Abstract:

Let $R$ be the polynomial ring $k[X,Y,Z]$ localized at the maximal ideal $M = (X,Y,Z)$. We construct a prime ideal $P$ in $R$ which is equal to the ideal of $m$ generic lines through the origin modulo ${M^m}$, and we show that, for suitable choice of $m$, the symbolic blow-up of such an ideal $P$ is not Noetherian.
