Generalized Hilbert-Kunz Multiplicity for Families of Ideals

Abstract: In this paper, we initiate a systematic study of the generalized Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity for families of ideals in a Noetherian local ring (R,m) of positive characteristic, and introduce a new asymptotic invariant called the Amao-type multiplicity. We establish that, for a p-family of ideals, the generalized Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity arises as the limit of Amao-type multiplicities.
