When is a blow-up non-singular?

For monomial ideals there is a combinatorial smoothness criterion, see "Blowups in tame monomial ideals" https://arxiv.org/abs/0905.4511

CM for primary ideal

Let $R$ be a regular local ring, $I$ a prime ideal and $J$ an $I$-primary ideal in $R$. Is it true that if $R/I$ is CM then also $R/J$ is CM? This question is in some way the inverse of this one.

Irreducible components of reduced complete intersection

Let $Z$ be an irreducible and reduced scheme. Does there exist a reduced complete intersection $Y$ such that $Z$ is an irreducible component of $Y$?

log-canonical threshold

I don't think that it's true: take $a=(x^2-y^3)$ and $b=(x^2,y^3)$ in $k[x,y]$. Then $a$ is strictly contained in $b$ but $lct(a)=lct(b)=5/6$. This example can be found e.g. in "An informal introduct …

What are non-trivial examples of non-singular blow-ups of a non-singular variety?

For $X=\mathbb{A}^3$ you may take as $Z$ the three coordinate axes defined by $(x,y)(x,z)(y,z)$: The blowup $Bl_Z(X)$ of $X$ in $Z$ is nonsingular. However $Bl_Z(X)$ is isomorphic to a composition of …
