Abstract: Let V be a smooth scheme over a field k, and let In,ngeq0 be a filtration of sheaves of ideals in caloV, such that I0=caloV, and IscdotItsubsetIs+t. In such case is called a Rees algebra. A Rees algebra is said to be a Diff-algebra if, for any two integers N>n and any differential operator D of order n, D(IN)subsetINn. Any Rees algebra extends to a smallest Diff-algebra. There are two ways to define extensions of Rees algebras, and both are of interest in singularity theory. One is that defined by taking integral closures (in which a Rees algebra is included in its integral closure), and another extension is that defined, as above, in which the algebra is extended to a Diff-algebra. Surprisingly enough, both forms of extension are compatible in a natural way. Namely, there is a compatibility of higher differential operators with integral closure which we explore here under the assumption that V is smooth over a perfect field.
