In a two-dimensional regular local ring (R, m), it is known that there
exists a unique complete ideal I adjacent to a given simple complete
m-primary ideal J from above. In this paper it is shown that there are
infinitely many simple complete m-primary ideals adjacent to a given
simple complete m-primary ideal J (not equal m) from below whose order
s are the same as that of J and that there exists a unique complete m-
primary ideal adjacent to J from below whose order is one bigger than
that of J. We also show that these are all the complete ideals adjacen
t to J from below. It is known that there is a unique prime divisor w
and a unique infinitely near point S of R associated to a given simple
complete m-primary ideal J. As a corollary of the main theorem, we ob
tain one-to-one correspondences between the set of simple m-primary co
mplete ideals adjacent to J from below, the set of first neighborhood
prime divisors of w, and the set of first quadratic transformations of
S.
