Abstract

We introduce in this work, the class of commutative rings whose lattice of ideals forms an MTL-algebra which is not necessary a BL-algebra. The so-called class of rings will be named MTL-rings. We prove that a local commutative ring with identity is an MTL-ring if and only if it is an arithmetical ring. It is shown that a noetherian commutative ring R with an identity is an MTL-ring if and only if ideals of the localization RM at a maximal ideal M are totally ordered by the set inclusion. Remarking that noetherian MTL-rings are again BL-rings, we work outside of the noetherian case by considering non-noetherian valuation domains and non-noetherian Prüfer domains. We established that non-noetherian valuation rings are the main examples of MTL-rings which are not BL-rings. This leads us to some constructions of MTL-rings from Prüfer domains: the case of holomorphic functions ring through their algebraic properties and the case of semilocal Prüfer domains through the theorem of independency of valuations. We end up giving a representation of MTL-rings in terms of subdirectly irreducible product.

The Bourbaki Degree of Line Arrangements

We study the Bourbaki degree of line arrangements in the projective plane and its interaction with the intersection lattice and the syzygies of the gradient ideal. We show that the Bourbaki degree is obtained by evaluating the reduced characteristic polynomial at the initial degree of the first syzygy module. This leads to a sharp upper bound and to refinements involving the two largest intersection multiplicities, with consequences for the global Tjurina number, the freeness defect, and Terao's conjecture, including an improvement of Dimca's numerical criterion when the smaller exponent is at least five. We also establish addition--deletion formulas and show that the defect from the sharp bound is monotone under line addition. Finally, we prove that the Bourbaki degree is determined by the intersection lattice for arrangements with at most eight lines, while examples with isomorphic intersection lattices and different Bourbaki degrees exist for every number of lines at least nine.

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.
