Higher Nash Blowups of $A_3$-Singularity
We show that the $ n $-th Nash blowup of the toric surface singularity of type $ A_3 $ is singular for any $ n > 0 $. It was known that the normalization of the $ n $-th Nash blowup of a toric variety is also a toric variety associated to the Gröbner fan of a certain ideal $ J_n $. In our case, we prove that the Gröbner fan contains a non-regular cone. We determine minimal generators of the initial ideal of $ J_n $ with respect to a certain monomial ordering, and show that the reduced Gröbner basis of $ J_n $ has polynomials of certain forms for each $ n $.
