Abstract

Let R be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension d, multiplicity e and embedding dimension v. Abhyankar [1] showed that v − d + 1 ≤ e. When equality holds, R is said to have minimal multiplicity. The purpose of this paper is to study the preservation of this property under the formation of Rees algebras of several ideals in a 2-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay (CM for short) local ring. Our main tool is the theory of joint reductions and mixed multiplicities developed by Rees [9] and Teissier[12].
