The Chern Coefficients of Local Rings

چکیده

The Chern numbers of the title are the first coefficients (after the multiplicities) of the Hilbert functions of various filtrations of ideals of a local ring (R, m). For a Noetherian (good) filtration A of m-primary ideals, the positivity and bounds for e1(A) are well-studied if R is Cohen-Macaulay, or more broadly, if R is a Buchsbaum ring or mild generalizations thereof. For arbitrary geometric local domains, we introduce techniques based on the theory of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules and of extended multiplicity functions to establish the meaning of the positivity of e1(A), and to derive lower and upper bounds for e1(A).

The Signature of the Chern Coefficients of Local Rings

This paper considers the following conjecture: If R is an unmixed, equidimensional local ring that is a homomorphic image of a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, then for any ideal J generated by a system of parameters, the Chern coefficient e1(J) < 0 is equivalent to R being non Cohen-Macaulay. The conjecture is established if R is a homomorphic image of a Gorenstein ring, and for all universally cate...

On the Chern Number of an Ideal

We settle the negativity conjecture of Vasconcelos for the Chern number of an ideal in certain unmixed quotients of regular local rings by explicit calculation of the Hilbert polynomials of all ideals generated by systems of parameters. Introduction Let I be an m-primary ideal in a local ring (R,m) of dimension d. Let H(I, n) = λ(R/I) denote the Hilbert function of I where λ(M) denotes the leng...

Some classes of strongly clean rings

A ring $R$ is a strongly clean ring if every element in $R$ is the sum of an idempotent and a unit that commutate. We construct some classes of strongly clean rings which have stable range one. It is shown that such cleanness of $2 imes 2$ matrices over commutative local rings is completely determined in terms of solvability of quadratic equations.

Results on Hilbert coefficients of a Cohen-Macaulay module

Let $(R,m)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$, and let $I$ be an ideal of definition for $M$. In this paper, we extend cite[Corollary 10(4)]{P} and also we show that if $M$ is a Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module and $d=2$, then $lambda(frac{widetilde{I^nM}}{Jwidetilde{I^{n-1}M}})$ does not depend on $J$ for all $ngeq 1$, where $J$ is a minimal ...
