Abstract: The acquisition of the defining equations of Rees algebras is a natural way to study these algebras and allows certain invariants and properties to be deduced. In this paper, we consider Rees algebras of codimension 2 perfect ideals of hypersurface rings and produce a minimal generating set for their defining ideals. Then, using generic Bourbaki ideals, we study Rees algebras of modules with projective dimension one over hypersurface rings. We describe the defining ideal of such algebras and determine Cohen-Macaulayness and other invariants.


Much work has been done identifying the generators of Rees algebras of ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. This paper is the first paper to investigate the generators of Rees algebras of ideals in a hypersurface ring. Of course, some of the ideas from the polynomial ring problem apply in the hypersurface problem; but nearly all of them need to be adapted and modified to work in the new setting! This paper carefully describes each procedure; explains why it needs to be modified; and then describes the modification. Often, two methods are given for each modification. The first five sections deal with the Rees algebra calculations for perfect, grade 2, linearly presented ideals of second analytic deviation one. The final section applies the earlier work to Rees algebras of modules of projective dimension one. The two topics are connected by way of generic Bourbaki ideals.
