Segre classes and integral dependence

Mathematics > Algebraic Geometry [Submitted on 9 Dec 2025 (v1), last revised 18 Jun 2026 (this version, v2)] Title:Segre classes and integral dependence View PDF HTML (experimental)Abstract:A fundamental property of Segre classes is their birational invariance. This invariance implies that the Segre class of a closed subscheme only depends on the integral closure of the defining ideal sheaf. In this paper, we show that, conversely, the Segre class of a closed subscheme encodes an integral dependence criterion for its defining ideal sheaf. As an application, we prove that Aluffi's Segre zeta function provides an integral dependence criterion for homogeneous ideals in polynomial rings.
