Let (R,\mathfrak m) be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension d≥ 2 and I an \mathfrak m-primary ideal. Let rd(I) be the reduction number of I and n(I) the postulation number. We prove that for d=2, if n(I)=ρ(I)-1, then rd(I) ≤n(I)+2 and if n(I)≠ ρ(I)-1, then rd(I)≥n(I)+2. For d ≥ 3, if I is integrally closed, depth gr(I) = d-2 and n(I)=-(d-3). Then we prove that rd(I)≥n(I)+d. Our main result is to generalize a result of T. Marley on the relation between the Hilbert-Samuel function and the Hilbert-Samuel polynomial by relaxing the condition on the depth of the associated graded ring with the good behaviour of the Ratliff-Rush filtration with respect to I mod a superficial element. From this result, it follows that for a Cohen-Macaulay ring of dimension d≥2, if PI(k)=HI(k) for some k ≥ ρ(I), then PI(n)=HI(n) for all n ≥ k.
