Differential Powers and Differential Closure of Ideals

Abstract:

I will begin by defining the notion of the differential power of an ideal. Focusing on polynomial rings in two or three variables over a field of characteristic zero, I will discuss when the differential power of an ideal becomes principal. I will use differential powers to define the differential closure of an ideal and discuss how it relates to the radical of an ideal.
