Squarefree monomial ideals arising from finite meet-semilattices and their free resolutions are studied. For the squarefree monomial ideals corresponding to poset ideals in a distributive lattice the Alexander dual is computed.
Alexander duality has, in the past, made its way into commutative algebra through Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial complexes. This has the disadvantage that one is limited to squarefree monomial ideals. The notion of Alexander duality is…
Given a simplicial complex we associate to it a squarefree monomial ideal which we call the face ideal of the simplicial complex, and show that it has linear quotients. It turns out that its Alexander dual is a whisker complex. We apply…
The free resolution and the Alexander dual of squarefree monomial ideals associated with certain subsets of distributive lattices are studied.
A "squarefree module" over a polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, .., x_n]$ is a generalization of a Stanley-Reisner ring, and allows us to apply homological methods to the study of monomial ideals systematically. Let $Sq$ be the category of…
A certain squarefree monomial ideal $H_P$ arising from a finite partially ordered set $P$ will be studied from viewpoints of both commutative algebra and combinatorics. First, it is proved that the defining ideal of the Rees algebra of…
Let $S = \mathbb{K}[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper we present a criterion for componentwise linearity of powers of monomial ideals. In particular, we prove that if a square-free monomial…
The class of equidimensional polymatroidal ideals are studied. In particular, we show that an unmixed polymatroidal ideal is connected in codimension one if and only if it is Cohen-Macaulay. Especially a matroidal ideal is connected in…
In this paper, we study a class $\mathcal{C}$ of squarefree monomial ideals $I\subseteq R=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$, defined by the condition that $\dim R/I$ equals the maximum degree of the minimal generators of…
We prove a sharp bound for the regularity of a squarefree monomial ideal with a linear presentation. This result also answers in positive a question on the cohomological dimension of squarefree monomial ideals satisfying Serre's…
Let $I\subseteq S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be a homogeneous ideal equipped with a monomial order $<$. We show that if $\operatorname{in}_<(I)$ is a square-free monomial ideal, then $S/I$ and $S/\operatorname{in}_<(I)$ have the same connectedness…
To a simplicial complex, we associate a square-free monomial ideal in the polynomial ring generated by its vertex set over a field. We study algebraic properties of this ideal via combinatorial properties of the simplicial complex. By…
For a pair $(P,Q)$ of finite posets the generators of the ideal $L(P,Q)$ correspond bijectively to the isotone maps from $P$ to $Q$. In this note we determine all pairs $(P,Q)$ for which the Alexander dual of $L(P,Q)$ coincides with…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ be a field and $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over the field $\mathbb{K}$. Suppose that $\mathcal{C}$ is a chordal clutter with $n$ vertices and assume that the minimum edge…
We apply Miller's theory on multigraded modules over a polynomial ring to the study of the Stanley depth of these modules. Several tools for Stanley's conjecture are developed, and a few partial answers are given. For example, we show that…
Given two finite sequences of positive integers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we associate a square free monomial ideal $I_{\alpha,\beta}$ in a ring of polynomials $S$, and we recursively compute the algebraic invariants of $S/I_{\alpha,\beta}$.…
Monomial ideals which are generic with respect to either their generators or irreducible components have minimal free resolutions derived from simplicial complexes. For a generic monomial ideal, the associated primes satisfy a saturated…
We introduce sequentially $S_r$ modules over a commutative graded ring and sequentially $S_r$ simplicial complexes. This generalizes two properties for modules and simplicial complexes: being sequentially Cohen-Macaulay, and satisfying…
We study monomial ideals with linear presentation or partially linear resolution. We give combinatorial characterizations of linear presentation for square-free ideals of degree 3, and for primary ideals whose resolutions are linear except…
In this paper, basic properties of monomial difference ideals are studied. We prove the finitely generated property of well-mixed difference ideals generated by monomials. Furthermore, a finite prime decomposition of radical well-mixed…
