Abstract: Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$ with infinite residue field. Let $I$ be an $R$-ideal that has analytic spread $ell(I)=d$, $G_d$ condition and the Artin-Nagata property $A{N}_{d-2}^{-}$. We provide a formula relating the length $lambda(I^{n+1}/J{I}^n)$ to the difference $P_I(n)-H_I(n)$, where $J$ is a general minimal reduction of $I$, $P_I(n)$ and $H_I(n)$ are the generalized Hilbert-Samuel polynomial and the generalized Hilbert-Samuel function in the sense of C. Polini and Y. Xie. We then use it to establish formulas to compute the higher generalized Hilbert coefficients of $I$. As an application, we extend Northcott's inequality to non $mathfrakm$-primary ideals. When equality holds in the generalized Northcott's inequality, the ideal $I$ enjoys nice properties. Indeed, in this case, we prove that the reduction number of $I$ is at most one and the associated graded ring of $I$ is Cohen-Macaulay. We also recover results of G. Colom$acuteme$-Nin, C. Polini, B. Ulrich and Y. Xie on the positivity of the generalized first Hilbert coefficient $j_1(I)$. Our work extends that of S. Huckaba, C. Huneke and A. Ooishi to ideals that are not necessarily $mathfrakm$-primary.
