Given a singular curve on a smooth surface, we determine which exceptional divisors on the minimal resolution of that curve contribute toward its jumping numbers.
In [K. Kato, Toric singularities, Amer. J. Math. 116 (5) (1994) 1073-1099], Kato defined his notion of a log regular scheme and studied the local behavior of such schemes. A toric variety equipped with its canonical logarithmic structure is log regular. And, these schemes allow one to generalize toric geometry to a theory that does not require a base field. This paper will extend this theory by removing normality requirements.
Conventions and notationAll monoids considered in this paper are commutative and cancellative. All rings considered in this paper are commutative and unital. See Kato [2] for an introduction to log schemes. There Kato defines pre-log structures and log structures on the étale site of X. However, we will use the Zariski topology throughout this paper. P * the unit group of the monoid P . P the sharp image of the monoid P , P = P /P * is the orbit space under the natural action of P * on P . P + P + = P \ P * is the maximal ideal of the monoid P .P gp the group generated by P , that is, image of P under the left adjoint of the inclusion functor from Abelian groups to monoids. P sat the saturation of P , that is, {p ∈ P gp | np ∈ P for some n ∈ N + }. R[P ] the monoid algebra of P over a ring R. The elements of R[P ] are written as "polynomials". That is, they are finite sums r p t p with coefficients in R and exponents in P .
(K)the ideal β(K)A, where β : P → A is a monoid homomorphism with respect to multiplication on A and K is an ideal of P . We say such an ideal is a log ideal of A. R [[P ]] the (P + )-adic completion of R[P ]. P p the localization of the monoid P at the prime ideal p ⊆ P . dim P the (Krull) dimension of the monoid P .
Abstract. Thompson (2014) exhibits a formula for the multiplier ideal with multiplier λ of a monomial curve C with ideal I as an intersection of a term coming from the I-adic valuation, the multiplier ideal of the term ideal of I, and terms coming from certain specified auxiliary valuations. This short note shows it suffices to consider at most two auxiliary valuations. This improvement is achieved through a more intrinsic approach, reduction to the toric case.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
