We give a new proof of a polynomial identity involving the minors of a matrix, that originated in the study of integer torsion in a local cohomology module.

The main aim of this paper is to provide a description of parameter test ideals of local Cohen-Macaulay rings of prime characteristic p. The nature of this description will be such that it will allow us to give an algorithm for producing these ideals. The results in this paper will follow from an analysis of Frobenous maps on injective hulls of the residue fields of the rings under consideratio...

A general structure theorem on higher order invariants is proven. For an arithmetic group, the structure of the corresponding Hecke module is determined. It is shown that the module does not contain any irreducible submodule. This explains the fact that L-functions of higher order forms have no Euler-product. Higher order cohomology is introduced, classical results of Borel are generalized and ...

Let $(R,fm)$ be a Gorenstein local ring and$M,N$ be two finitely generated modules over $R$. Nagel proved that if $M$ and $N$ are inthe same even liaison class, thenone has $H^i_{fm}(M)cong H^i_{fm}(N)$ for all $iIn this paper, we provide a short proof to this result.
