Some remarks on the comparability of ideals in semirings

Abstract

A semiring is uniserial if its ideals are totally ordered by inclusion. First, we show that a semiring $S$ is uniserial if and only if the matrix semiring $M_n(S)$ is uniserial. As a generalization of valuation semirings, we also investigate those semirings whose prime ideals are linearly ordered by inclusion. For example, we prove that the prime ideals of a commutative semiring $S$ are linearly ordered if and only if for each $x,y \in S$, there is a positive integer $n$ such that either $x|y^n$ or $y|x^n$. Then, we introduce and characterize pseudo-valuation semidomains. It is shown that prime ideals of pseudo-valuation semidomains and also of the divided ones are linearly ordered.

An unrestricted notion of the finite factorization property

A nonzero element of an integral domain (or an element of a commutative cancellative monoid) is called atomic if it is a unit or can be written as a finite product of irreducible elements (also called atoms). In this paper, we introduce and investigate an unrestricted version of the finite factorization property, extending the work on unrestricted UFDs carried out by Coykendall and Zafrullah in 2004. An integral domain is said to have the unrestricted finite factorization (U-FF) property if every atomic element has only finitely many factorizations, or equivalently, if its atomic submonoid has the finite factorization (FF) property. We position the U-FF property within the hierarchy of classical finiteness conditions, showing that every IDF domain is a U-FFD but not conversely. Then we analyze the behavior of the U-FF property under standard constructions, including localization, polynomial extensions, and the $D+M$ construction: in each case, we find sufficient conditions under which the U-FF property is inherited by the construction. We also prove that, as it is the case with the IDF property, the U-FF property does not ascend to polynomial extensions. Then we extend the known characterization of FFDs as atomic IDF domains by arguing that the FF property and the U-FF property are equivalent over the class of nearly atomic domains (i.e., integral domains having a nonzero principal ideal whose nonzero elements are atomic). These results demonstrate that the U-FF property behaves in many ways analogously to the IDF property. We conclude taking a look at the class of all unrestricted UFDs.

Nearly Gorenstein normal graded rings

We investigate nearly Gorenstein property for a normal graded ring $R = \bigoplus_{n\ge 0}R_n$ finitely generated over a field. For that purpose, we investigate ${K_R}^{-1}$, the inverse of $K_R$ (the canonical module of $R$) and introduce a new invariant $b(R)$ of $R$. We investigate nearly Gorenstein property of $R$ using $a(R)$ and $b(R)$ and $m(R)$, the initial degree of $R$. If $b(R)<0$, (and if $R$ is $\mathbb Q$-Gorenstein), then we believe that $R$ is log-terminal -- this is proved if $\dim R=2$ or $R$ is F-pure (or $F$-pure type). Then we determine the condition for a $2$-dimensional cone singularity over a smooth curve of genus $g\le 3$ to be nearly Gorenstein. We observe that ``almost Gorenstein" property and nearly Gorenstein property are drastically different for such rings.

Annhilators of local cohomology modules over modular invariant rings and Dickson polynomials

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be a finite field with $q = p^s$ elements. Let $V$ be a $d$ dimensional vector space over $\mathbb{F}_q$ and let $G$ be a subgroup of $GL(V)$. Let $R = \mathbb{F}_q[V] = \text{Sym}_{\mathbb{F}_q}(V^*)$ and let $G$ act naturally on $R$. Set $S = R^G$. Let $\mathbf{d}_{d,0}, \mathbf{d}_{d, 1}, \ldots, \mathbf{d}_{d, d-1} \in S$ be the Dickson polynomials with $°\mathbf{d}_{d,i} = q^d - q^i$. Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal of $S$ and let $H^i_I(S)$ be the $i^{th}$-local cohomology module of $S$ with respect to $I$. Let $J_i = \sqrt{\text{ann} H^i_I(S)}$. Assume $J_i \neq 0$ and $\dim S/J_i = d - g$. Then we show that $\mathbf{d}_{d,0}, \ldots, \mathbf{d}_{d, d - g + 1} \in J_i$. We give several applications of our results. An application is a considerably simpler proof of Landweber-Stong conjecture.
