The F-signature of an affine semigroup ring

The F-signature of an Affine Semigroup Ring

We prove that the F-signature of an affine semigroup ring of positive characteristic is always a rational number, and describe a method for computing this number. We use this method to determine the F-signature of Segre products of polynomial rings, and of Veronese subrings of polynomial rings. Our technique involves expressing the F-signature of an affine semigroup ring as the difference of th...

A Note on C-graded Modules over an Affine Semigroup Ring K[c]

Let C ⊂ Z be an affine semigroup, R = K[C] its semigroup ring, and *modC R the category of finitely generated “C-graded” R-modules (i.e., Z -graded modules M with M = ⊕ c∈C Mc). When R is Cohen-Macaulay and simplicial, we show that information on M ∈ *modC R such as depth, CohenMacaulayness, and (Sn) condition, can be read off from numerical invariants of the minimal irreducible resolution (i.e...

Notes on C-graded Modules over an Affine Semigroup Ring K[c]

Let C ⊂ N be an affine semigroup, and R = K[C] its semigroup ring. This paper is a collection of various results on “C-graded” R-modules M = ⊕ c∈C Mc, especially, monomial ideals of R. For example, we show the following: If R is normal and I ⊂ R is a radicalmonomial ideal (i.e., R/I is a generalization of Stanley-Reisner rings), then the sequentially Cohen-Macaulay property of R/I is a topologi...

Computing the Integral Closure of an Affine Semigroup

new semigroup compactifications via the enveloping semigroups of associated flows

this thesis deals with the construction of some function algebras whose corresponding semigroup compactification are universal with respect to some properies of their enveloping semigroups. the special properties are of beigan a left zero, a left simple, a group, an inflation of the right zero, and an inflation of the rectangular band.
