On Primary Ideals. Part I

I-prime ideals

In this paper, we introduce a new generalization of weakly prime ideals called $I$-prime. Suppose $R$ is a commutative ring with identity and $I$ a fixed ideal of $R$. A proper ideal $P$ of $R$ is $I$-prime if for $a, b in R$ with $ab in P-IP$ implies either $a in P$ or $b in P$. We give some characterizations of $I$-prime ideals and study some of its properties.  Moreover, we give conditions  ...

Primary Ideals and Valuation Ideals

ON FIBER CONES OF m-PRIMARY IDEALS

Two formulas for the multiplicity of the fiber cone F (I) = ⊕∞n=0I /mI of an m-primary ideal of a d-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R,m) are derived in terms of the mixed multiplicity ed−1(m|I), the multiplicity e(I) and superficial elements. As a consequence, the Cohen-Macaulay property of F (I) when I has minimal mixed multiplicity or almost minimal mixed multiplicity is characterized ...

On Primary Ideals in C(x)

2. Primary ideals in C(X). C(X) denotes the ring of real-valued continuous functions on the topological space X, under ordinary pointwise addition and multiplication. By a primary ideal we mean an ideal which is contained in at most one maximal ideal. An O-ideal is an ideal / such that for each pair/i,/2G/ there exists eEI, depending on/i and f2, such that/<«=/.-, for i = l, 2 [7; 4]. A prime-l...

On Ideals Related to I[λ]

We describe a recipe for generating normal ideals on successors of singular cardinals. We show that these ideals are related to many weakenings of that have appeared in the literature. Our main purpose, however, is to provide an organized list of open questions related to these ideals. Throughout this note, we will let λ denote the successor of a singular cardinal μ. We will also let χ denote s...
