Abstract

In his work of 1969, Merle E. Manis introduced valuations on commutative rings. Recently, the class of totally quasi-ordered rings was developped by the second author. In the present paper, we establish the notion of compatibility between valuations and quasi-orders on rings, leading to a definition of the rank of a quasi-ordered ring. Moreover, we prove a Baer-Krull Theorem for quasi-ordered rings: fixing a Manis valuation v on R, we characterize all v-compatible quasi-orders of R by lifting the quasi-orders from the residue class ring to R itself.

On triviality of $\mathbb{A}^2$-forms admitting a nontrivial $\mathbb{G}_a$-action

T. Kambayashi had shown that $\mathbb{A}^2$-forms over separable field extensions are necessarily polynomial rings. However, there exist inseparable $\mathbb{A}^2$-forms which are not necessarily polynomial rings. In this paper, we give a structure theorem for $\mathbb{A}^2$-forms over arbitrary field extensions admitting a nontrivial $\mathbb{G}_a$-action. From this structure theorem we derive some conditions under which an $\mathbb{A}^2$-form becomes trivial. In particular, we prove that over a field $k$, a factorial $\mathbb{A}^2$-form having a $k$-rational point and a non-trivial $\mathbb{G}_a$-action is trivial and we also give examples demonstrating that none of these hypotheses can be discarded. As a consequence of the structure theorem, we obtain a generalization of the Zariski Cancellation Theorem for the affine plane over an arbitrary field.

Symbolic powers of the ideal of$n$ general points in $P^{n-1}$

Problem L of Fröberg--Lundqvist--Oneto--Shapiro asks for the difference between the Hilbert series of ordinary and symbolic powers of the ideal of general points in projective space. We solve this completely for \(n\) general points of \(\PP^{n-1}\). Besides a closed formula for \[ \HS(S/I^m)-\HS(S/I^{(m)}), \] we determine all minimal monomial generators of \(I^{(m)}\), and describe the symbolic Rees algebra. We also show that containment \(I^{(m)}\subseteq I^r\) is detected solely by initial degrees. This gives the exact containment threshold, the Waldschmidt constant \(\walpha\), the resurgence \(\Res\), and the asymptotic resurgence \(\aRes\): \[ \walpha(I)=\frac{n}{n-1}, \qquad \Res(I)=\aRes(I)=\frac{2(n-1)}{n}. \] We also take the first step beyond \(n\) points: for \(n+1\) general points of \(\PP^{n-1}\) --- again a rigid, non-monomial configuration --- we identify the defining quadrics, resolve the case \(n=3\) completely (a complete intersection, with \(J^{(m)}=J^m\) for all \(m\) and resurgence \(1\)), and propose an exact Waldschmidt-constant formula \(\walpha=\frac{n+1}{n-1}\) for all \(n\), verified computationally in every case we could check.
