Integrally closed ideals with $e_{2}(I)=e_{1}(I)-e_{0}(I)+\lambda(A/I)$

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d.$ We introduce and study the notion of the generalized type of $A$ with respect to an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal $I$ denoted by $\operatorname{type}_I(A).$ Let $e_i(I)$ denote $i$th Hilbert coefficients of $A$ w.r.t. $I$. Assuming $I$ is integrally closed and $e_{2}(I)=e_{1}(I)-e_{0}(I)+\lambda(A/I) \neq 0$, we establish a sharp lower bound for $\operatorname{type}_I(A)$ in terms of the multiplicity and certain lengths associated to $I.$ We further show that when this lower bound is attained, the associated graded ring $G(I)$, is Cohen Macaulay. In the case of Buchsbaum local rings of dimension $d$ and depth at least $d-1$, we obtain an optimal lower bound for $e_{2}(\mathfrak{m})$ using the technique of $S_{2}$-fication. Additionally, for an integrally closed $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal $I,$ we also study the second extremal case $e_{2}(I)=e_{1}(I)-e_{0}(I)+\lambda(A/I)+1$ and its consequences on $G(I).$ We also investigate bounds on $e_3(I)$ and for $d=3,$ we study the consequences when these bounds are attained for.

Bounds on the second Hilbert coefficient and the depth of the associated graded ring

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a Noetherian local ring of dimension $d \geq 1$ with $\mathrm{depth} R \geq d-1,$ and let $I$ be an $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal. In this paper, we study bounds on the second Hilbert coefficient of $I$, denoted by $e_{2}(I)$. Under the assumption that the associated graded ring $G(I)$ has depth at least $d-1,$ we first establish a lower bound for $e_{2}(I).$ We then extend several known results from the Cohen-Macaulay case to this general setting and obtain upper bounds for $e_{2}(I)$ in terms of the sectional genus denoted by $\mathrm{g}_{s}(I)$ and the Hilbert coefficients of $I$ and those of a minimal reduction $Q$ of $I$. We further analyze the extremal case when $e_{2}(I)$ attains this bound and relate it to the depth of $G(I)$. In addition, for Buchsbaum local rings, we establish a sharp upper bound for $e_{2}(\mathfrak m)$ using the technique of $S_{2}$-fication. Finally, in the Cohen-Macaulay case, we give sufficient conditions to ensure good properties on the depth of $G(I)$ and of $G(I^n)$ under the assumption that $e_{2}(I)=0$.

Bounds on the Ratliff-Rush Index and the Castelnuovo-Mumford Regularity

Let $(R, \mathfrak m)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d \geq 2,$ and $I$ an $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal of $R.$ Denote $r_{J}(I)$ as the reduction number of $I$ with respect to a minimal reduction $J$ of $I,$ and $\rho(I)$ as the Ratliff-Rush index of $I$. We establish upper bounds on $\rho(I)$ in terms of Hilbert coefficients $e_{i}(I)$ for $0 \leq i \leq d+1,$ and $r_{J}(I).$ Suppose $\widetilde{I^{r_{J}(I)}} \neq I^{r_{J}(I)}.$ We prove that $\rho(I) \leq r_{J}(I)-1+(-1)^{d+1}(e_{d+1}(I)-\widetilde{e}_{d+1}(I)).$ When $d=2,$ we prove that $\rho(I) \leq r_{J}(I) -1 +(e_{2}(I)-1)e_{2}(I)-e_{3}(I).$ This established bound on $\rho(I)$ consequently leads to a bound on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the associated graded ring of $I.$ We also determine bound on $\rho(I)$ in two-dimensional Buchsbaum rings with positive depth.

A note on Ratliff-Rush filtration, reduction number and postulation number of $\mathfrak m$-primary ideals

Let $(R,\mathfrak m)$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d\geq 2$ and $I$ an $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal. Let rd$(I)$ be the reduction number of $I$ and n$(I)$ the postulation number. We prove that for $d=2,$ if n$(I)=\rho(I)-1,$ then rd$(I) \leq$n$(I)+2$ and if n$(I)\neq \rho(I)-1,$ then rd$(I)\geq$n$(I)+2.$ For $d \geq 3$, if $I$ is integrally closed, depth gr$(I) = d-2$ and n$(I)=-(d-3).$ Then we prove that rd$(I)\geq$n$(I)+d$. Our main result is to generalize a result of T. Marley on the relation between the Hilbert-Samuel function and the Hilbert-Samuel polynomial by relaxing the condition on the depth of the associated graded ring with the good behaviour of the Ratliff-Rush filtration with respect to $I$ mod a superficial element. From this result, it follows that for a Cohen-Macaulay ring of dimension $d\geq2$, if $P_{I}(k)=H_{I}(k)$ for some $k \geq \rho(I)$, then $P_{I}(n)=H_{I}(n)$ for all $n \geq k.$

Multi-wavelength temporal and spectral analysis of Blazar S5 1803+78

Blazars are a class of AGN, one of their jets is pointed towards the earth. Here, we report about the multi-wavelength study for blazar S5 1803+78 between MJD 58727 to MJD 59419. We analysed $γ$-ray data collected by Fermi-LAT, X-ray data collected by Swift-XRT \& NuSTAR, optical photons detected by Swift-UVOT \& TUBITAK observatory in Turkey. Three flaring states are identified by analysing the $γ$-ray light curve. A day scale variability is observed throughout the flares with the similar rise and decay times suggesting a compact emission region located close to the central engine. Cross-correlation studies are carried out between $γ$-ray, radio, and X-ray bands, and no significant correlation is detected. The $γ$-ray and optical emission are significantly correlated with zero time lag suggesting a co-spatial origin of them. A significant positive correlation between the R-I index and the V magnitude is observed. The broadband spectral energy distributions (SEDs) modeling was performed for all the flaring episodes as well as for one quiescent state for comparison. SEDs are best fitted with the synchrotron-self Compton (SSC) model under a one-zone leptonic scenario. The SED modeling shows that to explain the high flaring state strong Doppler boosting is required.

ML-Quest: A Game for Introducing Machine Learning Concepts to K-12 Students

Today, Machine Learning (ML) is of a great importance to society due to the availability of huge data and high computational resources. This ultimately led to the introduction of ML concepts at multiple levels of education including K-12 students to promote computational thinking. However, teaching these concepts to K-12 through traditional methodologies such as video lectures and books is challenging. Many studies in the literature have reported that using interactive environments such as games to teach computational thinking and programming improves retention capacity and motivation among students. Therefore, introducing ML concepts using a game might enhance students' understanding of the subject and motivate them to learn further. However, we are not aware of any existing game which explicitly focuses on introducing ML concepts to students using game play. Hence, in this paper, we propose ML-Quest, a 3D video game to provide conceptual overview of three ML concepts: Supervised Learning, Gradient Descent and K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN) Classification. The crux of the game is to introduce the definition and working of these concepts, which we call conceptual overview, in a simulated scenario without overwhelming students with the intricacies of ML. The game has been predominantly evaluated for its usefulness and player experience using the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) model with the help of 23 higher-secondary school students. The survey result shows that around 70% of the participants either agree or strongly agree that the ML-Quest is quite interactive and useful in introducing them to ML concepts.
