On the Frobenius closure of parameter ideals when the ring is F-injective on the punctured spectrum

Abstract

Let $(R,\frak m)$ be an excellent generalized Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$ that is $F$-injective on the punctured spectrum. Let $\frak q$ be a standard parameter ideal of $R$. The aim of the paper is to prove that $$\ell_R({\frak q}^F/{\frak q})\leq \sum\limits_{i=0}^{d}\binom{d}{i}\ell_R(0^F_{H^i_{\frak m}(R)}).$$ Moreover, if $\frak q$ is contained in a large enough power of $\frak m$, we have $${\frak q}^F/{\frak q} \cong \bigoplus_{i=0}^d (0^F_{H^i_{\frak m}(R)})^{\binom{d}{i}}.$$
