Asymptotic Growth of Associated Primes of Certain Graph Ideals

Abstract

We specify a class of graphs, HtH_t, and characterize the irreducible decomposition of all powers of the cover ideals. This gives insight into the structure and stabilization of the corresponding associated primes; specifically, providing an answer to the question "For each integer t0t\geq 0, does there exist a (hyper) graph HtH_t such that stabilization of associated primes occurs at s(χ(Ht)1)+ts\geq (\chi(H_t)-1)+t?" asked by Francisco, H\`a, and Van Tuyl. For each tt, HtH_t has chromatic number 3 and associated primes that stabilize at s=2+ts=2+t.
