Edge ideals of squares of trees

Commutative Algebra 2020-04-01 v2 Combinatorics

Abstract

We describe all the trees with the property that the corresponding edge ideal of the square of the tree has a linear resolution. As a consequence, we give a complete characterization of those trees TT for which the square is co-chordal, that is the complement of the square, (T2)c(T^2)^c, is a chordal graph. For particular classes of trees such as paths and double brooms we determine the Krull dimension and the projective dimension.
