Algebro-geometric properties of saturated rings (Q913876): Difference between revisions

Let (\({\mathfrak O},m,k)\) be a complete one-dimensional reduced local ring of equicharacteristic zero. It is known that the Zariski saturation \(\tilde{\mathfrak O}^ Z\) [\textit{O. Zariski}, Am. J. Math. 90, 961-1023 (1968; Zbl 0189.214)] and the Campillo saturation \(\tilde{\mathfrak O}^ C\) [\textit{A. Campillo} in Singularities, Summer Inst., Arcata/Calif. 1981, Proc. Symp. Pure Math. 40, Part 1, 211-220 (1983; Zbl 0553.14013)] of \({\mathfrak O}\) agree when k is algebraically closed. Furthermore, in this case, knowledge of either saturation of \({\mathfrak O}\) is equivalent to knowledge of the equisingularity class of a generic plane projection of Spec(\({\mathfrak O})\). The present paper considers the case where k is not algebraically closed. In this case the two saturations differ. Indeed, if \(\bar k\) is the algebraic closure of k and \(k\subseteq {\mathfrak O}\) is any coefficient field for \({\mathfrak O}\), then \(\tilde{\mathfrak O}^ C\) determines the equisingularity class of the generic plane projection of the curve Spec(\({\mathfrak O}{\hat \otimes}_ k\bar k)\); whereas \(\tilde{\mathfrak O}^ Z\) doesn't.
