Lengths of Tors Determined by Killing Powers of Ideals in a Local Ring

Given a local ring R and n ideals whose sum is primary to the maximal ideal of R, one may define a function which takes an n-tuple of exponents (a1,…,an) to the length of Tork(R/I1,…,R/In). These functions are shown to have rational generating functions in certain cases.
