Vanishing of the first big Cohen–Macaulay Hilbert coefficient and BCM-rationality
Let be a Noetherian local ring such that its completion is reduced and satisfies Serre's condition. Let be a balanced big Cohen–Macaulay -algebra satisfying the condition in the source. For a parameter ideal , let denote the first Hilbert coefficient associated to , and let be -rational when it is Cohen–Macaulay and the natural map is injective, where . Vanishing conjecture for the first big Cohen–Macaulay Hilbert coefficient. If for some parameter ideal , then is -rational. In particular, if is excellent of characteristic , its completion is reduced and satisfies , and for some parameter ideal , then is -rational. This conjecture extends Huneke's question beyond the Cohen–Macaulay setting and to all characteristics; the stated condition on is referenced in the source but not defined in the supplied text, and the resolution status is not established here.
