Normal ideals of graded rings

Normal Ideals of Graded Rings

For a graded domain R = k[X0, ...,Xm]/J over an arbitrary domain k, it is shown that the ideal generated by elements of degree ≥ mA, where A is the least common multiple of the weights of the Xi, is a normal ideal.

Graded Rings Associated with Contracted Ideals

The study of the ideals in a regular local ring (R,m) of dimension 2 has a long and important tradition dating back to the fundamental work of Zariski [ZS]. More recent contributions are due to several authors including Cutkosky, Huneke, Lipman, Sally and Tessier among others, see [C1, C2, H, HS, L, LT]. One of the main result in this setting is the unique factorization theorem for complete (i....

Normal Ideals in Regular Rings

Depth of Associated Graded Rings via Hilbert Coefficients of Ideals

Given a local Cohen-Macaulay ring (R,m), we study the interplay between the integral closedness – or even the normality – of an m-primary R-ideal I and conditions on the Hilbert coefficients of I . We relate these properties to the depth of the associated graded ring of I .
