Rational singularities, \(\omega\)-multiplier ideals, and cores of ideals (Q2363555)

The author defines the \(\omega\)-multiplier ideals on a normal variety and use it to study rational singularities. One main result is a characterization of rational singularity via cores of ideals. The author also investigate this \(\omega\)-multiplier ideals in details for two-dimensional singularities: such as some formulas relating the \(\omega\)-multiplier ideal, the core of ideal, and the multiplicity, and a subadditivity formula. It is also proved that in a two-dimensional normal local ring, every integrally closed ideal is an \(\omega\)-multiplier ideal.
