F-signature of pairs: Continuity, p-fractals and minimal log discrepancies

2011

This paper contains a number of observations on the {$F$-signature} of triples $(R,\Delta,\ba^t)$ introduced in our previous joint work. We first show that the $F$-signature $s(R,\Delta,\ba^t)$ is continuous as a function of $t$, and for principal ideals $\ba$ even convex. We then further deduce, for fixed $t$, that the $F$-signature is lower semi-continuous as a function on $\Spec R$ when $R$ is regular and $\ba$ is principal. We also point out the close relationship of the signature function in this setting to the works of Monsky and Teixeira on Hilbert-Kunz multiplicity and $p$-fractals. Finally, we conclude by showing that the minimal log discrepancy of an arbitrary triple $(R,\Delta,\b…
