Abstract

Given an ideal II we investigate the decompositions of Betti diagrams of the graded family of ideals {Ik}k\{I^k \}_k formed by taking powers of II. We prove conjectures of Engstr\"om and show that there is a stabilization in the Boij-S\"oderberg decompositions of IkI^k for k>>0k>>0 when II is a homogeneous ideal with generators in a single degree. In particular, the number of terms in the decompositions with positive coefficients remains constant for k>>0k>>0, the pure diagrams appearing in each decomposition have the same shape, and the coefficients of these diagrams are given by polynomials in kk. We also show that a similar result holds for decompositions with arbitrary coefficients arising from other chains of pure diagrams.
