Log canonical threshold and Segre classes of monomial schemes (Q487152): Difference between revisions

The paper under review studies the Segre classes of subschemes of projective space defined by monomial ideals. The Segre class is shown to be computable by a formula involving the log canonical thresholds of certain extensions of the ideal. The author poses the question to what extent his result might hold for non-monomial schemes. The proof relies on a result of \textit{J. A. Howald} describing the multiplier ideal of a monomial ideal [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 353, No. 7, 2665--2671 (2001; Zbl 0979.13026)] and a more recent result of the author [``Segre classes as integrals over polytopes'', to appear in J. Eur. Math. Soc., \url{arXiv:1307.0830}].
