Quasi-Gorensteinness of extended Rees algebras
arXiv:1309.4019
Abstract
Let be a Noetherian local ring and an -ideal. It is well-known that if the associated graded ring $\gr_I(R)$ is Cohen-Macaulay (Gorenstein), then so is , but the converse is not true in general. In this paper we investigate the Cohen-Macaulayness and Gorensteinness of the associated graded ring $\gr_I(R)$ under the hypothesis of the extended Rees algebra is quasi-Gorenstein or the associated graded ring $\gr_I(R)$ is a domain.
