Abstract
We give criteria for the Cohen-Macaulay and Gorenstein property of Rees algebras of height 2 non-singular equimultiple prime ideals in terms of explicite representations of the associated graded rings. As consequences, we show that in general, the Cohen-Macaulay resp. Gorenstein property of such Rees algebras does not imply the Cohen-Macaulay resp. Gorenstein property of the base ring and that these properties depend upon the characteristic.
