation of such problems and allows us to apply intersection theory to them. This yields new results concerning…

We introduce a new variant of tight closure and give an interpretation of adjoint ideals via this tight closure. As a corollary, we prove that a log pair $(X,\Delta)$ is plt if and only if the modulo $p$ reduction of $(X,\Delta)$ is…

We describe some basic facts about the weak subintegral closure of ideals in both the algebraic and complex-analytic settings. We focus on the analogy between results on the integral closure of ideals and modules and the weak subintegral…

We prove that the tight closure and the graded plus closure of a homogeneous ideal coincide for a two-dimensional N-graded domain of finite type over the algebraic closure of a finite field. This answers in this case a ``tantalizing…

Closure operations such as tight and integral closure and test ideals have appeared frequently in the study of commutative algebra. This articles serves as a survey of the authors' prior results connecting closure operations, test ideals,…

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.
