Set-theoretic generation by circuit polynomials

Let $P$ be a prime ideal in $S=\mathbb{C}[x_1,\ldots , x_n],$ and write $[n] = \{ 1, \ldots , n \}.$ The algebraic matroid of $P$ can be defined according to circuit axioms as follows: $C\subset [n]$ ...

Maximal ideals of polynomial ring containing a fixed element

We know that for a field $k $ and $f\in k [x]$, the only maximal ideals of $k [x]$ containing $f $ are the ideals generated by prime factors of $f $. Now, I want to know that if $R $ is an arbitrary ...

When an intersection is contained in a minimal prime ideal

For a commutative ring $R$ with identity, it is well known that if a finite intersection of ideals is contained in a prime ideal $\frak{p}$, then one of them is contained in $\frak{p}$. I am looking ...

When a finitely generated ideal is contained in a union of maximal ideals

For a commutative ring $R$ with 1, it is well known that if an ideal is contained in the union of all maximal ideals, then it contained in one of them. I want to know why the following is true or is ...
