BCM-thresholds of non-principal ideals (2501.16773v2)

Abstract: Generalizing previous work of the first author, we introduce and study a characteristic free analog of the $F$-threshold for non-principal ideals. We show that this coincides with the classical $F$-threshold for weakly $F$-regular rings and that the set of $F$-thresholds coincides with the set of $F$-jumping numbers in a regular ring. We obtain results on $F$-thresholds of parameter ideals analogous to results of Huneke-Musta{\c{t}}{\u{a}}-Takagi-Watanabe. Instead of taking ordinary powers of ideal, our definition uses fractional integral closure in an absolute integral closure of our ambient ring.
