Hilbert-Kunz density function for graded domains


Abstract in English

We prove the existence of HK density function for a pair $(R, I)$, where $R$ is a ${mathbb N}$-graded domain of finite type over a perfect field and $Isubset R$ is a graded ideal of finite colength. This generalizes our earlier result where one proves the existence of such a function for a pair $(R, I)$, where, in addition $R$ is standard graded. As one of the consequences we show that if $G$ is a finite group scheme acting linearly on a polynomial ring $R$ of dimension $d$ then the HK density function $f_{R^G, {bf m}_G}$, of the pair $(R^G, {bf m}_G)$, is a piecewise polynomial function of degree $d-1$. We also compute the HK density functions for $(R^G, {bf m}_G)$, where $Gsubset SL_2(k)$ is a finite group acting linearly on the ring $k[X, Y]$.
