Abstract

Among the several types of closures of an idealI that have been defined and studied in the past decades, the integral closureĪ has a central place being one of the earliest and most relevant. Despite this role, it is often a difficult challenge to describe it concretely once the generators ofI are known. Our aim in this note is to show that in a broad class of ideals their radicals play a fundamental role in testing for integral closedness, and in caseI ≠Ī, ✓I is still helpful in finding some fresh new elements inĪ/I. Among the classes of ideals under consideration are: complete intersection ideals of codimension two, generic complete intersection ideals, and generically Gorenstein ideals.
