Strong Watanabe-Yoshida conjecture for Complete Intersections

Commutative Algebra 2025-11-17 v3 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

In this paper, we prove the strong form of the Watanabe-Yoshida conjecture for complete intersection singularities in every positive characteristic. In characteristics 2 and 3, we explicitly compute the Hilbert-Kunz functions of the A1 and A2 singularities.

36 pages; v2: minor changes; v3: addition of Theorem 4.11, which fixes a gap in the previous version; added Theorem 1.23 (Han-Monsky algorithm) for reference; lots of minor changes and added remarks to improve exposition. Comments are very welcome!
