Intersection Theorems

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Mathematical Sciences Research Institute Publications ((MSRI,volume 15))

Abstract

The “intersections” referred to in the title of this paper are intersections of the kind which came into Commutative Algebra from Intersection Theory in Algebraic Geometry, and the “theorems” are descendants of the Intersection Theorem of Peskine and Szpiro [15,16]. There are other kinds of theorems which go under this name, notably Krull’s Intersection Theorem on the intersection of the powers of an ideal; we will not be discussing these here.
