The Uniform Symbolic Topology Property for Diagonally $F$-regular Algebras

Let $k$ be a field of positive characteristic. Building on the work of the second named author, we define a new class of $k$-algebras, called diagonally $F$-regular algebras, for which the so-called Uniform Symbolic Topology Property (USTP) holds effectively. We show that this class contains all essentially smooth $k$-algebras. We also show that this class contains certain singular algebras, such as the affine cone over $\mathbb{P}^r_{k} \times \mathbb{P}^s_{k}$, when $k$ is perfect. By reduction to positive characteristic, it follows that USTP holds effectively for the affine cone over $\mathbb{P}^r_{\mathbb{C}} \times \mathbb{P}^s_{\mathbb{C}}$ and more generally for complex varieties of diagonal $F$-regular type.
