We explore the classical Lech's inequality relating the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicity and colength of an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$. We prove optimal versions of Lech's inequality for…
Let $(R,m)\to (S,n)$ be a flat local extension of local rings. Lech conjectured in 1960 that there should be a general inequality $e(R)\leq e(S)$ on the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicities. This conjecture is known when the base ring $R$ has…
Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a Noetherian local ring and $I$ a $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal. In this paper, we study an inequality involving the number of generators, the Loewy length and the multiplicity of $I$. There is strong evidence that…
The long standing Lech's conjecture in commutative algebra states that for a flat local extension $(R,\mathfrak{m})\to (S,\mathfrak{n})$ of Noetherian local rings, we have an inequality on the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicities: $e(R)\leq…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring of dimension $d\geq 2$. We prove that if $e(\widehat{R}_{red})>1$, then the classical Lech's inequality can be improved uniformly for all $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals, that is, there exists…
We introduce the notion of strongly Lech-independent ideals as a generalization of Lech-independent ideals defined by Lech and Hanes, and use this notion to derive inequalities on multiplicities of ideals. In particular we prove that if…
For an arbitrary ideal I in a local ring R and a finitely generated R-module M, we prove a formula expressing each generalized multiplicity sequence c_k(I,M) as a linear combination of certain local multiplicities. As a consequence, when M…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring and $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module. We study the relations of the index of reducibility and the irreducible multiplicity of an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$ and these of…
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 generalize an improved Lech bound, due to Huneke, Smirnov, and Validashti, for the Buchsbaum-Rim multiplicity and mixed multiplicity. We reduce the problem to the graded case and then to the polynomial ring case. There we use complete…
Let (R,m) be an n-dimensional regular local ring, essentially of finite type over a field of characteristic zero. In this paper we study the relationship between the singularities of the scheme defined by an m-primary ideal I of R and the…
The Lefschetz question asks if multiplication by a power of a general linear form, $L$, on a graded algebra has maximal rank (in every degree). We consider a quotient by an ideal that is generated by powers of linear forms. Then the…
Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring. This paper concerns several extremal invariants arising from the study of the relation between colength and (Hilbert--Samuel or Hilbert--Kunz) multiplicity of an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary…
We introduce mixed Segre numbers of ideals which generalize the notion of mixed multiplicities of ideals of finite colength and show how many results on mixed multiplicities can be extended to results on mixed Segre numbers. In particular,…
Over a regular local ring of dimension two with maximal ideal m, we study the Buchsbaum-Rim multiplicity of a finitely generated module M of finite colength in a free module F. First, we investigate the colength of an m-primary ideal and…
We introduce the notion of Burch ideals and Burch rings. They are easy to define, and can be viewed as generalization of many well-known concepts, for example integrally closed ideals of finite colength and Cohen--Macaulay rings of minimal…
The Multiplicity Conjecture is a deep problem relating the multiplicity (or degree) of a Cohen-Macaulay standard graded algebra with certain extremal graded Betti numbers in its minimal free resolution. In the case of level algebras of…
In this work, we extend the concept of the Lipschitz saturation of an ideal to the context of modules in some different ways, and we prove they are generically equivalent.
In this paper we produce a real r such that 0<r<0# in L-degree, yet R is NOT generic over L (for a forcing amenable to L). This answers a question of Beller-Jensen-Welch.
Let R be the local ring of a point on a variety X over an algebraically closed field k. We make a connection between the notion of mixed (Samuel) multiplicity of m-primary ideals in R and intersection theory of subspaces of rational…
