Dominating ideals and closed neighborhood ideals of graphs

Commutative Algebra 2022-06-17 v4 Combinatorics

Abstract

We study the closed neighborhood ideals and the dominating ideals of graphs, in particular, of trees and cycles. We prove that the closed neighborhood ideals and the dominating ideals of trees are normally torsion-free. The closed neighborhood ideals and the dominating ideals of cycles fail to be normally torsion-free. However, we prove that the closed neighborhood ideals of cycles admit the (strong) persistence property and the dominating ideals of cycles are nearly normally torsion-free.
