Associated Primes of the Example of Brenner and Monsky

Recently, Brenner and Monsky found an example of an ideal in a hypersurface ring whose tight closure does not commute with localization, thus answered the localization problem in tight closure theory in the negative. In this article, we use Monsky's calculations to analyze the set of associated primes of the Frobenius powers of this ideal and show that this set is infinite.
