On the uniform bound of the index of reducibility of parameter ideals of a module whose polynomial type is at most one (Q387608)

Let \(M\) be a finitely generated module over a Noetherian local ring \((R,\mathfrak{m})\). Let \(\mathfrak{q}\) be a parameter ideal of \(M\). The number of irreducible components that appear in an irredundant irreducible decomposition of \(\mathfrak{q}M\) is called the index of reducibility of \(\mathfrak{q}\) on \(M\). \textit{S. Goto} and \textit{N. Suzuki} [J. Algebra. 87, 53--88 (1984; Zbl 0538.13003)] proved that if \(M\) is a generalized Cohen-Macaulay \(R\)-module, then the index of reducibility of the parameter ideals on \(M\) have an upper bound. In the paper under review, the author extends the results of Goto and Suzuki [loc. cit.] for the class of modules of the polynomial type at most one. The main theorem shows that if the polynomial type of \(M\) is at most one, then the index of reducibility of the parameter ideals on \(M\) have an upper bound.
