Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring. A linear system \(S\) in \(A\) is the projectivization of a vector space \(V(S)\subset A\) free of common factors. \(S\) has a base point if \(S\subset{\mathfrak m}\). The process of resolution of the (base point of the) linear system by quadratic transformations is studied. Especially there is a description of the behaviour at the first infinitesimal neighborhood in terms of the Plücker formulas. An effective characterization of the Zariski open set of equisingular elements in the linear system, i.e. elements \(f\in {\mathfrak m}\) with the same weighted desingularization tree, is given. resolution of linear system; quadratic transformations; Plücker formulas; equisingular elements Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Divisors, linear systems, invertible sheaves, Regular local rings, Equisingularity (topological and analytic) Plücker formula and the equisingularity set of a linear system At first, we study the resolution procedure by blowing-up an \(n\)- dimensional linear system of two variable power series. The main application of this study is an algebraic characterization of the linear system geometry by means of Zariski's complete ideal theory.
In the second part, we study more specifically the desingularization of the one-dimensional linear systems (pencils). We explain the parallelism between the geometry of a pencil and the associated meromorphic foliation. Finally, we characterize the set of pencils associated to a given foliation with a non-constant first integral. We work on the formal power series ring over the complex field but all the results are true on a two-dimensional, local, regular, integrally closed ring over an algebraically closed field. blowing-up an \(n\)-dimensional linear system; resolution; meromorphic foliation; formal power series ring Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Dynamics induced by group actions other than \(\mathbb{Z}\) and \(\mathbb{R}\), and \(\mathbb{C}\), Formal power series rings, Divisors, linear systems, invertible sheaves Linear systems of power series, pencils and associated foliations | 0 |

Following the same plan of exposition of the material as in an earlier joint article with \textit{A. Bravo} and \textit{S. Encinas} [Rev. Mat. Iberoam. 21, No. 2, 349--458 (2005; Zbl 1086.14012)] (but this time in the style of a sequence of lectures and extended in content), the author thoroughly treats constructive desingularization in characteristic zero starting from the statement of the main results and the underlying basic definitions and techniques. He then proceeds to the description of the complete resolution process based on the notion of resolution invariants resp. a resolution function, whose structure reflects the inductive nature of desingularization (by descent in dimension of the ambient space) and is explained on the basis of its building blocks, suitable upper semicontinuous functions.
While the focus of the already described part is on the local construction of the resolution process and invariants, the last part concentrates on globalizing those local results. Key notions in this context are Rees algebras and differential algebras, which are introduced and subsequently used to reformulate the objects of study of the previous part in the global context. In addition to a proof following the approach outlined in Kollàr's lecture notes on resolution of singularities, the author also presents -- for the so-called `simple case' -- a different approach, which is not restricted to the case of characteristic zero and might contribute to the still unsolved problem of desingularization in positive characteristic. resolution of singularities; desingularization; resolution function; resolution invariant; Rees Algebra; differential algebra; constructive resolution Villamayor, O., An introduction to constructive desingularization (Notes) Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Associated graded rings of ideals (Rees ring, form ring), analytic spread and related topics Notes on constructive desingularization | 0 |

M. Katz} [Rigid local systems. Princeton, NJ: Princeton Univ. Press (1996; Zbl 0864.14013)] proved that if \(L\) is irreducible, then being physically rigid is equivalent to the vanishing of the intersection (= parabolic) cohomology \(H^1_p(\mathrm{End}(L)):=H^{1}(\mathbb{P}^{1,\mathrm{an}}_{\mathbb{C}}, j_{\ast}\mathrm{End}(L))\), where \(j\colon U \to \mathbb{P}^{1}_{\mathbb{C}}\) is the open immersion. In a precise sense, the intersection cohomology space can be regarded as the tangent space to \(L\) in a suitable moduli stack.
The analogue of a local system in rigid cohomology is an overconvergent isocrystal. It is also reasonable to regard the restriction of the isocrystal to the Robba rings of the punctures as a replacement of data of local monodromy. Thus one can define the notion of a physically rigid isocrystal. For an absolutely irreducible overconvergent F-isocrystal, \textit{R. Crew} [Doc. Math. 22, 287--296 (2017; Zbl 1391.14038)] showed that ``vanishing parabolic cohomology'' \(\Longrightarrow\) ``physically rigid'', i.e., the analogue of Katz's theorem holds.
In the article under review, the author studies the local deformation theory of isocrystals. The author proves that the rigid cohomology groups \(H^1(\mathrm{End}(L))\), \(H^1_c(\mathrm{End}(L))\), \(H^1_{p}(\mathrm{End}(L))\) are Zariski tangent spaces of some functors of artin rings, and these deformation functors have hulls if, for example, \(\mathrm{End}(L)\) admits a Frobenius structure. If moreover \(L\) is absolutely irreducible, some smoothness and pro-representability results about these functors are proved. \(p\)-adic cohomology; isocrystals; arithmetic \(D\)-modules; deformation theory; Hochschild cochain complex \(p\)-adic cohomology, crystalline cohomology, Differentials and other special sheaves; D-modules; Bernstein-Sato ideals and polynomials, \(p\)-adic differential equations, Local ground fields in algebraic geometry, Rigid analytic geometry Deformations of overconvergent isocrystals on the projective line | 0 |

Suppose that S dominates R and if \(d>2\) then R is assumed excellent. Then for every strictly decreasing chain \(R\subset S_ m\subset...\subset S_ 1\subset S\) such that
(1) all \(S_ i\) are regular local rings of dimension d,
(2) \(S_{i+1}\) dominates \(S_ i\) for all i, \(0\leq i\leq m\), where \(S_{m+1}:=R\) and \(S_ 0:=S,\)
the integer m is bounded by a positive integer N depending just on R, S. This bound is explicitly computed for some extensions and nice examples are given.
The above result extends the author's previous one [see \(corollary\quad (4,10)\) from Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 299, 513-524 (1987; Zbl 0659.13006)] which says that any factorization of a local birational morphism \(f:\quad Spec(S)\to Spec(R)\) of nonsingular (affine) schemes of arbitrary dimension via other nonsingular schemes must be finite in length (in the surface case the classical local factorization theorem of Zariski and Abhyankar says that such factorization is unique). monoidal transformation; excellent ring; regular local rings; factorization of a local birational morphism Johnston, B.: The uniform bound problem for local birational nonsingular morphisms.

Although constructive proofs of resolution of singularities in characteristic zero have been known and refined for some time now, there are major obstructions to generalizing them to the open case of positive characteristic, e.g. the key inductive argument on the descent in ambient dimension involves `hypersurfaces of maximal contact' which do not exist in positive characteristic. The approach explained in this article replaces the restriction to such hypersurfaces by local projections which exist in any characteristic and which also allow related resolution invariants with significantly easier globalization. It is shown that in characteristic zero this construction provides the same information as the traditional one. A drawback and still open problem of this approach is that it only simplifies the singularities to a monomial case; this in turn is not as straightforward as in Hironakas classical approach and its resolution is not shown in all generality, but only under some additional conditions. As a sample application the case of 2-dimensional embedded schemes is treated. constructive resolution of singularities; desingularization; choice of center; projections ,\textit{Techniques for the study of singularities with applications to resolution of 2-dimensional} \textit{schemes}, Math.

Let \(\mathcal L\) be a rank-one complex local system over \(M\). The local system \(\mathcal L\) is determined by its monodromy \(H^1(M) \to {\mathbb C}^*\), hence by a point \(t=(t_1,\ldots, t_n)\in ({\mathbb C}^*)^n.\)
This paper concerns the effect of isotopies of the arrangement \({\mathcal A}\) on the local system cohomology \(H^*(M,{\mathcal L}_t),\) in particular its dependence on \(t\).
Let \( B\) be a smooth component of the realization space of a simple matroid \(G\) on \(n\) points. Points \(b \in B\) give rise to arrangements of \(n\) labelled hyperplanes with the same underlying matroid \(G\), and with diffeomorphic complements. Fix \(t\in ({\mathbb C}^*)^n\) and let \((\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_n)\in {\mathbb C}^n\) with \(t_j=\text{exp}(-2\pi i \lambda_j)\). One obtains for each \(q\) a bundle of vector spaces over \( B\), whose fiber over \({\mathcal A}_b\) is the local system cohomology \(H^q(M({\mathcal A}_b),{\mathcal L}_t)\). The authors compute the monodromy of this bundle, and its infinitesimal generator, the Gauss-Manin connection. The main result is that the eigenvalues of the Gauss-Manin connection are integral linear combinations of the weights \(\lambda_j,\) confirming a conjecture of H.~Terao. The classical example arises from the family of discriminantal (Selberg-type) arrangements, parametrized by the configuration space \(b_k\) of \(k\) labelled points in the plane. In this case the Gauss-Manin connection was described by \textit{K. Aomoto} [J. Math. Soc. Japan 39, 191--208 (1987; Zbl 0619.32010)]. (N.B., In general, the realization space of \(G\) need not have any smooth components.)
Let \(\Lambda={\mathbb C}[x_1^{\pm 1}, \ldots, x_n^{\pm 1}]\) denote the ring of Laurent polynomials. In previous work Cohen and Orlik used stratified Morse theory to construct a combinatorial cochain complex \((K^\bullet({\mathcal A}),\Delta(x))\) of \(\Lambda\)-modules and \(\Lambda\)-homomorphisms, such that specialization \({ x_j} \mapsto { t_j}\) yields a complex whose cohomology is \(H^*(M,{\mathcal L}_t).\) Here the authors develop a parametrized version of this construction. The universal \(\Lambda\)-complexes \((K^\bullet({\mathcal A}_b),\Delta(x))\) form a bundle over \( B\), with a universal monodromy operator \(\Phi^\bullet(x)\) acting by chain automorphisms on \((K^\bullet({\mathcal A}_{ b}),\Delta(x))\). The linearization at \(t={ 1}\) of \((K^\bullet({\mathcal A}_b),\Delta(x))\) is the Aomoto complex of \({\mathcal A}_b\), with ground ring \({\mathbb C}[y_1,\ldots, y_n].\) The linearization of \(\Phi^\bullet(x)\) acts on the Aomoto complex, inducing the Gauss-Manin connection upon specialization \(y_j\mapsto \lambda_j.\) Fixing \(\gamma\in \pi_1(b)\), an eigenvalue \(r(x)\) of \(\Phi^q(x)(\gamma)\) determines a nowhere zero analytic function \(({\mathbb C}^*)^n\to {\mathbb C}\) and thus is given by \(r(x)=x_1^{m_1}\cdots x_n^{m_n}\) for some \((m_1,\ldots, m_n)\in {\mathbb Z}^n.\) It follows that the eigenvalues of the Gauss-Manin connection are integral linear combinations of the weights \(\lambda_i\).
The constructions are illustrated with an extended example. Gauss-Manin connection; hyperplane arrangement; local system Cohen D, Orlik P. Gauss-Manin connections for arrangements, I. Eigenvalues.

These notes represent a survey of the main points of the authors' explicit proof of canonical desingularization of an algebraic subvariety (resp. analytic subspace) \(X\) of an algebraic (resp. analytic) manifold \(M\), in characteristic zero. The full details of this result are planned for a forthcoming work `Canonical desingularization in characteristic zero: a simple constructive proof'. The authors' result is essentially a new proof of Hironaka's theorem, although they also give an explicit resolution algorithm. The centres of the blowings-up used in the desingularization are determined by a local invariant of the singularity of \(X\), defined over a sequence of blowings-up.
The first section of this paper describes the general strategy of the proof and ends with a precise statement of the main theorem. --- The second section recalls the definitions and basic notions involved in resolution of singularities (analytic space, blowing-up, strict transform, normal crossings, etc.). --- The third section introduces the local invariant of a singularity of \(X\) and begins an analysis of this invariant. --- The fourth section gives a key part of the proof that it is in fact invariant. Much of these notes deal with the special case where \(X\) is a hypersurface, and the general case involves a reduction to this case. canonical desingularization of an algebraic subvariety; resolution algorithm Zhou, X.

Then there exist sequences of monomial transforms \(R\rightarrow R'\), \(S\rightarrow S'\) along \(V\) such that \(R'\), \(S'\) are regular local rings, \(S'\) dominates \(R'\) and there exist regular system of parameters \((y_1,\ldots,y_n)\) in \(S'\), \((x_1,\ldots,x_m)\) in \(R'\), units \(\beta_1,\ldots,\beta_n\in S'\) and a \(m\times n\) matrix \((c_{ij})\) of non-negative integers such that Rank\((c_{ij})=m\) and \(x_i=\Pi_{j=1}^ny_j^{c_{ij}}\beta_i\), \(1\leq i\leq m\).

It is known that the linear system \(|{\mathcal O}_X(d-n-2)\otimes \omega_X^\vee|\) is base point free, as their elements can be seen as the double point divisors of linear projections onto hypersurfaces of \(\mathbb{P}^{n+1}\). Moreover, it has been proved (see the Introduction of the paper under review and references therein) that they separate points unless \(X \subset \mathbb{P}^N\) is of a particular type (a projection of a so called \textit{Roth variety}). The main purpose of this paper is to prove further positivity results on these linear systems. To be precise: It is shown that the base locus of \(|{\mathcal O}_X(d-n-e-1)\otimes \omega_X^\vee|\) is a finite set except if \(X \subset \mathbb{P}^N\) belongs to a finite list of projective varieties (completely stated, see Thm. 4). For the study of these exceptions, varieties whose generic inner projections have exceptional divisors are classified.
Some applications of these results are also provided: inequalities for the delta and sectional genera, property \((N_{k-d+e})\) for \({\mathcal O}_X(k)\) and new evidences of the regularity conjecture, in fact that \({\mathcal O}_X\) is \((d-e)\)-regular. double point divisors; base locus; linear projections; regularity Noma, A., Generic inner projections of projective varieties and an application to the positivity of double point divisors, Trans.

For special linear systems \({\mathfrak L}(d, m_1,\dots,m_r)\) of hypersurfaces of degree \(d\) passing through a scheme \(Z=m_1p_1+\cdots+m_rp_r\) of fat points in general position in \(\mathbb{P}^2\), there exists a well-studied and partially proven characterization due to B. Harbourne and A. Hirschowitz [see \textit{B. Harbourne}, Can. Math. Soc. Conf. Proc. 6, 95--111 (1986; Zbl 0611.14002) and \textit{A. Hirschowitz}, J. Reine Angew. Math. 397, 208--213 (1989; Zbl 0686.14013)]. The authors study the analogous linear systems in \(\mathbb{P}^3\). Their main tool is the cubic Cremona transformation Cr :\((x_0:x_1: x_2:x_3)\mapsto(x_0^{-1}:x_1^{-1};x_1^{-1}:x_3^{-1})\). They describe the action of Cr on the Picard group of the blow-up \(X\) of \(\mathbb{P}^3\) at \(\{p_1,\dots,p_r\}\) and use it to bring the linear systems into a standard form. For linear systems in standard form, they present a conjectural characterization of the special ones. In [\textit{C. De Volder} and \textit{A. Laface}, J. Algebra 310, No. 1, 207--217 (2007; Zbl 1113.14036)], this conjecture has been verified for \(r\leq 8\) fat points. The authors also apply their conjecture to the ``homogeneous case'' \({\mathfrak L}(d,m,\dots,m)\) and provide further evidence for it in various other cases.

Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring.

We report here on an alternative approach which replaces hypersurfaces of maximal contact by generic projections. Projections can be defined in arbitrary characteristic, and this approach has led to new invariants when applied to the open problem of resolution of singularities over arbitrary fields. We show here how projections lead to a form of elimination of one variable using invariants that, to some extent, generalize the notion of discriminant.
This exposition draws special attention on this form of elimination, on its motivation, and its use as an alternative approach to inductive arguments in resolution of singularities. Using techniques of projections and elimination one can also recover some well known results. We illustrate this by showing that the Hilbert-Samuel stratum of a d-dimensional non-smooth variety can be described with equations involving at most d variables.
In addition this alternative approach, when applied over fields of characteristic zero, provides a conceptual simplification of the theorem of resolution of singularities as it trivializes the globalization of local invariants. resolution of singularities; Rees algebras Bravo, A; Villamayor U, OE, Elimination algebras and inductive arguments in resolution of singularities, Asian J.

There are already several different constructive approaches [cf. \textit{E. Bierstone} and \textit{P. Milman}, Invent. Math. 128, 207--302 (1997; Zbl 0896.14006) or \textit{O. Villamayor}, Ann. Sci. Éc. Norm. Supér., IV. Sér 22, 1--32 (1989; Zbl 0675.14003)]. The resolution process is based on the choice of an invariant which measures the singularities and drops under blowing up the maximal stratum of this invariant. The choice of the invariant and the way to compute it makes the difference between the approaches to resolve singularities. The definition of the invariant is quite involved. It is defined inductively using the knowledge of the resolution process up to this moment. The induction defining the invariant is given by the intersection of the variety with a so-called hypersurface of maximal contact. The choice of this hypersurface is not canonical and some effort is needed to define the invariant in a canonical way.
The approach of this paper is similar to the approach of Bierstone and Milman but based additionally on two observations. The resolution process defined as a sequence of blowing-ups the ambient spaces can be applied simultaneously to a class of equivalent singularities obtained by simple modifications, i.e. to resolve a singularity it is allowed to tune it before starting: In the equivalence class a convenient representative given by a so-called homogenized ideal is chosen. The restrictions of homogenized ideals to different hypersurfaces of maximal contact define locally analytically isomorphic singularities. resolution of singularities; algorithmic resolution Włodarczyk, Jarosław, Simple Hironaka resolution in characteristic zero, J.

For such a system, its expected dimension is edim \({\mathcal L} = \)max\(\{{n+d\choose n} - \sum ^s_{i=1}{n+m_i -1 \choose n}, -1\}\); when its actual dimension is greater, we say that the linear system is special. Let \(Z \subset {\mathbb P}^n\) be the scheme (of ``fat points'') associated to \({\mathcal L} \); we will use \({\mathcal L} \), by abuse of notation, also for the ideal sheaf \({\mathcal I}_Z \otimes {\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb P}^n}(d)\); to say that the linear system is special is equivalent to the fact that \(h^0({\mathcal L},{\mathbb P}^n)h^1({\mathcal L},{\mathbb P}^n) > 0\).
In the paper, the definition of a new expected dimension of a linear system is given, namely its expected linear dimension, ldim \({\mathcal L}\) , which takes into account the contribution of the linear base locus, and thus the notion of linear speciality is introduced and studied. We always have dim \({\mathcal L}\geq\) ldim \({\mathcal L} \geq \) edim \({\mathcal L}\). Sufficient conditions for a linear system to be linearly non-special for an arbitrary number of points and necessary conditions for a small number of points are given; the main tool for those results is the study of blow-ups of \({\mathbb P}^n\) at linear subspaces which are in the base locus of the system. linear systems; fat points; base locus; linear speciality; effective cone Brambilla, MC; Dumitrescu, O; Postinghel, E, On a notion of speciality of linear systems in \(\mathbb{P}^n\), Trans.

The first step is a unique factorization result for \(B(X, \sigma, L)\), generalizing the classical unique factorization in \(A = B(X,i,L)\), where \(i\) is the identity: The trick consists in substituting irreducible elements with products of irreducible elements in the same orbit. The classical minimal projective resolution:
\[
0 \to A \to K_A @>\alpha>>\bigoplus_{p \in \mathbb{P}^1_k} (K_A/A_p) \to A'(2) \to 0
\]
is now replaced by:

The approach is constructive, or algorithmic.
As is common in this type of work, one considers instead a similar problem for more technical auxiliary objects. In the present article, these are the so-called singular mobiles. These are systems \((W, \mathcal I,c,D,E)\), where \(W\) is a regular variety, \(\mathcal I\) a coherent sheaf of ideals on \(W\), \(c\) a positive integer and \(D=D_n, \dots, D_1\), \(E=E_n, \dots, E_1\) strings of normal crossing divisors satisfying certain conditions. These mobiles are useful to formalize a critical inductive step in the resolution process. A full presentation of this theory is given in \textit{S. Encinas} and \textit{H. Hauser} [Comment. Math. Helv. 77, 821--845 (2002; Zbl 1059.14022)].
The article under review includes introductory examples, a discussion of the basic concepts, blowing-ups, transforms, order and other invariants, and the notion of mobiles, as well as many examples. A large bibliography on the subject follows. This paper, together with \textit{H. Hauser} [Bull. Am. Math. Soc. 40, 323--403 (2003; Zbl 1030.14007)], is a good introduction to the subject. singularity; resolution; blowing-up; mobile Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Singularities in algebraic geometry Desingularization of ideals and varieties | 0 |

For instance, a function field over a perfect field is a DF-field.
The authors recently proved resolution of singularities for a quasi-projective algebraic \(X\) variety of dimension three (a 3-fold) over a DF-field \(k\) (in the sense that there is a projective morphism \(\pi : {\tilde X} \to X\), inducing an isomorphism off \(S\), the singular locus of \(X\), such that \(\pi ^{-1}(S)\) is a divisor in \({\tilde X}\) with strict normal crossings). This theorem improves previously known results on resolution of 3-folds in characteristic \(p\), which required stronger assumptions on the base field.
In their proof the authors use, following a strategy proposed by Zariski, and successfully followed by himself in characteristic zero, valuation-theoretic methods: prove local uniformization first and then by patching deduce the theorem. This proof is presented in two parts. In the present paper they show how, for a 3-fold over any field of characteristic \(p > 0\), desingularization follows from a special uniformization result. Namely, essentially it says that if one can prove local uniformization for valuations \(W \) which dominate the local ring of an Artin-Schreier (A-S) or a purely inseparable (p.i.) singularity, then desingularization is available. An A-S (resp. p.i) singularity is one of the form \(S={\text{Spec}} ((R[X]/(h))_{(X,M)})\), where \((R,M)\) is a local, three dimensional regular local ring, essentially of finite type over a field \(k\) of characteristic \(p > 0\), \(X\) an indeterminate, \(h=X^p - g ^{p-1}+f\), with \(f\) and \(g\) in \(M\), \(g \not=0\) (resp. \(f \in M\) and \(g=0\)). In another paper they show that when \(k\) is a DF-field, this type of local uniformization is always possible, concluding the proof of their Main Theorem (see \url{http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/hal-00139445}).
In the article being reviewed, the authors use refinements of the original valuation-theoretic approach of Zariski and ramification methods pioneered by Abhyankar, as well as a variety of other algebraic and geometric techniques. As usually in this kind of work, parts of the article are highly technical.

The local rings of closed points of \(\text{Bl}_{\mathfrak m}(R)\), the blow-up of \(\text{Spec}(R)\) at its closed point, lie in \(\Omega(R)\), and are called the quadratic transforms of \(R\) or the points in the first neighborhood of \(R\). For any \(S\), \(T \in\Omega(R)\) with \(S\subset T\), the ring \(T\) dominates \(S\), there exists a uniquely determined sequence \(S=:S_0\subsetneqq S_1\subsetneqq \cdots\subsetneqq S_n=:T\) such that \(S_i\) is a quadratic transform of \(S_{i-1}\) which is called the quadratic sequence between \(S\) and \(T\), and the residue field of \(T\) is a finite extension of the residue field of \(S\); its degree shall be denoted by \([T:S]\). For \(S\), \(T\in \Omega(R)\) with \(S\subset T\) one says that \(T\) is proximate to \(S\), denoted by \(S\prec T\), if the discrete valuation ring defined by the order function of the maximal ideal of \(S\) contains \(T\). For each \(f\in R\) we have the (strict) transform \((fR)^S\) of the ideal \(fR\) in \(S\) (for these results which do not use the authors' language, one should confer papers of \textit{J.

A cluster \({\mathcal K}\) with origin \(R\) is a finite subset of \(\Omega(R)\) with \(R\in {\mathcal K}\) and the following additional property: If \(S\in{\mathcal K}\), then all the rings of the quadratic sequence between \(S\) and \(R\) belong to \({\mathcal K}\), also. A pair \(({\mathcal K},\nu)\) where \({\mathcal K}\) is a cluster and \(\nu\colon {\mathcal K}\to \mathbb Z\) is a map, is called a weighted cluster. A weighted cluster is called consistent if one has \(\nu_S-\sum_{T\in{\mathcal K},S\prec T}[T:S]\nu_T\geq0\) for every \(S\in{\mathcal K}\). To every weighted cluster \(({\mathcal K},\nu)\) one can associate a complete ideal \(H_{\mathcal K}\) of \(R\) of finite colength. Also in this more general context one can define for weighted clusters a process called unloading [cf.\ the first author's book, chapter 4, section 4.6] which associates to a weighted cluster \(({\mathcal K},\nu)\) a new weighted cluster \(({\mathcal K'},\nu')\) in such a way that \(H_{\mathcal K}=H_{\mathcal K'}\), and that after a finite number of steps one gets a consistent cluster. The ideal associated to a consistent cluster is the unique complete finite colength ideal \(\mathfrak a\) of \(R\) with \(\text{ord}_S(\mathfrak a^S)\geq \nu_S\) for all \(S\in {\mathcal K}\). An element \(f\in R\) is said to go through \({\mathcal K}\) if \(f\in H_{\mathcal K}\), and \(f\) is said to go sharply through \({\mathcal K}\) if \(\text{ord}_S((fR)^S)=\nu_S\) for all \(S\in {\mathcal K}\) and \(f\) has no singular points outside \({\mathcal K}\) (a point \(S\in\Omega(R)\) is called a non-singular point of \(f\) if \(\text{ord}_S((fR)^S)=1\) and no \(T\in\Omega(R)\) with \(T\supset S\) and \((fR)^T\neq T\) is a satellite of \(S\), i.e. the quadratic sequence from \(S\) to \(T\) contains only one point which is proximate to \(T\)). The authors of the paper under review start with a ring \(R\) of formal power series in two indeterminates over the complex numbers; all what has been said above remains true if one takes the adic completion of all the rings involved. They consider two non-zero elements \(f\), \(g\in R\) which are not units, which satisfy \(\text{ord}_R(f)\leq \text{ord}_R(g)=:n\) and have no common tangent (equivalently, for any quadratic transform \(S\) of \(R\) not both ideals \((fR)^S\), \((gR)^S\) are proper ideals of \(S\)) and they study the family \(h^\lambda:=f+\lambda g\), \(\lambda\in \mathbb C\).
Their main result is theorem \(4.6\) which states: There exists a weighted cluster \({\mathcal T}\) and a finite subset \(M\) of the complex numbers such that, for all \(\lambda\in \mathbb C\setminus M\), , the element \(h^\lambda\) goes sharply through \({\mathcal T}\), and no two such elements have a common point outside \({\mathcal T}\). This result determines -- in the case of convergent power series -- the topological type of \(h^\lambda\) in terms of \(n\) and the singularity of \(f\).

There have been attempts to prove this -- unfortunately containing gaps. The article under review discusses a local version [cf. \textit{D. Cutkosky's} results, ``Local monomialization and factorization of morphisms'', Astérisque. 260 (Paris: Société Mathématique de France) (1999; Zbl 0941.14001)]. The author shows a toric version of local strong factorization.
Theorem 0.2. Let \(\sigma\) and \(\tau\) be nonsingular cones, and let \(v\in\sigma\cap \tau\) be a vector with rationally independent coordinates. Then there exists a nonsingular cone \(\rho\) obtained from both \( \sigma\) and \(\tau\) by sequences of smooth star subdivisions along \(v\).
Using the monomialization theorem of Cutkosky [loc. cit], this is applied to obtain a complete proof of the local factorization conjecture for local rings dominated by a valuation.

Such systems have an expected dimension, and the interpolation problem mainly consists of determining the value of \(\dim(L)\), and finding conditions which imply that the value is as expected. Even in the case when the \(P_i\)'s are general points in \(\mathbb P^n\) a complete answer is unknown, for \(n\geq 2\), though there are conjectures and partial results, expecially for the case of points in the plane. When the \(P_i\)'s are located in special position the interpolation problem is widely open. The authors consider the case of points contained in a rational normal curve \(C\). The main result provides the value of the dimension of \(L\) for any \(n,d,m_1,\dots,m_s\) and for a general choice of \(s\) points in \(C\). The formula is expressed recursively in terms of the numerical data. In the case where all multiplicities \(m_i\) are equal to \(2\), the formula determines an Alexander-Hirschowitz type theorem for points on a rational normal curve, which can be applied to the study of some special decompositions of symmetric tensors. The authors also point out that the blow-up \(X_s^n\) of \(\mathbb P^n\) at \(s\) points in the curve \(C\) is a Mori dream space, and the formula for \(\dim(L)\) is connected with the description of the nef cone and the Mori chamber decomposition of the effective cone of \(X_s^n\). polynomial interpolation; linear systems; fat points; rational normal curves; special effect varieties Divisors, linear systems, invertible sheaves, Singularities of surfaces or higher-dimensional varieties, Hypersurfaces and algebraic geometry On linear systems with multiple points on a rational normal curve | 0 |
Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring.

Some details are sketched, with references to recent and forthcoming papers of the author. It starts with classical results of Zariski (his fundamental theorem on local uniformization, the theorem on resolution of surface-singularities), illustrates first difficulties, mentions Abhyankar's results on resolution in dimension \(\leq 3\) and Hironaka's famous theorem on the existence of a resolution over a field of characteristic 0. The second part of the paper explains the problem of monomialization (which in general does not have a solution in positive characteristics). Theorem 3.1 [proved in the author's book ``Local monomialization and factorization of morphisms'', Astérisque No. 260 (Paris: Société Mathématique de France) (1999; Zbl 0941.14001)] gives an affirmative answer to a question of Abhyankar on simultaneous resolution along a valuation in characteristic 0. The final section is devoted to several results on monomialization of morphisms. Together with an overview of the proof, the author announces the existence of a global monomialization of a proper dominant morphism from a 3-fold to a surface (in characteristic 0). resolution of singularities; uniformization Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Rational and birational maps, Singularities in algebraic geometry, Morphisms of commutative rings Local monomialization. | 0 |

The linear system \(S_ t\) is said to be regular if \(H^ 1({\mathbb{P}}^ 2,I(t))=0\) and it is a classical problem to decide when \(S_ t\) is regular.
The goal of this paper is to fill a gap in a proof of a theorem by \textit{B. Segre} [cf. Atti Convegno internaz.

This theorem called General Néron Desingularization was first proved by the second author [Nagoya Math. J. 100, 97--126 (1985; Zbl 0561.14008)]. Later different proofs were given by \textit{M.

In this paper we go one step further. We give an algorithmic proof of the General Néron Desingularization theorem for 2-dimensional local rings and morphisms with small singular locus. The main idea of the proof is to reduce the problem to the one-dimensional case. Based on this proof we give an algorithm to compute the desingularization. smooth morphisms; regular morphisms; Néron desingularization Pfister, G.; Popescu, D., \textit{Construction of Neron Desingularization for Two Dimensional Rings}. arXiv:AC/1612.01827 Étale and flat extensions; Henselization; Artin approximation, Local structure of morphisms in algebraic geometry: étale, flat, etc., Regular local rings, Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects) Construction of Néron desingularization for two dimensional rings | 0 |

Let \(\{x_ 1, \dots, x_ d\}\) denote a system of parameters of the ring \(A\). The monomial conjecture (MC) [see \textit{M. Hochster}, Nagoya Math. J. 51, 25- 43 (1973; Zbl 0268.13004)], states that \(x_ 1^ t \dots x_ d^ t \notin (x_ 1^{t+1}, \dots, x_ d^{t+1})A\) for all \(t \geq 1\) for all systems of parameters in any local ring \(A\). It is proved by M. Hochster [see the cited paper], that (MC) is true, e.g., whenever \(A\) is an equicharacteristic local ring. Moreover he showed also that (MC) is equivalent to the direct summand conjecture.
In the present paper the authors prove an interesting equivalent condition for (MC) which says: For a local complete intersection ring \(R\) and an ideal \({\mathfrak a}\) consisting of zero divisors the annihilator \(0:_ R {\mathfrak a}\) of \({\mathfrak a}\) is not contained in any parameter ideal of \(R\).

Algebra 59, 16--38 (1979; Zbl 0441.14013)] describing an ideal of orbits of sums of highest vectors for irreducible representations of a semisimple algebraic group defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. The Zariski closures of these orbits are called \(S\)-varieties. In their theorem it was assumed that the highest weights are linearly independent.

Such a conjecture is known to hold in some cases.

The aim of the present paper is twofold. First there is an alternative approach to the work of Achilles and Manaresi (loc. cit.) by giving an algebraic proof of the invariance of the Stückrad-Vogel cycle under deformation to the normal cone by using the extended Rees ring as a natural deformation space and by refining and extending somewhat their basic theorem which discusses the connection between distinguished and rational components. -- The second aim is to revisit a classical result of \textit{D.

Soc. 50, 145-158 (1953; Zbl 0057.02601)], which states that the correct number of sufficiently general elements in an ideal of a local ring generates a minimal reduction. -- Finally there is a sketch of a geometrical proof of this classical result by using the Cayley form of a variety.

His answer was very clear. He convinced me that this is a technique worth learning. Furthermore, I believe that it is magical that both mathematical meanings for the word ``resolve'' come into play in this technique. Suppose \(R\) is the coordinate ring of the algebraic variety \(Y\). For the sake of concreteness, let us assume that \(Y\) is a subvariety of affine \(N\)-space over the algebraically closed field \(\mathbb K\). In this setting, \(R\) is equal to \(P/I\), where \(P\) is a polynomial ring in \(N\) variables over \(\mathbb K\) and \(I\) is the ideal of polynomials which vanish on \(Y\). To employ the geometric method for finding the resolution of \(R\) by free \(P\)-modules, one first resolves the singularity. Let \(Z\to Y\) be a desingularization of \(Y\). Now, \(Z\) is smooth; so, \(Z\) is defined by a regular sequence and the coordinate ring of \(Z\) is resolved by the Koszul complex for this regular sequence. The Koszul complex resolution is the most completely understood and straightforward of all possible resolutions. To resolve the coordinate ring of \(Y\), one ``need only'' push the Koszul complex down to \(Y\) along the desingularization. Of course, the devil is in the details.
This geometric method was introduced by George Kempf in a series of papers which were published in the early 1970's. The first stunning application of this technique was made by Alain Lascoux in 1978. Suppose the variety \(Y\) is the ``determinantal variety'' of all linear transformations from \(\mathbb K^n\to\mathbb K^m\) of rank less than \(r\). (In the present setting, \(Y\) is a subvariety of affine \(N=mn\) space.) Before Lascoux, the resolution of the coordinate ring, \(R\), of \(Y\) was known only when \(r\) is equal to the minimum of \(n\) and \(m\) (this is the maximal order minor case and the resolution is the Eagon-Northcott resolution of 1962) or when \(n=m\) were equal and \(r=n-1\) (in this, submaximal, case, \(R\) is Gorenstein of codimension \(4\) and the resolution is the Gulliksen-Negård resolution of 1972). Lascoux combined the geometric method, the representation theory of the general linear group, and Raoul Bott's theorem about the cohomology of line bundles on homogeneous spaces to resolve the coordinate ring of all determinantal varieties in characteristic zero. The representation theory of general linear group is less complicated in characteristic zero than it is in positive characteristic. Also, Bott's theorem is definitely a characteristic zero theorem. On the other hand, the Eagon-Northcott complex, the Gulliksen-Negård complex, and the Akin-Buchsbaum-Weyman complex of 1981, which resolves the ring defined by submaximal minors for arbitrary \(m\) and \(n\) all are independent of characteristic. It was not known until Mitsuyasu Hashimoto's work in the 1990's that for general configurations of \(m\), \(n\), and \(r\), the Betti numbers of \(R\) really depend on the characteristic of \(\mathbb K\).
The geometric method also applies to Schubert varieties in various homogeneous spaces, determinantal varieties for symmetric and alternating matrices, conjugacy classes in classical Lie algebras, varieties of complexes, and many more situations. Depending upon one's point of view (a geometer might start with a variety and look for the equations; whereas an algebraist might start with the equations) the geometric method allows one to find the coordinate ring of particular varieties, find the equations which vanish on the varieties, prove Cohen-Macaulayness, prove that certain varieties have rational singularities.
It is all here in one place, with one uniform notation throughout: the combinatorics and representation theory of Schur and Weyl modules, an explanation and proof of Bott's theorem, the geometric method laid out very slowly, and oodles of examples. Each chapter contains exercises which extend the material given in the text. Many of these exercises outline a way to re-do, using the geometric method, results which appear in the literature using ad-hoc methods. If you have considered learning this method, but have been intimidated away from pulling the ideas out of the existing published literature, then read this book. The value of having one uniform notation can not be overestimated. If you pull any two papers about Schur modules out of the literature, they will have different conventions about how a Ferrers diagram should be drawn and when a tableau is standard (and it does not matter if the two papers have the same author!). In the long run, the ideas work whether the boxes are stacked on the floor or hang from the ceiling; but in the short run, if one adopts Ian Macdonald's remedy ``Readers who prefer this convention should read this book upside down in a mirror'', then one is likely to suffer eye strain, if not more serious disorientation.
I have one slight caution to readers of Weyman's book. The phrase ``If \(R\) has characteristic zero'' almost always means ``If \(R\) contains a field of characteristic zero''. In particular, the ring of integers is not one of the rings under consideration. In practice, almost all calculations are made over a field and then transferred to an arbitrary ring by way of a base change; so there really is no confusion, unless one picked up one page out of context without knowing the general approach.
The book under review has instantly became the standard reference. I have seen referees' reports that have instructed the author to ``express the results in the language of Weyman's new book''. I am aware of numerous seminars that are reading Weyman's book and finding new applications of its methods.

The classification of all the special linear systems through double points is due to Alexander and Hirschowitz, and this is the only case completely solved. In the case of linear systems in \({\mathbb P}^2\) many efforts have been made in order to prove the Segre, Harbourne, Gimigliano and Hirschowitz conjecture. In dimension greater than two, the situation is much more complicated and less clear.
In the paper under review, the authors investigate the behaviour of certain special linear systems in \({\mathbb P}^n\) for \(2\leq n\leq 4\), in order to get interesting examples. In particular they study the multiples of the divisors corresponding to the special linear systems listed in the Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem. This analysis leads the authors to propose interesting questions and open problems. linear systems; fat points Laface, A; Ugaglia, L, On multiples of divisors associated to Veronese embeddings with defective secant variety, Bull.

This fully generalizes \textit{C. S. Seshadri}'s theorem [Proc. int. symp. on algebraic geometry Kyoto, 155--184 (1977; Zbl 0142.14005)] that the variety of specializations of \((2\times 2)\)-matrix algebras is smooth in characteristic \(\neq 2\). As an application, a construction of Seshadri [loc. cit.] is shown in a characteristic-free way to desingularize the moduli space of rank 2 even degree semi-stable vector bundles on a complete curve. As another application, a construction of \textit{M. V. Nori} over \(\mathbb{Z}\) [Appendix in loc. cit.] is extended to the case of a normal domain which is a universally Japanese (Nagata) ring and is shown to desingularize the Artin moduli space [\textit{M. Artin}, J. Algebra 11, 532--563 (1969; Zbl 0222.16007)] of invariants of several matrices in rank 2. This desingularization is shown to have a good specialization property it the Artin moduli space has geometrically reduced fibers -- for example this happens over \(\mathbb{Z}\). Essential use is made of Kneser's concept of `semi regular quadratic modules'.

The problem of computing the CM type \(t(L_ 1,...L_ s)\) of the local ring at the origin was considered by \textit{A. V. Geramita} and \textit{F. Orecchia} [J. Algebra 70, 116-140 (1981; Zbl 0464.14007)], who mostly dwelled on the case when the ''direction numbers'' \(P_ 1,...P_ s\) of those lines, considered as points of \({\mathbb{P}}^ n\), are in generic s- position. By definition, this means that the \(s\times (_ n^{d+n})\) matrix G(d), obtained by evaluating all degree d monomials on \(n+1\) indeterminates at the homogeneous coordinates of \(P_ 1,...,P_ s\), has maximal possible rank for every \(d\geq 1.-\) The present authors obtain a general formula in the form: \(t(L_ 1,...L_ s)=\sum^{s- 1}_{j=r}\gamma (j)+rk G(s-1)-(_{\quad n}^{n+s-2})\) where the \(\gamma\) (j)'s are - in principle - computable from certain matrices obtained from G by row-transformations (one has also to assume the leading entries of the direction numbers equal to 1, but this is no restriction on the generality); the integer r is the minimal degree of s hypersurface passing through all s points; \(s\geq 2\) and \(n\geq 2.\)
This is used to deduce a useful expression in the case of generic s- position: \(t(L_ 1,...,L_ s)=\gamma (r)+s-(_{\quad n}^{r+n-1}).\) Examples are given to show that for s and n fixed, the type can vary even if the lines are in generic s-position. lines in affine space; Cohen-Macaulay ring; Gorenstein ring; singularity; lines in generic position; CM type; local ring at the origin Baruch, M.; Brown, W.

These techniques are closely related and all have something to do with Shokurov's connectedness principle -- see section 3.2. Though they do not as yet form a coherent method, they are intended to replace the combinatorial study of the resolution graph, started by \textit{V. A. Iskovskikh} and \textit{Yu. I. Manin} [Math. USSR, Sb. 15 (1971), 141-166 (1972); translation from Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 86(128), 140-166 (1971; Zbl 0222.14009)]. The author's goal is to provide concise but complete proofs of the known criteria for birational rigidity of 3-fold Mori fibre spaces. Chapter 2 contains a brief exposition of the Sarkisov program. Chapter 3 is a study of singularities of linear systems, based on Shokurov connectedness and inversion of adjunction, and represents the technical core of the paper. In chapter 4 are given several new proofs and generalisations of the rigidity theorem for conic bundles, first known by \textit{V. G. Sarkisov} [Math. USSR, Izv. 17, 177-202 (1981); translation from Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser. Mat. 44, 918-945 (1980; Zbl 0453.14017), Math. USSR, Izv. 20, 355-390 (1983); translation from Izv. Akad. Nauk SSSR, Ser.

Chapter 6 represents a review of the main known rigidity theorems for Fano 3-folds: hypersurfaces and complete intersections. As a pattern example, in section 6.2 is proved the [known by \textit{V.

The main combinatorial object associated to \(F\) is Hironaka's characteristic polygon \(\Delta(F)\). The original motivation of this work is: can the combinatorics bound, in some effective sense, the resolution process?
The paper studies in detail the resolution process for prepared equations, that \(F\) is a generic Weierstrass-Tchirnhausen equation, of the form \(Z^n +\sum_{k=0}^{n-2}a_k(X,Y)Z^k\) with \(a_k\) regular in \(X\) of order \(\nu_k=\nu(a_k)\geq n-k\).
The resolution strategy used is the following: (1) if \((Z,X)\) or \((Z, Y )\) are permissible curves, a monoidal transformation centered at them is performed, (2) otherwise, a quadratic transformation. For prepared equations bounds are given for the number of blow-ups needed before the multiplicity drops.

Some properties of complex analytic curve singularities generalize to quasi-ordinary singularities in higher dimensions, for example the existence of fractional power series parametrization, as well as the existence of some distinguished, {characteristic} monomials in the parametrization.
The paper gives two different affirmative solutions to a problem of Lipman: do the characteristic monomials of a reduced hypersurface quasi-ordinary singularity determine a procedure of embedded resolution of the singularity?
The first procedure builds a sequence of toric morphisms depending only on the characteristic monomials. Along the way characteristic monomials are defined for toric quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularities, and their properties are studied. The second procedure generalizes a method of Goldin and Tessier for plane branches. A key step is the re-embedding of the germ in a larger affine space using certain approximate roots of a Weierstrass polynomial. In the last two sections the two procedures are compared and a detailed example is worked out. singularities; embedded reolution; topological type; discriminant González Pérez, P.D.: Toric embedded resolutions of quasi-ordinary hypersurface singularities.

They then apply this result in order to give a partial proof of a conjecture raised by the reviewer, Harbourne and Huneke concerning containment relations between ordinary and symbolic powers of planar point ideals.
One of the central problems in the theory of linear series is the study of linear systems of hypersurfaces in projective spaces with assigned base schemes. This problem is related to various other topics, for example to the polynomial interpolation, the Waring problem, the classification of defective higher secant varieties and to the problem of containment relations between ordinary and symbolic powers of ideals.
Given a finite number \(s\) of points \(P_1,\dots, P_s \in \mathbb{P}^n\) and positive integers \(m_1, \dots ,m_s\), let \({\mathcal{L}}={\mathcal{L}}_{n}(t; m_1,\dots, m_s)\) be the linear system of hypersurfaces of \(\mathbb{P}^n\) of degree \(t\) vanishing in the given set of points with prescribed multiplicities. One is interested in determining the dimension of \({\mathcal{L}}\). The virtual dimension of this space
\[
\mathrm{vdim}({\mathcal{L}}):=\binom{n+t}{n}-1-\sum{i=1}^s \binom{n+m_i-1}{n}
\]
arises by assuming that the conditions imposed by the underlying set of points are independent. The expected dimension is defined as
\[
\mathrm{edim}({\mathcal{L}}):=\text{max}\{\mathrm{vdim}({\mathcal{L}}),-1\}.
\]
If the conditions imposed by the assigned points are not linearly independent, the actual dimension of \({\mathcal{L}}\) is greater than the expected one: in that case we say that \({\mathcal{L}}\) is special.
A subscheme \(Z\) of \(\mathbb{P}^n\), defined by an ideal of the form
\[
I_Z={\mathbf m}_{P_1}^{m_1}\cap \cdots \cap {\mathbf m}_{P_s}^{m_s}
\]
where \({\mathbf m}_P\) denotes the maximal ideal of a point \(P \in \mathbb{P}^n\) is called a fat points scheme and the ideal \(I_Z\) is called a fat points ideal. It follows from the long cohomology sequence attached to the twisted structure sequence of \(Z\)
\[
0 \to \mathcal{I}_Z(t) \to \mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^n}(t)\to \mathcal{O}_Z(t) \to 0
\]
that the system \(\mathcal{L}\) is non-special exactly when the cohomology group \(H^1(\mathbb{P}^n,\mathcal{I}_(t))\) vanishes.
The first main result of the paper the following vanishing theorem.
{Theorem A}. Let \(P_1,\dots, P_s\) be \(s\geq 4\) general planar points. Let \(m_1\geq m_2\geq \cdots \geq m_s\geq 1\) be fixed integers. If \(t \geq m_1+m_2\) and \(\mathrm{vdim}({\mathcal{L}}_{2}(t; m_1,\dots, m_s))\geq \frac{1}{2}(3m^2_4-7m_4+2)\) then
\[
h^1(\mathbb{P}^2,\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^2}\otimes {\mathbf m}_{P_1}^{m_1}\otimes \cdots \otimes {\mathbf m}_{P_s}^{m_s})=0
\]
that is the system \({\mathcal{L}}_{2}(t; m_1,\dots, m_s)\) is non-special.
Moving to the algebraic side, let \(\mathcal{I}\subset \mathbb{C}[\mathbb{P}^n]=\mathbb{C}[x_0, \dots, x_n]\) be a homogeneous ideal. The \(m\)th symbolic power \(\mathcal{I}^{(m)}\) of \(\mathcal{I}\) is defined as
\[
\mathcal{I}^{(m)}=\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{P}^n]\cap \left(\bigcap_{p\in \mathrm{Ass}(\mathcal{I})} \mathcal{I}^m \mathbb{C}[\mathbb{P}^n]_p\right)
\]
where the intersection is taken in the field of fractions of \(\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{P}^n]\). If \(\mathcal{I}\) is a fat points ideal then the symbolic power is simply
\[
\mathcal{I}^{(m)}=\bigcap_{i=1}^s {\mathbf m}_{P_i}^{m\cdot m_i}.
\]
There has been considerable interest in containment relations between usual and symbolic powers of homogeneous ideals over the last two decades. The most general results in this direction have been obtained with multiplier ideal techniques in characteristic zero by Ein, Lazarsfeld and Smith [\textit{L. Ein} et al., Invent. Math. 144, No. 2, 241--252 (2001; Zbl 1076.13501)] and using tight closures in positive characteristic by \textit{M. Hochster} and \textit{C. Huneke} [Invent. Math. 147, No. 2, 349--369 (2002; Zbl 1061.13005)]. Applying these results to a homogeneous ideal \(\mathcal{I}\) in the coordinate ring \(\mathbb{C}[\mathbb{P}^n]\) of the projective space we obtain the following containment statement: \(\mathcal{I}^{(nr)}\subset \mathcal{I}^r\) for all \(r\geq 0\).
There are examples showing that one cannot improve the power of the ideal \(\mathcal{I}\) on the right-hand side of the previous inequality. Nevertheless, it is natural to wonder to what extent this result can be improved; for example, under additional geometrical assumptions on the zero-locus of \(\mathcal{I}\). In particular, if \(\mathcal{I}\) is a fat points ideal, it is natural to wonder for which non-negative integers \(m\), \(r\) and \(j\) there is the containment
\[
\mathcal{I}^{(m)}\subset \mathcal{M}^j\mathcal{I}^r,
\]
where \(\mathcal{M}\) denotes the irrelevant ideal. Harbourne and Huneke suggested the following {
Conjecture} Let \(\mathcal{I}\) ne a fat points ideal in \(\mathbb{P}^n\). Then
\[
\mathcal{I}^{(nr)}\subset \mathcal{M}^{r(n-1)}\mathcal{I}^r,
\]
for all \(r\geq 1\).
This conjecture has been proved recently by \textit{B. Harbourne} and \textit{C. Huneke} [J. Ramanujan Math. Soc. 28A, 247--266 (2013; Zbl 1296.13018)] for general points in \(\mathbb{P}^2\) and by the first author for general points in \(\mathbb{P}^3\).
In this paper, the authors extend these results to a large family of fat points ideals in \(\mathbb{P}^2\). More specifically they show the following theorem.
{Theorem B}. Let \(\mathcal{I}={\mathbf m}_{P_1}^{m_1}\cap \cdots \cap {\mathbf m}_{P_s}^{m_s}\) be a fat points ideal supported on \(s\geq 9\) points in \(\mathbb{P}^2\). If one of the following conditions holds: {\parindent=6mm \begin{itemize} \item[(a)] at least \(s-1\) among the \(m_i\) are equal (almost homogeneous case); \item [(b)] \(m_1\geq \cdots \geq m_s\geq m_1/2\) (uniformly fat case);
\end{itemize}} then the conjecture above holds, that is, there is the containment
\[
\mathcal{I}^{(2r)}\subset \mathcal{M}^r\mathcal{I}^r,

Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring. A linear system \(S\) in \(A\) is the projectivization of a vector space \(V(S)\subset A\) free of common factors. \(S\) has a base point if \(S\subset{\mathfrak m}\). The process of resolution of the (base point of the) linear system by quadratic transformations is studied. Especially there is a description of the behaviour at the first infinitesimal neighborhood in terms of the Plücker formulas.

In the case of curve singularities, the invariants one often uses have a valuative nature, since one has a canonically associated finite set of valuations. Thus, the semigroup of values of a plane curve singularity characterizes Zariski's equisingularity type, and the semigroup of the Arf closure (resp. the saturation) characterizes the multiplicity sequence of the resolution process (resp. the equisingularity type of a generic plane projection) for space curve singularities. Saturation has been introduced by Zariski and by Pham-Teissier in a different way. One of the authors gave another definition of saturation which is very appropriate to handle the value semigroups arithmetically [\textit{A. Campillo}, in Singularities, Summer Inst. Arcata/Calif. 1981, Proc. Symp. Pure Math. 40, Part 1, 211-220 (1983; Zbl 0553.14013 and in Singularities, Banach Cent. Publ. 20, 121-137 (1988; see the preceding review)]. As a consequence the semigroups of one dimensional C. M. local rings have a nice structure which is very much simpler than that of the semigroups of plane curves and, even, they have a more natural geometrical interpretation. This nice structure follows from Arf property which is satisfied by the saturated rings. In this communication, we show how the definitions of Arf and saturation can be extended to the relative situation of an arbitrary (local) ring and finitely many discrete valuations of it, in such a way that the actual semigroups also have a nice structure providing reasonable invariants. As an application, one obtains a classification method for singularities having a canonical resolution. classifying singularities; space curve singularities; saturation; value semigroups; semigroups of one dimensional C.

Let the base field K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic \(p>2.\) The classification of the reduced irreducible triplets \((G,\rho,V)\) satisfying \(\dim(G)\geq \dim(V)\) was given in part I. In this part II, the author determines which triplets are prehomogeneous vector spaces and discusses their regularity. It turns out that if p is greater then 5, every regular prehomogeneous vector spaces of characteristic 0 induces a regular irreducible prehomogeneous vector space of characteristic \(p\) by reduction mod \(p\). There is one exception if \(p=5\) and there are 6 exceptions if \(p=3\). Moreover, four types of regular reduced irreducible prehomogeneous vector spaces of characteristic \(p>2\) which do not exist in case of characteristic 0 are obtained, they are as follows: \((GL(n),(1+p^ s)\Lambda_ 1,V(n^ 2))\) \((s>0\), \(n\geq 0)\); \((GL(n),\Lambda_ 1+p^ s\Lambda_{n-1},V(n^ 2))\) \((s>0\), \(n\geq 3)\); \((GL(4),\Lambda_ 1+\Lambda_ 2,V(16))\) \((p=5)\); \((GL(1)\times SL(3),\square \otimes (\Lambda_ 1+\Lambda_ 2),V(1)\otimes V(7))\) \((p=3)\). prehomogeneous vector spaces; characteristic p Zhi Jie Chen, A classification of irreducible prehomogeneous vector spaces over an algebraically closed field of characteristic \?.

The authors' criterion for spots involves birational domination of d-dimensional local domains (R,\({\mathfrak m})\) by a local domain (S,\({\mathfrak n})\), i.e. \(R\subseteq S\) have the same quotient field and \({\mathfrak m}=R\cap {\mathfrak n}\), and local domains (R,\({\mathfrak m})\) with property L [for ''Lipman'', see \textit{J. Lipmann}, Ann. Math., II. Ser. 107, 151-207 (1978; Zbl 0349.14004)] which means that every d-dimensional normal spot birationally dominating R is analytically irreducible.
Thus the main theorem states that if (R,\({\mathfrak m})\) is a d-dimensional analytically unramified local domain with property L, (S,\({\mathfrak n})\) is either normal or quasi-unmixed and S birationally dominates R, then S is a spot over R. Applications are given for 2-dimensional regular and for excellent local domains, both of which have property L. A similar result is proved for local domains (R,\({\mathfrak m})\) with property \(L_ k\) under which the extension rings now have dimension k. local affine domain; spot over a local ring; analytically unramified local domain 19.Heinzer, W., Huneke, C., Sally, J.D.: A criterion for spots.

Sommese and Van de Ven have proved that the linear system \(| L+K|\) is base-point free unless \((S,L)=({\mathbb{P}}^ 2,{\mathcal O}(i))\), \(i=1\) or 2, or \((S,L)\) is a scroll. The morphism \(\phi_{L+K}\) defined by \(| L+K|\) is called the adjunction mapping (associated to L). Let \(S\to^{\alpha}\hat S\to^{\beta}{\mathbb{P}}^ n\) be the Stein factorization of \(\phi_{L+K}\). The author concentrates on the structure of the morphism \(\beta\) and proves the following results:
Theorem 1: Suppose that \(\dim(\phi_{L+K}(S))=2\) and let K and S as above. Then \(\beta\) is an embedding except in the following cases: (i) S is obtained by blowing-up \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2\) at 7 points in general position, and either \(S=\hat S\) and \(L=-2K\), or the map \(\alpha: S\to \hat S\) is the blowing-up of \(\hat S\) at one point P and \(L=\alpha^*(-2\hat K)-E\), where \(E=\alpha^{-1}(P)\); (ii) S is obtained by blowing-up \({\mathbb{P}}^ 2\) at 8 points in general position, and \(L=-3K\); (iii) \(S={\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal E})\) is the projectivization of a rank 2 vector bundle \({\mathcal E}\) over an elliptic curve Y, where \({\mathcal E}\) is a non-split extension \(0\to {\mathcal O}_ Y\to {\mathcal E}\to {\mathcal O}_ Y(P)\to 0,\) \(P\in Y\). If \(\zeta ={\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal E})}(1)\) is the tautological invertible sheaf, then L is numerically equivalent to \(3\zeta\). - One observes that the finite map \(\beta\) is 2-to-1 in case (i), and 3-to-1 in cases (ii) and (iii).
Theorem 2: There exists an effective divisor \(C\in | L|\) which is a smooth hyperelliptic curve if and only if (S,L) belongs to one of the following cases: (a) \(({\mathbb{P}}^ 2,{\mathcal O}(i))\) with \(i=1, 2\) or 3; (b) S is a geometrically ruled surface over a hyperelliptic curve, and the restriction of L to a fibre has degree 2; (c) S is a rational ruled surface, and the restriction of L to a fibre has degree 2; (d) \(S={\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal E})\) is the projectivization of a rank 2 vector bundle \({\mathcal E}\) over an elliptic curve Y, where \({\mathcal E}\) is a non-split extension \(0\to {\mathcal O}_ Y\to {\mathcal E}\to {\mathcal O}_ Y(P)\to 0,\) with \(P\in Y\). - If \(\zeta ={\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal E})}(1)\) denotes the tautological invertible sheaf, and F is a fibre of \(S\to Y\), then L is numerically equivalent to \(2\zeta +F\); (e) \((S,L)\) is as described in cases (i) and (ii) of theorem 1. In cases (a),(b),(c) and (d), every smooth divisor \(D\in | L|\) is hyperelliptic, but in case (e) the general element of \(| L|\) is not hyperelliptic.
In this paper some bounds are also given for the degree of the fibres of a ruled surface in \({\mathbb{P}}^ n\). It is proved that a hyperelliptic curve C of genus \(g>0\) can be embedded in the rational surface \({\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb{P}}^ 1}\oplus {\mathcal O}_{{\mathbb{P}}^ 1}(-e))\) if and only if \(e\leq g+1\). If C is a general hyperelliptic curve of genus g and \(e\leq g+1\), then the curves in \({\mathbb{P}}({\mathcal O}_{P^ 1}\oplus {\mathcal O}_{P^ 1}(-e))\) isomorphic to C move in an algebraic family of dimension \(g+6\). hyperelliptic divisors; very ample divisor; canonical divisor; adjunction mapping; degree of the fibres of a ruled surface SERRANO F., ''The adjunction mapping and hyperelliptic divisors on a surface'', J.

Here a filtration of a local ring (A,m) is a decreasing sequence of non- zero ideals \((F^ n| n\in {\mathbb{Z}})\) such that \(F^ n=A\quad (n\leq 0),\quad F^ iF^ j\subseteq F^{i+j},\quad \cap F^ n=(0),\) and such that the Rees ring \({\mathcal R}=\oplus_{n\geq 0}F^ nT^ n \) is finitely generated over \(A={\mathcal R}_ 0\). For the authors a good filtration is one whose associated graded ring \(G=\oplus F^ n/F^{n+1} \) has good properties (e.g. normal domain with isolated singularity), and from such filtration (which is in general not ideal-adic) they derive properties of A.
In chapter 1, {\S}1 to 3 are devoted to such subjects as the filtered blowing-up \(X=\Pr oj({\mathcal R})\), local cohomology, canonical modules, divisor class group, dualizing complexes. In {\S}4 a criterion for X to be normal with only rational singularities is given. The main result of {\S}5 is: if A is a normal 2-dimensional local ring and G is a domain with isolated singularity, then the (dual graph of the exceptional divisor of) resolution of singularity of Spec(A) is star-shaped.
In chapter 2, conversely, normal 2-dimensional singularities with star- shaped resolution are studied. Such a resolution defines a filtration on A, and its associated graded ring G is compared with another graded ring called Pinkham-Demazure construction. homological theory of filtration; surface singularities; Rees ring; good filtration; filtered blowing-up; local cohomology; canonical modules; divisor class group; isolated singularity; singularities with star-shaped resolution Tomari, M.; Watanabe, K., Filtered rings, filtered blowing-ups and normal two-dimensional singularities with ''star-shaped'' resolution, Publ.

We recall that a set \(\{\phi \}=\{ \phi_1, \ldots, \phi_r \}\) of elements of \(R\) is said to be a \(p\)-basis of \(R\) over \(R'\) if the monomials \(\phi_1^{a_1}\cdots \phi_r^{a_r}\) (\(0\leq a_i \leq p-1\)) are linearly independent over \(R'\) and \(R=R'[\phi_1, \ldots ,\phi_r]\). For instance if \(R\) is regular and local, \(R'\) is local and \(R\) is a finite \(R'\)-module, \(R\) has a \(p\)-basis over \(R'\) if and only if \(R'\) is regular as well as \(R\).
The author works under the following assumptions:
1. \(R=k[x_1, \ldots , x_n]/I\) where \(k[x_1, \ldots ,x_n]\) is a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field \(k\) of characteristic \(p>0\) (in this setting \(R^p=\) \(k[x_1^p, \ldots , x_n^p]/\) \(I\cap k[x_1^p, \ldots , x_n^p]\));
2. both \(R\) and \(R'\) are regular domains;
3. \(R\) has a \(p\)-basis \(\{ \phi_1, \ldots , \phi_r\}\) over \(R^p\) where \(1 \leq r=\dim R (\leq n)\);
4. \([Q(R'):Q(R^p)]=p^l\) (\(1 \leq l \leq r-1\)) where \(Q(\cdot )\) denotes the field of fractions.
If \(R\) is a polynomial ring, a set of variables is always a \(p\)-basis of \(R\) over \(R^p\), so condition (3) is always satisfied in this case.
Let \(X=\operatorname{Specm}R\) be the non-singular affine variety consisting of the maximal ideals of \(R\) (with the induced Zariski topology). The above hypotheses imply that, given a subset \(\Gamma_{r-l}= \{b_1, \ldots ,b_{r-l}\}\) of elements of \(R\), the set \(M_{\Gamma_{r-l}} \subseteq X\) of the maximal ideals \(\mathfrak{m}\) of \(R\) such that \(\Gamma_{r-l}\) is a \(p\)-basis of \(R_{\mathfrak{m}}\) over \(R'_{\mathfrak{m} \cap R'}\) is an open subset of \(X\). In this paper the author studies the geometry of \(M_{\Gamma_{r-l}}\), assuming that the images of \(db_1, \ldots ,db_{r-l}\) in \(\Omega_{R/R^p}/\mathfrak{m}\Omega_{R/R^p}\) are linearly independent over \(k\) for all maximal ideals \(\mathfrak{m}\) of \(R\).
To this aim the author defines an explicit morphism \(\psi_{\{\phi \}}\), depending on \(\phi\), from \(X\) to the Grassmannian \(\mathbb{G}(l,V_{\{ \phi \}})\) of the subspaces of dimension \(l\) of the \(r\)-dimensional \(k\)-vector space \(V_{\{ \phi \}}=\bigoplus_{i=1}^r k d\phi_i \subseteq \bigoplus_{i=1}^r R d \phi_i = \Omega_{R/R^p}\) (the last equality comes from the fact that \(\{\phi_1, \ldots ,\phi_r \}\) is a \(p\)-basis of \(R\) over \(R^p\)). Similarly, the author defines another morphism \(\tau_{\Gamma_{r-l}}:X \rightarrow \mathbb{G}(r-l,V_{\{ \phi \}})\).
The main result of the paper (Theorem 2.5) states that the set \(M_{\Gamma_{r-l}}\) is equal to
\[
X \setminus p_1(( \cup_{\mathfrak{m}\in X} \{ \mathfrak{m} \} \times \psi_{\{ \phi \}}(\mathfrak{m})) \cap (\cup_{\mathfrak{m}\in X} \{ \mathfrak{m} \} \times \Sigma_1(\tau_{\Gamma_{r-l}}(\mathfrak{m})))),
\]
where \(p_1\) is the first projection of \(X \times \mathbb{G}(l,V_{ \{\phi \}})\), and \(\Sigma_1(\tau_{\Gamma_{r-l}}(\mathfrak{m}))\) denotes the Schubert cycle of \(\mathbb{G}(l,V_{ \{\phi \}})\) consisting in those \(l\)-dimensional vector spaces that meet \(\tau_{\Gamma_{r-l}}(\mathfrak{m})\) in a subspace of dimension at least 1.
Another interesting result is that \(R'\) admits a \(p\)-basis over \(R^p\) provided that \(\psi_{\{ \phi \}}\) is constant (Proposition 2.7).

Let \(\mathcal S\) be a Melkersson subcategory of \(R\)-modules. Among other things, we prove that if \(H^1_\Phi(M)\) is in \(\mathcal S\) for all \(i< t\) then \(H^i_\mathfrak a(M)\) is in \(\mathcal S\) for all \(i< t\) and for all \(\mathfrak a\in\Phi\). If \(\mathcal S\) is the class of \(R\)-modules \(N\) with \(\mathrm{dim}N\le k\) where \(k\ge -1\) is an integer, then \(H^i_\Phi(M)\) is in \(\mathcal S\) for all \(i< t\) if (and only if) \(H^i_\mathfrak a(M)\) is in \(\mathcal S\) for all \(i< t\) and for all \(\mathfrak a\in\Phi\) .As consequences we study and compare vanishing, Artinianness and support of general local cohomology and ordinary local cohomology supported at ideals of its system of ideals at initial points \(i< t\).

For an element \(A\in {\mathcal M}_n\) and a positive integer \(j\leq n\), \({\text s}_j(A)\) denotes the sum of all principal minors of size \(j\) of the matrix \(A\). The regular map \(\chi: {\mathcal M}_n\to {\mathbb F}^n\) defined by \(A\mapsto ({\text s}_1(A), {\text s}_2(A), \ldots, {\text s}_n(A))\) is called the characteristic map. For a linear subspace \({\mathcal L}\subseteq {\mathcal M}_n\), we define a subset \({\mathcal S}({\mathcal L})\) as follows:
\[
{\mathcal S}({\mathcal L})=\{ A\in {\mathcal M}_n: \chi(A+{\mathcal L}) \;\text{ is not dense in} \;{\mathbb F}^n\},
\]
which is called a singular set related to the chracteristic map \(\chi\).

Mora} in [Discrete Appl. Math. 33, No. 1--3, 161--190 (1991; Zbl 0752.13016)]. One of the seeds of the results described in [loc. cit.] is the paper [\textit{F. Mora}, Lect. Notes Comput. Sci. 144, 158--165 (1982; Zbl 0568.68029)] in which a tangent cone algorithm is presented. The authors of the paper under review reexamine some of Mora's results which are related to constructions of an associated graded ring (Section 2). Then, they present computational experiments about the application of this approach to the localization of the coordinate ring of an affine variety at an arbitrary prime ideal, based on the computer algebra system \texttt{Singular} (section 3). Several of these experiments are exhaustive and, for instance, give rise to some algorithms, such as an algorithm for lifting syzygies and, hence, a resolution. Useful examples are also provided.

Let \(p_1, \dots, p_r\) be general points in \(\mathbb{P}^2\) and let \(m_1, \dots, m_r\) be positive integers. By \(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1, \dots, m_r)\) we denote the system of plane curves of degree \(d\) with multiplicity at least \(m_j\) at \(p_j\), \(j=1, \dots, r\). \(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1^{\times s_1}, \dots, m_r^{\times s_r})\). is a system with repeated multiplicities. The expected dimension of \(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1, \dots, m_r)\) is
\[
\mathrm{edim}(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1, \dots, m_r)=\max \{\mathrm{vdim}(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1, \dots, m_r)), -1 \},
\]
where the virtual dimension, \(\mathrm{vdim}(\mathcal{L}(d;m_1, \dots, m_r))\), is \(\frac{d(d+3)}{2}-\sum_{j=1}^r {m_j+1 \choose 2}\). A system is special if its effective dimension is strictly greater than the expected one.
Recent years have seen significant advances in the understanding of linear systems with imposed multiple points. The case of points in general position is an important case, with several relevant contributions to the open conjectures of Nagata-Biran-Szemberg and Segre-Harbourne-Gimigliano-Hirschowitz. Most of these rely to some extent on semicontinuity and degeneration methods, which often allow setting up induction arguments on the multiplicity or the number of points.
The formalism of blowups has become an essential tool in te study of linear systems with multiple points, especially when using degeneration methods: the geometry of the variety blown up at the imposed points is important; induction arguments often lead to consider points that are not in general position, but ``infinitely near'', i.e. on blowups; useful degenerations are often built by blowing up the total space of some family.
The author aims to overview the set of blowup-based tools that are being used for specializing and degenerating linear systems, with emphasis on clusters of infinitely near points and Ciliberto-Miranda's \textit{blowup and twist}.
The author takes a rather elementary approach, which should serve as a friendly introduction and guide to original research articles. Sometimes full proof are not given or the exposition restricts to particular cases for the sake of simplicity; in such case the author includes references to the existing bibliography. In particular, the author deals only with linear systems of curves on smooth surfaces defined over the field of complex numbers. linear systems; degenerations methods, fat points Divisors, linear systems, invertible sheaves, Rational and birational maps, Fibrations, degenerations in algebraic geometry, Parametrization (Chow and Hilbert schemes) Blowup and specialization methods for the study of linear systems | 0 |
Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring.

The main result of this paper, the normal linearization theorem, gives criteria to guarantee that X is a G-vector bundle: the necessary hypotheses are that there is a closed G-stable subscheme \(X_ 0\) of X which contains all closed orbits, which is a local complete intersection in X, and into which there is a G-equivariant retraction \(p: X\to X_ 0,\) then X is a G-vector bundle over \(X_ 0.\)
This result is applied in the case of fix pointed actions (i.e. when the projection of X to the categorical quotient X/G induces a bijection from fixed points). If the fixed points are a local complete intersection, then X is a vector bundle over X/G, and if vector bundles are trivial on X/G then X is G-isomorphic to (X/G)\(\times W\), where W is a G-module whose only closed orbit is a unique fixed point, i.e. G is one fix pointed on W. In particular, if G is one fix pointed on X and the fixed point x is regular on X then (X,x) is G-isomorphic to \((T_ x(X),0).\)
These results in turn generalize previous results of Białynicki-Birula and Panyushev which identify certain actions as conjugate to linear actions on vector spaces.

Let \(D\) be a divisor on \(X\) and set \(U=X\setminus D\). Assume that \(X_0\cup D\) is a divisor with simple normal crossings. This paper centers around the question whether the number \(\nu_{f_U,\lambda}^j\) of Jordan blocks of largest possible size (\(j+1\) if \(0\leq j \leq n\)) for the eigenvalue \(\lambda\) of the monodromy on \(H^j(U_t,\mathbb C)\) can be computed as \(\dim H^j C^\bullet_{f,\lambda}\), where \(C^\bullet_{f,\lambda}\) is a complex determined by the combinatorics of the intersection lattice consisting of the irreducible components of \(X_0\) and their intersections. For \(\lambda=1\) this is true by the theory of limit mixed Hodge structures. An explicit example at the end of the paper shows that this is in general not the case, even when \(f\) is obtained by a desingularisation of a good compactification of an isolated hypersurface singularity. The \(\nu_{f_U,\lambda}^j\) depend on the positions of the singular points in the embedded resolution. Therefore there are no simple combinatorial formulas. The authors construct a complex \(B^\bullet_{f,\lambda}\) with \(B^j_{f,\lambda}\) a direct factor of \(C^j_{f,\lambda}\), such that \(\nu_{f_U,\lambda}^j=\dim H^j B^\bullet_{f,\lambda}\). The problem is the global triviality of certain local systems. For good compactifications of isolated singularities \(\nu_{f_U,\lambda}^n\) can be computed from the Euler characteristic of the complex \(B^\bullet_{f,\lambda}\). The authors give also sufficient conditions for equality of \(B^j_{f,\lambda}\) and \(C^j_{f,\lambda}\). These are in particular satisfied for superisolated surface singularities.

Such algorithms are available in characteristic zero. A natural and difficult problem is to find, given such an algorithm, bounds for the number of transformations necessary to desingularize a variety. The paper reviewed here makes an interesting contribution to the study of this problem. The setting of this paper is that of \textit{basic objects}: quadruples\((W,(J,c)),E\), where \(E\) is a regular variety (over a zero characteristic field), \(J\) a coherent sheaf of \({\mathcal O}_W\)-ideals, \(E\) a finite sequence of divisors with normal crossings and \(c\) a positive integer. A suitable algorithm of resolution for such basic objects rather easily induces one for resolution of algebraic varieties. The algorithm the author considers is that discussed by \textit{H. Hauser} and \textit{S. Encinas} [Comment. Math. Helv. 77, No. 4, 821--845 (2002; Zbl 1059.14022)], which is a variant of one initially proposed by O. Villamayor. Blanco obtains a bound for the number of transformations necessary for resolution in what she calls the non-exceptional monoidal case, namely, for basic objects where \(W={\mathbf A}^n_k=\mathrm{Spec}(R)\), \(R=k[X_1, \ldots ,X_n]\) (\(k\) a zero characteristic field) an \(J\) corresponding to the principal monomial ideal \((X_1^{a_1}\ldots , X_n ^{a_n})\subset R\), where \(a_1 + \cdots +a_n \geq c\). Even this seemingly special case is complicated, and the final answer involves the so-called Catalan numbers. (Not quite surprisingly, since in this situation the algorithm is of a rather combinatorial nature).
The monomial case is relevant, since the algorithm reduces the general case to a monomial situation. Moreover, monomial ideals are useful in the resolution of hypersurfaces which are toric varieties.

Denoted by \(\mathcal L=\mathcal L_{\mathbf m}\) the linear system of curves of \(\mathbb P^2\) of degree \(d\) passing through each point \(P_i\) with multiplicity \(m_i\), an open problem in algebraic geometry is determining the dimension of the linear system \(\mathcal L\). By Riemann-Roch, the expected dimension \(v\) of \(\mathcal L\) is:
\[
v=\chi(\mathcal L)-1=\frac{d(d+3)}{2}-\sum_{i=1}^n\frac{m_i(m_i+1)}{2}.
\]
We say that \(\mathcal L\) is special if both cohomology groups \(H^0(\mathcal L)\) and \(H^1(\mathcal L)\) are nontrivial. Of course, if \(\mathcal L\) is nonspecial and the linear system is nonempty, the dimension of the linear system \(\mathcal L\) is known and is precisely the expected one.
A conjecture by \textit{B. Harbourne} [in: Algebraic geometry, Proc. Conf., Vancouver/B.C. 1984, CMS Conf. Proc. 6, 95--111 (1986; Zbl 0611.14002)] and \textit{A. Hirschowitz} [Manuscr. Math. 50, 337--388 (1985; Zbl 0571.14002)] states that \(\mathcal L\) is special if and only if \(\text{Bs}(|\mathcal L|)\) contains a \((-1)\)-curve with multiplicity at least two. In the case in which \(m_i=m\) for each \(i\), so that the linear system \(\mathcal L\) is called homogeneous, the conjecture would imply that there are no special linear systems with \(n\geq 9\). This conjecture has been proved by \textit{C. Ciliberto, F. Cioffi, R. Miranda} and \textit{F. Orecchia} [in: Computer mathematics. Proceedings of the sixth Asian symposium (ASCM 2003), Beijing, China, April 17--19, 2003. River Edge, NJ: World Scientific. Lect. Notes Ser. Comput. 10, 87--102 (2003; Zbl 1053.41001)] for all homogeneous linear systems with \(m\leq 20\). With different methods, \textit{M. Dumnicki} and \textit{W. Jarnicki} [J. Symb. Comput. 42, No. 6, 621--635 (2007; Zbl 1126.14008)] and \textit{M. Dumnicki} [Ann. Polon. Math. 90.2, 131--143 (2007; Zbl 1107.14007)] verified the conjecture for \(m\leq 42\).
The method used by Ciliberto, Cioffi, Miranda and Orecchia is based on the idea of \textit{C. Ciliberto} and \textit{R. Miranda} [J. Reine Angew. Math. 501, 191--220 (1998; Zbl 0943.14002) and Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 352, No. 9, 4037--4050 (2000; Zbl 0959.14015)] of specializing the general points of \(\mathbb P^2\) to a line and then to study the degeneration of the linear system \(\mathcal L\).
In this paper the author studies the linear system \(\mathcal L\) specializing the points to an elliptic curve and in the main result of the paper he gives a bound on the dimension of \(\mathcal L\) by the dimension of a simpler linear system in \(\mathbb P^2\). The author provides also some applications of this result, giving, in the case the linear system \(\mathcal L\) is homogeneous and \(1+\tfrac{2mn-6d}{n-9}\) is a positive integer, a method to see if \(\mathcal L\) is nonspecial. multiple points; linear systems: homogeneous linear systems; elliptic curves Petrakiev, Ivan, Multiple points in \(\mathbf {P}^2\) and degenerations to elliptic curves, Proc.

Rank \(\ell\) local systems can then be identified with \(\ell\)-dimensional representations. Such a local system is irreducible if the corresponding representation is irreducible. It is called rigid if any other local system with the same conjugacy classes of local monodromies is isomorphic to it.
The author proposes a construction producing irreducible complex rigid local systems on \(\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{C}}\setminus S\) via quantum Schubert calculus and strange duality. These local systems are unitary and arise from a study of vertices in the polytopes controlling the multiplicative eigenvalue problem for the special unitary groups SU\((n)\) (i.e., determination of the possible eigenvalues of a product of unitary matrices given the eigenvalues of the matrices). Strange duals of the simplest vertices of these polytopes are shown to give all possible unitary irreducible rigid local systems. As a consequence one obtains that the ranks of unitary irreducible rigid local systems, including those with finite global monodromy, on \(\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{C}}\setminus S\) are bounded above if one fixes the cardinality \(s\) of the set \(S\) and requires the local monodromies to have orders dividing \(n\) for a fixed \(n\). The author answers a question of N. Katz by showing that there are no irreducible rigid local systems of rank greater than one, with finite global monodromy, all of whose local monodromies have orders dividing \(n\), when \(n\) is a prime number.
The author proves also that all unitary irreducible rigid local systems on \(\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{C}}\setminus S\) with finite local monodromies arise as solutions to the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equations on conformal blocks for the special linear group and gives an inductive mechanism for determining all vertices in the multiplicative eigenvalue problem for SU\((n)\). rigid local systems; multiplicative eigenvalue problem; strange duality; quantum Schubert calculus; KZ equations Structure of families (Picard-Lefschetz, monodromy, etc.), Algebraic moduli problems, moduli of vector bundles, Moduli and deformations for ordinary differential equations (e.g., Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation), Vector bundles on curves and their moduli Rigid local systems and the multiplicative eigenvalue problem | 0 |

This formalization is presented as a game, called \textit{Stratify}. Probably the name is due to the fact that, after all, a canonical resolution of singularities means to stratify, in a suitable natural way, the singular locus \(S\) of the variety (and those of its transforms) as a union of locally closed regular subvarieties, at each step of the desingularization process we blow up the ``worst'' stratum (which is closed).
At each stage of the game we have a finite weighted graph, which is successively modified by two players \(A\) and \(B\), according to certain rules. It is a rather curious game, because only player \(A\) can win (by reaching a \textit{final stage.} Player \(B\) can only prevent \(A\) from winning, perhaps forever. The game mimics, in a formal or combinatorial way, the different stages in an attempt to resolve singularities of varieties (in characteristic zero, where we may perform induction by using hypersurfaces of maximal contact), specially by taking blowups with permissible centers.
In the paper, after a review of known results on desingularization, the authors explain the game. The list of rules is rather long and complicated. Then the necessary algebro-geometric concepts are briefly reviewed. Next they explain how a resolution process can be translated into the rules of \textit{Stratify}. Actually, the process considered is not one trying to directly resolve singular algebraic varieties, but rather a resolution of pairs \((I,b)\), where \(I\) is a sheaf of nonzero ideals on a regular ambient variety and \(b\) is a natural number (or rather of some closely related objects, the \textit{singularity data}). It is known (and sketched in the paper) that solving this problem implies resolution of varieties. The authors prove that this resolution problem is equivalent to having a winning strategy for ``Stratify'', and finally they show that such a winning strategy is available. singularity; resolution; graph; transversality; singular datum; Rees algebra Singularities in algebraic geometry, Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Polynomials in real and complex fields: location of zeros (algebraic theorems), Directed graphs (digraphs), tournaments A game for the resolution of singularities | 0 |

In such a case all points of D have the same \((1)\quad multiplicity,\) \((2)\quad Hilbert\quad polynomial,\) and \((3)\quad Hilbert\) function. The corresponding three conditions are the same if X is a hypersurface, but in general they are different. One can ask for generalizations of the numerical conditions corresponding to (1), (2) and (3). And indeed, it is the main aim of the book under review to develop a general theory concerning these questions in the frame of commutative algebra. In this sense this book may be considered as a special course in commutative algebra. It has nine chapters and ends with a long appendix written by B. Moonen.
The first three chapters develop the basic facts and techniques concerning multiplicities, Hilbert functions, reduction of ideals, generalities about graded rings and blowing ups, characterizations of quasi-unmixed ideals, etc. - In chapter four various notions of equimultiplicity are presented (all of them coinciding in the hypersurface case), while in the next chapter one illustrates how these notions can be used in order to study the behaviour of the Cohen-Macaulay property undergoing a blowing up. - In chapter six one continues the idea of the previous chapter by using these conditions of equimultiplicity in the study of the numerical behaviour of singularities of blowing up singular centers. - In the last three chapters one discusses the local cohomology and the duality of graded rings (somehow in a parallel way with the case of local rings). For example, one studies local rings (A,m) with finite local cohomology \(H^ i_ m(A)\) for \(i<\dim (A)\), with applications to the affine cones over a projective variety; one also studies the Cohen-Macaulay properties of the Rees rings.
The appendix by B. Moonen has three parts: the first one treats the fundamentals of the local complex-analytic geometry, the second one deals with the geometric description of the multiplicity of a complex space- germ as the local mapping degree of a generic projection, and the third one with the theory of compact Stein neighbourhoods and the properties of normal flatness in the analytic case. The book is selfcontained and written with all details needed for a beginner. normal flatness; desingularization; Hilbert polynomial; Hilbert functions; blowing ups; equimultiplicity; local cohomology; Cohen- Macaulay; Rees rings; local complex-analytic geometry Herrmann, M.; Ikeda, S.; Orbanz, U., Equimultiplicity and blowing up. \textrm{An algebraic study, with an appendix by B.\ Moonen}, 3-540-15289-X, xviii+629 pp., (1988), Springer-Verlag, Berlin Multiplicity theory and related topics, Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Introductory exposition (textbooks, tutorial papers, etc.) pertaining to algebraic geometry, Research exposition (monographs, survey articles) pertaining to commutative algebra, Local cohomology and algebraic geometry, Local analytic geometry, Introductory exposition (textbooks, tutorial papers, etc.) pertaining to commutative algebra, Special types (Cohen-Macaulay, Gorenstein, Buchsbaum, etc.) Equimultiplicity and blowing up.

Ciliberto} conjectured [in: 3rd European congress of mathematics, Barcelona, 2000, Vol. I, Prog. Math. 201, 289--316 (2001; Zbl 1078.14534)] that, for general \(p_1,\dots,p_r\), special linear systems correspond to \((-1)\)-curves on the blow-up of \(\mathbb{P}^n\) in \(p_1,\dots, p_r\) associated to a curve in \(\mathbb{P}^n\) through \(p_1,\dots, p_r\) along which the general member of the linear system is singular.
Using the linear system \(\mathbb{L}_3(9,6,4, 4,4,4,4, 4,4,4)\), the authors disprove this conjecture. To show the speciality of this linear system, they apply the Riemann-Roch theorem to the threefold obtained by blowing up \(\mathbb{P}^3\) in nine general points. expected dimension; blowing-up; divisors Antonio Laface and Luca Ugaglia, A counterexample to a conjecture on linear systems on \Bbb P³, Adv.

Let \((A,{\mathfrak m})\) be a two-dimensional regular local ring. A linear system \(S\) in \(A\) is the projectivization of a vector space \(V(S)\subset A\) free of common factors. \(S\) has a base point if \(S\subset{\mathfrak m}\). The process of resolution of the (base point of the) linear system by quadratic transformations is studied. Especially there is a description of the behaviour at the first infinitesimal neighborhood in terms of the Plücker formulas. An effective characterization of the Zariski open set of equisingular elements in the linear system, i.e. elements \(f\in {\mathfrak m}\) with the same weighted desingularization tree, is given. resolution of linear system; quadratic transformations; Plücker formulas; equisingular elements Global theory and resolution of singularities (algebro-geometric aspects), Divisors, linear systems, invertible sheaves, Regular local rings, Equisingularity (topological and analytic) Plücker formula and the equisingularity set of a linear system Let \(R\) be a regular noetherian local ring of dimension \(n\geq 2\) and \((R_i)\equiv R=R_{0}\subset R_{1}\subset R_{2}\subset \dots \subset R_i\subset \dots \) be a sequence of successive quadratic transforms along a regular prime ideal \(\mathfrak p\) of \(R\) (i.e if \(\mathfrak p_i\) is the strict transform of \(\mathfrak p\) in \(R_i\), then \(\mathfrak p_i \neq R_i, i\geq 0\)). We say that \(\mathfrak p\) is maximal for \((R_i)\) if for every non-negative integer \(j\geq 0\) and for every prime ideal \(\mathfrak q_j\) of \(R_j\) such that \((R_i)\) is a quadratic sequence along \(\mathfrak q_j\) with \(\mathfrak p_j \subset \mathfrak q_j\), we have \(\mathfrak p_j = \mathfrak q_j\). We show that \(\mathfrak p\) is maximal for \((R_i)\) if and only if \(V=\cup _{i\geq 0}R_i/\mathfrak p_i\) is a valuation ring of dimension one. In this case, the equimultiple locus at \(\mathfrak p\) is the set of elements of the maximal ideal of \(R\) for which the multiplicity is stable along the sequence \((R_i)\), provided that the series of real numbers given by the multiplicity sequence associated with \(V\) diverges. Furthermore, if we consider an ideal \(J\) of \(R\), we also show that Spec\((R/J)\) is normally flat along Spec\((R/\mathfrak p)\) at the closed point if and only if the Hironaka's character \(\nu ^{*}(J,R)\) is stable along the sequence \((R_i)\). This generalizes well known results for the case where \(\mathfrak p\) has height one [see \textit{B.M. Bennett}, Ann. Math.
