A Noetherian local ring ( R , m ) (R,\frak {m}) is called Buchsbaum if the difference ℓ ( R / q ) − e ( q , R ) \ell (R/\mathfrak {q})-e(\mathfrak {q}, R) , where q \mathfrak {q} is an ideal generated by a system of parameters, is a constant independent of q \mathfrak {q} . In this article, we study the tight closure analog of this condition. We prove that in an unmixed excellent local ring ( R , m ) (R,\frak {m}) of prime characteristic p > 0 p>0 and dimension at least one, the difference e ( q , R ) − ℓ ( R / q ∗ ) e(\mathfrak {q}, R)-\ell (R/\mathfrak {q}^*) is independent of q \mathfrak {q} if and only if the parameter test ideal τ p a r ( R ) \tau _{\mathrm {par}}(R) contains m \frak {m} . We also provide a characterization of this condition via derived category which is analogous to Schenzel’s criterion for Buchsbaum rings.more » « less
