A Buchsbaum theory for tight closure

Abstract: A Noetherian local ring

(R, m a t h f r a k m)

is called Buchsbaum if the difference

e (m a t h f r a k q, R) - e l l (R / m a t h f r a k q)

, where

m a t h f r a k q

is an ideal generated by a system of parameters, is a constant independent of

m a t h f r a k q

. In this article, we study the tight closure analog of this condition. We prove that in an unmixed excellent local ring

(R, m a t h f r a k m)

of prime characteristic

p > 0

and dimension at least one, the difference

e (m a t h f r a k q, R) - e l l (R / m a t h f r a k q^{*})

is independent of

m a t h f r a k q

if and only if the parameter test ideal

a u_{e x t p a r} (R)

contains

m a t h f r a k m

. We also provide a characterization of this condition via derived category which is analogous to Schenzel's criterion for Buchsbaum rings.
