On the lifting problem for homogeneous ideals in polynomial rings

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We prove here that if k is a field of zero characteristic, then any homogenous ideal in k[X, Y] is liftable to a radical ideal. On the other hand, if k is a finite field, then for any n ≥ 2, there exist zero-dimensional monomial ideals in k[X1,...,Xn] which are not liftable to radical ideals.
