<p>Let $f_1,\dots,f_n$ be formal power series in $\mathbb{C}[[x_1,\dots,x_n]]$ whose constant terms are all zero (i.e. $f_1,\dots f_n$ are not units in the ring). Suppose further that the radical of the ideal $(f_1,\dots f_n)$ is the maximal ideal. Does this imply that the Jacobian determinant $$\det \left(\frac{\partial f_i}{\partial x_j}\right)$$ is not identically zero?</p> <p><b>Note</b>, that in the special case when $f_1,\dots f_n$ are polynomials, we get the following statement: If the Jacobian determinant associated to a system of $n$ polynomial equations in $n$ variables with complex coefficients is identically zero, then the system has no isolated solutions.</p>

<p>Let $A$ be a noetherian domain, $\mathfrak{m}$ а maximal ideal, $s$ a non-zero element of $\mathfrak{m}$, $d= \dim A_\mathfrak{m}$. Is the following claim true?</p> <p>Claim: For any $\epsilon>0$, there exists a positive integer $n$ s.t. for any ideal $I$ satisfying</p> <p>1) $ I \subset\mathfrak{m^n}$</p> <p>2) $\sqrt I = \mathfrak{m}$</p> <p>3) $I$ can be generated by $d$ elements,</p> <p>the following holds: $$ \mbox{length}(A/(I+As)) /\mbox{length}(A/I) &lt; \epsilon$$</p> <p>Note: The following example shows that the claim can be false if one drops the requirement that that the number of generators of $I$ be bounded. </p> <p>Example: $A:= k[x,s]$, and let $\mathfrak{m}$ denote the ideal $(x,s)$. Let $I_{n,m}$ be an ideal of $A$ given by $$ I_{n,m}= s\mathfrak{m}^{n-1} + \mathfrak{m}^m$$.</p> <p>We can calculate that for any $n$, $$\lim_{m\to \infty} \mbox{length}(A/(I_{n,m}+As)) /\mbox{length}(A/I_{n,m}) = 1$$ </p>

@kreck: Can you offer any references that would enable me to understand your proof?

Thanks a lot! I accept the answer.

Thank you for your comment! Maybe &quot; $I$ is parameter ideal&quot; can be replaced by &quot;number of generators of $I$ is bounded&quot;. I added an example that shows that some restriction on $I$ is necessary.

Now we know how to solve that combinatorics problem ! :)

Hi Martin, This is probably a stupid question, but looking at Lang didn't yield an answer. How do we know that there is no other purely transcendental, non-isomorphic to $\mathbb{Q}(x)$, extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ that also embeds inside every other transcendental extension of $\mathbb{Q}$?

Hi Martin, Can you please explain more why $|R| \cong |F(R)|$ is a ring homomorphism? Also does it depend on the choice of an isomoprhism $\mathbb{Z}[x]\to F(\mathbb{Z}[x])$?
