This paper was motivated by a problem left by Herzog and Hibi, namely to classify all unmixed polymatroidal ideals. In the particular case of polymatroidal ideals corresponding to discrete polymatroids of Veronese type, i.e ideals of…
Motivated by the fact that as the number of generators of an ideal grows so does the complexity of calculating relations among the generators, this paper identifies collections of monomial ideals with a growing number of generators which…
We classify Cohen-Macaulay graphs of girth at least $5$ and planar Gorenstein graphs of girth at least $4$. Moreover, such graphs are also vertex decomposable.
We compute the minimal primary decomposition for completely squarefree lexsegment ideals. We show that critical squarefree monomial ideals are sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. As an application, we give a complete characterization of the…
Addressing a question of M. Stillman, it had been shown by Ein, Eisenbud, and the author that in a projective space of dimension at most 5, every arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay curve which is cut out by quadrics scheme- theoretically also…
If C is a clutter with n vertices and q edges whose clutter matrix has column vectors V={v1,...,vq}, we call C an Ehrhart clutter if {(v1,1),...,(vq,1)} is a Hilbert basis. Letting A(P) be the Ehrhart ring of P=conv(V), we are able to show…
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on a vertex set $V(G)=\{x_{11}, \ldots, x_{n1}\}$. Also let $m_1, \ldots,m_n \geq 2$ be integers and $G_1, \ldots, G_n$ be connected simple graphs on the vertex sets $V(G_i)=\{x_{i1}, \ldots, x_{im_i}\}$. In…
Take a prime power $q$, an integer $n\geq 2$, and a coordinate subspace $S\subseteq GF(q)^n$ over the Galois field $GF(q)$. One can associate with $S$ an $n$-partite $n$-uniform clutter $\mathcal{C}$, where every part has size $q$ and there…
In this paper we discuss the problem of characterizing the Cohen-Macaulay property of certain families of monomial ideals with fixed radical. More precisely, we consider generically complete intersection monomial ideals whose radical…
In analogy to the skeletons of a simplicial complex and their Stanley--Reisner ideals we introduce the skeletons of an arbitrary monomial ideal $I\subset S=K[x_1,...,x_n]$. This allows us to compute the depth of $S/I$ in terms of its…
In this paper, we study Cstelnuovo-Mumford regularity of square-free monomial ideals generated in degree 3. We define some operations on the clutters associated to such ideals and prove that the regularity is conserved under these…
We give a new combinatorial characterization of the big height of a squarefree monomial ideal leading to a new bound for the projective dimension of a monomial ideal.
An affine oriented matroid is a combinatorial abstraction of an affine hyperplane arrangement. From it, Novik, Postnikov and Sturmfels constructed a squarefree monomial ideal in a polynomial ring, called an oriented matroid ideal, and got…
We prove a reformulation of the multiplicity upper bound conjecture and use that reformulation to prove it for three-dimensional simplicial complexes and homology manifolds with many vertices. We provide necessary conditions for a…
A clutter is \emph{clean} if it has no delta or the blocker of an extended odd hole minor, and it is \emph{tangled} if its covering number is two and every element appears in a minimum cover. Clean tangled clutters have been instrumental in…
We introduce the use of liaison addition to the study of hyperplane arrangements. For an arrangement, $\mathcal A$, of hyperplanes in $\mathbb P^n$, $\mathcal A$ is free if $R/J$ is Cohen-Macaulay, where $J$ is the Jacobian ideal of…
In the present paper, we aim to classify monomial ideals whose all matching powers are Cohen-Macaulay. We especially focus our attention on edge ideals. The Cohen-Macaulayness of the last matching power of an edge ideal is characterized,…
When a monomial ideal has linear quotients with respect to an admissible order of increasing support-degree, we provide two proofs of different flavors to show that it is componentwise support-linear. We also introduce the variable…
This work introduces a notion of complexes of maximal depth, and maximal Cohen-Macaulay complexes, over a commutative noetherian local ring. The existence of such complexes is closely tied to the Hochster's ``homological conjectures", most…
In this paper, we provide a complete description of the minimal primes of ideals generated by adjacent $2$-minors, in terms of the so-called admissible sets and associated lattice ideals. We prove that for these ideals, the properties of…
