Title

Ideals of joint reduction number zero

Abstract

We will present some old and new results on ideals of joint reduction number zero in a Noetherian ring. Complete ideals in two dimensional rational singularities and zero dimensional monomial ideals in polynomial rings are examples of such ideals. A local cohomological characterization of such ideals will be presented. We show how one can compute the Hilbert polynomial of such ideals and how they produce Cohen-Macaulay Rees algebras. We also point out their connection with an unsolved conjecture of Itoh about the normal reduction number of an m-primary ideal in a three dimensional Gorenstein local ring.
