Let (R, m) be a^/-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay (CM for short) local ring with maximal ideal m. If/is an m-primary ideal, we set//,(«)= X (R/P)(here A () denotes length) with the convention that P= R for n^ 0. We call H,(n) the Hilbert function of/. Samuel proved that there exists a polynomial P,(n) of the form fn+ d-1\ fn+ d-2 e\d)-«•(d-\such that P,{n)= H,(n) for n> 0. We call P,(ri) the Hilbert polynomial of/and the integers eo,..., ed(sometimes written eo (I),..., ed (I)) are called the Hilbert coefficients of/. The first coefficient, e0, is called the multiplicity of/and has been studied extensively. But not much is known about the significance of the other coefficients. See [1, 4, 5, 13], however.
