in this article, we study the artin-rees property in  c(x), in the  rings of fractions of  c(x) and in the factor rings of c(x) . we show that c(x)/(f) is an artin-rees ring if and only if  z(f)  is an open p-space. a necessary and sufficient condition for the local rings of  c(x)   to be artin-rees rings is that each prime ideal in  c(x)  becomes minimal and it turns out that every local ring ...

This paper is a short survey on four basic questions on Artin-Tits groups: the torsion, the center, the word problem, and the cohomology (K(π, 1) problem). It is also an opportunity to prove three new results concerning these questions: (1) if all free of infinity Artin-Tits groups are torsion free, then all Artin-Tits groups will be torsion free; (2) If all free of infinity irreducible non-sph...

Artin groups (also known as Artin-Tits groups) are generalizations of Artin’s braid groups. This paper concerns Artin groups of spherical type, that is, those whose corresponding Coxeter group is finite, as is the case for the braid groups. We compute presentations for the commutator subgroups of the irreducible spherical-type Artin groups, generalizing the work of Gorin and Lin [GL69] on the b...

In this paper we study some combinatorial aspects of the singular Artin monoids. Firstly, we show that a singular Artin monoid SA can be presented as a semidirect product of a graph monoid with its associated Artin group A. Such a decomposition implies that a singular Artin monoid embeds in a group. Secondly, we give a solution to the word problem for the FC type singular Artin monoids. Afterwa...

We interpret the Artin–Rees lemma and the Izumi theorem in term of Artin function and we obtain a stable version of the Artin–Rees lemma. We present different applications of these interpretations. First we show that the Artin function of X1X2 −X3X4, as a polynomial in the ring of power series in more than three variables, is not bounded by an affine function. Then we prove that the Artin funct...

Let (W, S) be a Coxeter system, with W a finite, irreducible Coxeter group and let GW be the associated Artin group (see Bourbaki [5] for an introduction to Coxeter groups and their classifications and Brieskorn and Saito [6] for relations between Coxeter groups and Artin groups ). The main objects of study of this paper are the Artin groups of type An . We recall that the Artin group GAn is th...

We show the existence of a first order theory Cmd,e whose Noetherian models are precisely the local Cohen-Macaulay rings of dimension d and multiplicity e. The completion of a model of Cmd,e is again a model and is moreover Noetherian. If R is an equicharacteristic local Gorenstein ring of dimension d and multiplicity e with algebraically closed residue field and if the Artin Approximation Prop...

The Coxeter groups that act geometrically on euclidean space have long been classified and presentations for the irreducible ones are encoded in the well-known extended Dynkin diagrams. The corresponding Artin groups are called euclidean Artin groups and, despite what one might naively expect, most of them have remained fundamentally mysterious for more than forty years. Recently, my coauthors ...
