%0 Journal Article %T Bounding symbolic powers via asymptotic multiplier ideals %A Zach Teitler %J Annales Universitatis Paedagogicae Cracoviensis. Studia Mathematica %D 2009 %I Krak¨®w : Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Pedagogicznego %X We revisit a bound on symbolic powers found by Ein-Lazarsfeld-Smith and subsequently improved by Takagi-Yoshida. We show that the original argument of [6] actually gives the same improvement. On the other hand, we show by examples that any further improvement based on the same technique appears unlikely. This is primarily an exposition; only some examples and remarks might be new. %U http://studmath.up.krakow.pl/index.php/studmath/article/view/91
