Abstract
Let R be a homogeneous Cohen-Macaulay algebra over a field, and let I be an ideal generated by a homogeneous weak d-sequence. We show, under reasonable conditions on the sequence, that the graded ring gr(M)R[lt ] of the Rees algebra R[It] = X(i greater than or equal to 0) I-i is C ohen-Macaulay. In particular we obtain the Cohen-Macaulayness of the b low-up ring R[It].
