Abstract:

Let $(R,m)$ be a 2-dimensional rational singularity with algebraically closed residue field and for which the associated graded ring is an integrally closed domain. We use the work of Göhner on condition $(N)$ and the theory of degree functions developed by Rees and Sharp to give a very short and elementary proof of a formula for the (mixed) multiplicity of complete $m$-primary ideals in $(R,m)$.
