Abstract
Let be a field and be the polynomial ring in variables over . Assume that is a squarefree monomial ideal of . For every integer , we denote the -th squarefree power of by . The normalized depth function of is defined as , where denotes the minimum degree of monomials belonging to . Erey, Herzog, Hibi and Saeedi Madani conjectured that for any squarefree monomial ideal , the function is nonincreasing. In this short note, we provide a counterexample for this conjecture. Our example in fact shows that can be arbitrarily large.
