It is an open question whether tight closure commutes with localization in quotients of a polynomial ring in finitely many variables over a field. Katzman showed that tight closure of ideals in these rings commutes with localization at one element if for all ideals I and J in a polynomial ring there is a linear upper bound in q on the degree in the least variable of reduced Groebner bases in reverse lexicographic ordering of the ideals of the form J + I^{[q]}. Katzman conjectured that this property would always be satisfied. In this paper we prove several cases of Katzman's conjecture. We also provide an experimental analysis (with proofs) of asymptotic properties of Groebner bases connected with Katzman's conjectures.
Generalized Frobenius powers of an ideal were introduced in work of Hernández, Teixeira, and Witt as characteristic-dependent analogs of test ideals. However, little is known about the Frobenius powers and critical exponents of specific ideals, even in the monomial case. We describe an algorithm to compute the critical exponents of monomial ideals and use this algorithm to prove some results about their Frobenius powers and critical exponents. Rather than using test ideals, our algorithm uses techniques from linear optimization.
This paper proves some special cases in which localization of tight closure holds. In particular it studies the condition LC relating to bounding the Loewy lengths of local cohomology of Frobenius iterates of quotient rings.
In this note we observe that the Frobenius number and therefore the conductor of a numerical semigroup can be obtained from the maximal socle degree of the quotient of the corresponding semigroup algebra by the ideal generated by the biggest generator of the semigroup.
The main goal of this paper is to prove, in positive characteristic $p$, stability behavior for the graded Betti numbers in the periodic tails of the minimal resolutions of Frobenius powers of the homogeneous maximal ideals for very general choices of hypersurface in three variables whose degree has the opposite parity to that of $p$. We also find some of the structure of the matrix factorization giving the resolution. We achieve this by developing a method for obtaining the degrees of the generators of the defining ideal of an $\mathfrak{c}$-compressed Gorenstein Artinian graded algebra from …
We provide suitable conditions under which the asymptotic limit of the Hilbert-Samuel coefficients of the Frobenius powers of an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal exists in a Noetherian local ring $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ with prime characteristic $p>0.$ This, in turn, gives an expression of the Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity of powers of the ideal. We also prove that for a face ring $R$ of a simplicial complex and an ideal $J$ generated by pure powers of the variables, the generalized Hilbert-Kunz function $\ell(R/(J^{[q]})^k)$ is a polynomial for all $q,k$ and also give an expression of the generalized Hilb…
This article extends the notion of a Frobenius power of an ideal in prime characteristic to allow arbitrary nonnegative real exponents. These generalized Frobenius powers are closely related to test ideals in prime characteristic, and multiplier ideals over fields of characteristic zero. For instance, like these well-known families of ideals, Frobenius powers also give rise to jumping exponents that we call critical Frobenius exponents. In fact, the Frobenius powers of a principal ideal coincides with its test ideals, but appear to be a more refined measure of singularities in general. Herein,…
Let $R=\mathbb{K}[X_1, \ldots , X_n ]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. We introduce an endomorphism $\mathcal{F}^{[m]}: R \rightarrow R $ and denote the image of an ideal $I$ of $R$ via this endomorphism as $I^{[m]}$ and call it to be the $m$ \textit{-th square power} of $I$. In this article, we study some homological invariants of $I^{[m]}$ such as regularity, projective dimension, associated primes and depth for some families of ideals e.g. monomial ideals.
In this paper, we characterize the (generalized) Frobenius powers and critical exponents of two classes of monomial ideals of a polynomial ring in positive characteristic: powers of the homogeneous maximal ideal, and ideals generated by positive powers of the variables. In doing so, we effectively characterize the test ideals and $F$-jumping exponents of sufficiently general homogeneous polynomials, and of all diagonal polynomials. Our characterizations make these invariants computable, and show that they vary uniformly with the congruence class of the characteristic modulo a fixed integer. Mo…
Conjectures are given for Hilbert series related to polynomial invariants of finite general linear groups, one for invariants mod Frobenius powers of the irrelevant ideal, one for cofixed spaces of polynomials.
Lewis, Reiner, and Stanton conjectured a Hilbert seriesfor a space of invariants under an action of finite general linear groups using $(q,t)$-binomial coefficients. This work gives an analog in positive characteristic of theorems relating various Catalan numbers to the representation theory of rational Cherednik algebras. They consider a finite general linear group as a reflection group acting on the quotient of a polynomial ring by iterated powers of the irrelevant ideal under the Frobenius map. We prove a variant of their conjecture in the local case, when the group acting fixes a reflectin…
Let $(R, m)$ be a local ring of prime characteristic $p$ and $q$ a varying power of $p$. We study the asymptotic behavior of the socle of $R/I^{[q]}$ where $I$ is an $m$ -primary ideal of $R$. In the graded case, we define the notion of diagonal $F$-threshold of $R$ as the limit of the top socle degree of $R/m^{[q]}$ over $q$ when $q \to \infty$. Diagonal $F$-threshold exists as a positive number (rational number in the latter case) when: (1) $R$ is either a complete intersection or $R$ is $F$-pure on the punctured spectrum; (2) $R$ is a two dimensional normal domain. In the latter case, we al…
Let $(R,\frak m)$ be an excellent generalized Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$ that is $F$-injective on the punctured spectrum. Let $\frak q$ be a standard parameter ideal of $R$. The aim of the paper is to prove that $$\ell_R({\frak q}^F/{\frak q})\leq \sum\limits_{i=0}^{d}\binom{d}{i}\ell_R(0^F_{H^i_{\frak m}(R)}).$$ Moreover, if $\frak q$ is contained in a large enough power of $\frak m$, we have $${\frak q}^F/{\frak q} \cong \bigoplus_{i=0}^d (0^F_{H^i_{\frak m}(R)})^{\binom{d}{i}}.$$
Let ${\cal R}_{\mathbb{K}}[H]$ be the Hibi ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$ on a finite distributive lattice $H$, $P$ the set of join-irreducible elements of $H$ and $ω$ the canonical ideal of ${\cal R}_{\mathbb{K}}[H]$. We show the powers $ω^{(n)}$ of $ω$ in the group of divisors $\mathrm{Div}({\cal R}_{\mathbb{K}}[H])$ is identical with the ordinal powers of $ω$, describe the $\mathbb{K}$-vector space basis of $ω^{(n)}$ for $n\in\mathbb{Z}$. Further, we show that the fiber cones $\bigoplus_{n\geq 0}ω^n/\mathfrak{m}ω^n$ and $\bigoplus_{n\geq0}(ω^{(-1)})^n/\mathfrak{m}(ω^{(-1)})^n$ of $ω$ and $ω…
It is known that the Frobenius algebra of the injective hull of the residue field of a complete Stanley--Reisner ring (i.e. a formal power series ring modulo a squarefree monomial ideal) can be only principally generated or infinitely generated as algebra over its degree zero piece, and that this fact can be read off in the corresponding simplicial complex; in the infinite case, we exhibit a 1--1 correspondence between potential new generators appearing on each graded piece and certain pairs of faces of such a simplicial complex, and we use it to provide an alternative proof of the fact that t…
Among reduced Noetherian prime characteristic commutative rings, we prove that a regular ring is precisely one where finite intersection of ideals commutes with taking bracket powers. However, reducedness is essential for this equivalence. Connections are made with Ohm-Rush content theory, intersection-flatness of the Frobenius map, and various flatness criteria.
