Binomial edge ideals of cographs

Abstract

We determine the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of binomial edge ideals of complement reducible graphs (cographs). For cographs with nn vertices the maximum regularity grows as 2n/32n/3. We also bound the regularity by graph theoretic invariants and construct a family of counterexamples to a conjecture of Hibi and Matsuda.
