Let Q be a semi-regular local ring of dimension d, m be its maximal ideal, and q be an m-primary ideal. Then LQ(Q/qn+1), the length of Q-module Q/qn+1, is equal to the characteristic polynomial PQ(q,n) in n for a sufficiently large value of n:where ei = ei(q), i = 0,1,2,…, d are integers uniquely determined by q, called normalized Hilbert coefficients of q according to (1). It was shown in (1) that e1(q) is a non-negative integer, and is equal to zero if and only if q is generated by a system of parameters. We shall prove, in this paper, that e2(q) is also a non-negative integer, and that this non-negativity is not necessarily true for other coefficients. We shall give an example with negative e3(q).

AbstractLet (A,m) be a Noetherian local ring withd= dimA≥ 2. Then, ifAis a Buchsbaum ring, the first Hilbert coefficientsofAfor parameter idealsQare constant and equal towherehi(A)denotes the length of theith local cohomology moduleofAwith respect to the maximal ideal m. This paper studies the question of whether the converse of the assertion holds true, and proves thatAis a Buchsbaum ring ifAis unmixed and the valuesare constant, which are independent of the choice of parameter idealsQinA. Hence, a conjecture raised by [GhGHOPV] is settled affirmatively.

This paper contains some contributions to the analytic theory of ideals. The central concept is that of a reduction which is defined as follows: if and are ideals and ⊆ , then is called a reduction of if n = n+1 for all large values of n. The usefulness of the concept depends mainly on two facts. First, it defines a relationship between two ideals which is preserved under homomorphisms and ring extensions; secondly, what we may term the reduction process gets rid of superfluous elements of an ideal without disturbing the algebraic multiplicities associated with it. For example, the process when applied to a primary ideal belonging to the maximal ideal of a local ring gives rise to a system of parameters having the same multiplicity; but the methods work almost equally well for an arbitrary ideal and bring to light some interesting facts which are rather obscured in the special case. The concept seems to be suitable for a variety of applications. The present paper contains one instance which is a generalized form of the associative law for multiplicities (see § 8), and the authors hope to give other illustrations in a separate paper.

Let R be a (commutative Noetherian) local ring (with identity) having maximal ideal and dimension d≧l. It is shown in [5,3.6rsqb; that the local cohomology module may be described as a module of generalized fractions: if x1…,xd is a system of parameters for R, then , where U(x)d+1 is the triangular subset [4,2.1] of Rd+1 given by

AbstractLet (A,m) be a Noetherian local ring with d = dim A ≥ 2. Then, if A is a Buchsbaum ring, the first Hilbert coefficients of A for parameter ideals Q are constant and equal to where hi(A) denotes the length of the ith local cohomology module of A with respect to the maximal ideal m. This paper studies the question of whether the converse of the assertion holds true, and proves that A is a Buchsbaum ring if A is unmixed and the values are constant, which are independent of the choice of parameter ideals Q in A. Hence, a conjecture raised by [GhGHOPV] is settled affirmatively.

Let [Formula: see text] be a regular local ring of dimension [Formula: see text]. A local monoidal transform of [Formula: see text] is a ring of the form [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a regular parameter, [Formula: see text] is a regular prime ideal of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is a maximal ideal of [Formula: see text] lying over [Formula: see text] In this paper, we study some features of the rings [Formula: see text] obtained as infinite directed union of iterated local monoidal transforms of [Formula: see text]. In order to study when these rings are GCD domains, we also provide results in the more general setting of directed unions of GCD domains.

Throughout, (R, m) will denote a d-dimensional CohenMacaulay (CM for short) local ring having an infinite residue field and I an m-primary ideal in R. Recall that an ideal J I is said to be a reduction of I if Ir+1 = JIr for some r 0, and a reduction J of I is called a minimal reduction of I if J is generated by a system of parameters. The concepts of reduction and minimal reduction were first introduced by Northcott and Rees12. If J is a reduction of I, define the reduction number of I with respect to J, denoted by rj(I), to be min {r 0 Ir+1 = JIr}. The reduction number of I is defined as r(I) = min {rj(I)J is a minimal reduction of I}. The reduction number r(I) is said to be independent if r(I) = rj(I) for every minimal reduction J of I.

Let [Formula: see text] be a Noetherian local ring with maximal ideal [Formula: see text] and residue field [Formula: see text]. The linearity defect of a finitely generated [Formula: see text]-module [Formula: see text], which is denoted [Formula: see text], is a numerical measure of how far [Formula: see text] is from having linear resolution. We study the linearity defect of the residue field. We give a positive answer to the question raised by Herzog and Iyengar of whether [Formula: see text] implies [Formula: see text], in the case when [Formula: see text].

Let R R be a complete local ring and let Q Q be a prime ideal of R R . It is determined precisely which conditions on R R are equivalent to the existence of a complete unramified regular local ring A A and an element g ∈ A − Q g\in A-Q such that R R is a finite A A -module and A g ⟶ R g A_g\longrightarrow R_g is étale . A number of other properties of the possible embeddings A ⟶ R A\longrightarrow R are developed in the process including the determination of precisely which fields can be coefficient fields in the Cohen-Gabber Theorem.
