Abstract

Let Jn,m=(x1xm,x2xm+1,,xnx1xm1)J_{n,m} = (x_1\cdots x_{m},x_2 \cdots x_{m+1},\ldots,x_{n}x_1\cdots x_{m-1}) be the mm-path ideal of a cycle of length n5n \ge 5 over a polynomial ring S=k[x1,,xn]S = k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]. Let t1t\geq 1 be an integer. We show that Jn,mtJ_{n,m}^t has a linear free resolution and give a precise formula for all of its Betti numbers when m=n1,n2m = n-1, n-2.
