uniqueness of uniformizers

Let R be a noetherian normal domain (if it makes any difference, I'm happy to assume R is also local). If $p$ is a height one prime, then the localization $R_p$ is a dvr, hence the maximal ideal $...

Is it true that the functor of completion of a module over a local ring is injective on isomorphism classes?

Let $A$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring and $\hat A$ be its completion. Then we have the functor of completion from the category of finitely generated $A$-modules to the category of finitely ...

Analytic spread of localization of an ideal

Let $J$ be an ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(R,m)$. It is well known that for any prime ideal $p\in Spec(R)$, $l(J_p)\leq l(J)$, where $l(J)$ is the analytic spread of $J$. Q) Are there ...

Analytic spread of an ideal

How to calculate analytic spread of the ideal $I=\left<xyw^2,xyz^2,xw^2+yz^2\right>$ in $\mathbb Q[x,y,z,w]?$ I think it is 3.

Behaviour of length function under faithfully flat extension

Let $(R,m)$ and $(S,n)$ be local Noetherian rings such that $S$ is a faithfully flat extension of $R$. Let $J\subsetneq I $ ideals of $R$. Can we relate $l_R(I/J)$ and $l_S(IS/JS)$? PS: Here $l(-)$ ...

Meaning of the statement "$a\in I$ is a general element of $I$"

Suppose $I$ is an ideal in a Noetherian local ring $(R,m)$. In some papers I have seen the following statement: "$a\in I$ is a general element of $I$". What is the definition of general element ...

Modern dictionary for "old" homological terms

I'm trying to build a little dictionary between old Homological algebra for local rings and the slightly more modern approach via derived functors. Let $X = SpecA$ be a spectrum of a local ring $(A,...

automorphisms of local rings vs local change of coordinates

Let $R$ be a local (commutative, associative) ring over a field of zero characteristic. (My typical examples are $k[[x_1,..,x_p]]/I$, $k\{x_1,.,x_p\}/I$, $C^\infty(\Bbb{R}^p,0)$. If it helps one can ...

Intersections of Noetherian regular local rings of finite Krull dimensions

Let us consider Noetherian regular local rings $R_i$ of finite Krull-dimensions for each $i \geq 1$ such that \begin{equation*} R_1 \supset R_2 \supset \cdots \end{equation*} Suppose each embedding $\...

Analytic spread of an ideal after reduction

Let $(R,m)$ be a local ring and $I$ an ideal in $R.$ Let $l(I):=\dim \bigoplus_{n\geq 0}(I^n/mI^n)$ and $x\in R\setminus I.$ My question is what is the relation between $l(I)$ anf $l(I+(x)/(x))?$

Integral closure of lexsegment ideal

Let $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ where $k$ is a field and $I$ be a lexsegment ideal of $R$ and $l(I)=d$ (where $l(I)$ is analytic spread of $I$). Is $I$ integrally closed? If I is generated by elements ...

Reference on the classification of (low rank) Gorenstein rings over $\mathbb{C}$

I am interested in the question of the classification of (low rank) Gorenstein rings over $\mathbb{C}$. The socle of a local algebra is the annihilator of its maximal ideal. A commutative local ring ...

Does the normalization morphism induce isomorphism on residue fields?

The question is basically coming from the following situation: Let $C$ be an integral curve over a field $k$ (EDIT and assume that $k$ is not algebraically closed) and let $\phi\colon C^N\to C$ be the ...

PAC field : Algebraically closed field :: ? : Henselian local ring

covers of complete regular local rings

It is well-known that if one assumes algebraic closedness and characteristic 0 of the residue field then finite covers of complete DVRs are all of the form $A[x]/(x^m-a)$ for some $a \in A$ (direct ...
