Blowup algebras of determinantal ideals in prime characteristic

Alessandro De Stefani, Jonathan Montaño, Luis Núñez-Betancourt

We study when blowup algebras are -split or strongly -regular. Our main focus is on algebras given by symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals of minors of a generic matrix, a…
