comment Canonical Modules
That is a hypersurface ring, so Gorenstein, so the canonical module is the ring itself.

comment ideals of a noetherian ring $R$ Cohen-Macaulay as $R-$modules
The length of a maximal $R$-sequence in $P$ is usually denoted $\mathrm{depth}_P(R)$, while $\mathrm{depth}_R(P)$ would mean the length of a maximal $P$-sequence in $R$. Also, it's not true in general that $\mathrm{depth}_R(M) = \mathrm{depth}_R(\mathrm{Ann}_R(M))$; for example, if $R$ is a domain then $\mathrm{depth}_R(R) \geq 1$, while $\mathrm{depth}_R(\mathrm{Ann}_R(R))=0$.

comment ideals of a noetherian ring $R$ Cohen-Macaulay as $R-$modules
I think it's a cut-n-paste error, perhaps supposed to be $\mathrm{depth}_R(P) = \mathrm{dim}(R)$. In that case, $P$ must have height (at most) $1$ and $R/P$ must be a CM ring.

comment An example of a ring $R$ with the property that for each $P=Ann_R(r)\in {\rm Min}(R)$ we have $Ann_R(P)=Rr$.
More generally, any reduced Gorenstein local ring of dimension one will satisfy this double-annihilator property.

You can localize at the ideal $(x,y)$ to get a local example.

comment When does “second annihilator” of a (principal) ideal equal the ideal itself , ie $Ann_R(Ann_R(r))=Rr$?
$R=\Bbb {Z}/n\Bbb {Z}$ is itself an artinian Gorenstein ring.

comment Central Element in Sklyanin Algebras?
If translation by the point $\tau$ of the elliptic curve $E$ has infinite order, then the center of $A$ is $k[g]$. That's the only intrinsic description of $g$ I know. There might be more known about the two central elements in the Sklyanin algebra of GKdim 4. Paul Smith has some notes that might be useful there: math.washington.edu/~smith/Research/…

comment $k[[x]]$ as a $(k[[x]])^p$ module for ugly fields
Oops, it's not. I should have said 'flat', which Karl already noted in the question.

comment $k[[x]]$ as a $(k[[x]])^p$ module for ugly fields
I guess it's a direct limit of free modules, so at least projective.

comment How to check if a commutative ring is Gorenstein.
Dear Sándor, of course I was not offended. You're right -- our answers complement each other. In fact, a full list of all the ways to answer this question might involve a pretty broad cross-section of commutative algebra and algebraic geometry.

comment How to check if a commutative ring is Gorenstein.
I also wish Sándor [and all people 'like' and 'unlike' him] nothing but long life and happiness, but I do want to say that while my first answer is admittedly pretty black-boxy, the second one and Youngsu's comment following are both easy and instructive to do by hand, and that it's only by doing many such examples that we can get the kind of algebraic intuition that serves us [i.e. me] when we [i.e. I] meet examples that are not so susceptible to geometry.

comment Jacobian ideals reference
A student of Huneke's named Hsin-Ju Wang wrote some papers about the Jacobian, and always cited Lipman-Sathaye for the definition and basic properties. Here's one of Wang's papers: tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/00927879808826222
