Abstract: Given an Artinian local ring $R$, we define its Gorenstein colength $g(R)$ to measure how closely we can approximate $R$ by a Gorenstein Artin local ring. In this paper, we show that $R=T/I$ satisfies the inequality $g(R)leqlambda(R/soc(R))$ in the following two cases: (a) $T$ is a power series ring over a field of characteristic zero and $I$ an ideal that is the power of a system of parameters or (b) $T$ is a 2-dimensional regular local ring with infinite residue field and $I$ is primary to the maximal ideal of $T$. In the first case, we compute $g(R)$ by constructing a Gorenstein Artin local ring mapping onto $R$. We further use this construction to show that an ideal that is the $n$th power of a system of parameters is directly linked to the $(n-1)$st power via Gorenstein ideals. A similar method shows that such ideals are also directly linked to themselves via Gorenstein ideals. Keywords: Gorenstein colength; Gorenstein linkage.
