Abstract

The Jordan type PA,P_{A,\ell} of a linear form \ell acting on a graded Artinian algebra AA over a field k\sf k is the partition describing the Jordan block decomposition of the multiplication map mm_\ell, which is nilpotent. The Jordan degree type SA,\mathcal S_{A,\ell} is a finer invariant, describing also the initial degrees of the simple submodules of AA in a decomposition of AA as k[]{\sf k}[\ell]-modules. The set of Jordan types of AA or Jordan degree types (JDT) of AA as \ell varies, is an invariant of the algebra. This invariant has been studied for codimension two graded algebras. We here extend the previous results to certain codimension three graded Artinian Gorenstein (AG) algebras - those of small Sperner number. Given a Gorenstein sequence TT - one possible for the Hilbert function of a codimension three AG algebra - the irreducible variety Gor(T)\mathrm{Gor}(T) parametrizes all Gorenstein algebras of Hilbert function TT. We here completely determine the JDT possible for all pairs (A,),AGor(T)(A,\ell), A\in \mathrm{Gor}(T), for Gorenstein sequences TT of the form T=(1,3,sk,3,1)T=(1,3,s^k,3,1) for Sperner number s=3,4,5s=3,4,5 and arbitrary multiplicity kk. For s=6s=6 we delimit the prospective JDT, without verifying that each occurs.
