We introduce positive Gorenstein ideals. These are Gorenstein ideals in the graded ring $\RR[x]$ with socle in degree 2d, which when viewed as a linear functional on $\RR[x]_{2d}$ is nonnegative on squares. Equivalently, positive Gorenstein…
We compute the Groebner basis of a system of polynomial equations related to the Jacobian conjecture using a recursive formula for the Catalan numbers.
We consider a finite dimensional representation of the dihedral group $D_{2p}$ over a field of characteristic two where $p$ is an odd prime and study the corresponding Hilbert ideal $I_H$. We show that $I_H$ has a universal Gr\" {o}bner…
Relying on the combinatorial classification of toric ideals using their bouquet structure, we focus on toric ideals of hypergraphs and study how they relate to general toric ideals. We show that hypergraphs exhibit a surprisingly general…
Let I be either the ideal of maximal minors or the ideal of 2-minors of a row graded or column graded matrix of linear forms L. In two previous papers we showed that I is a Cartwright-Sturmfels ideal, that is, the multigraded generic…
We consider the problem of determining Gr\"obner bases of binomial ideals associated with linear error correcting codes. Computation of Gr\"obner bases of linear codes have become a topic of interest to many researchers in coding theory…
The construction of joins and secant varieties is studied in the combinatorial context of monomial ideals. For ideals generated by quadratic monomials, the generators of the secant ideals are obstructions to graph colorings, and this leads…
Associated to any vector configuration A is a toric ideal encoded by vectors in the kernel of A. Each toric ideal has two special generating sets: the universal Gr\"obner basis and the Graver basis. While the former is generally a proper…
Let $\chi(x)\in \mathbb{Z}[x]$ be a monic polynomial whose roots are distinct integers. We study the ideal class monoid and the ideal class group of the ring $\mathbb{Z}[x]/(\chi(x))$. We obtain formulas for the orders of these objects, and…
Inspired by recent work in the theory of central projections onto hypersurfaces, we characterize self-linked perfect ideals of grade 2 as those with a Hilbert--Burch matrix that has a maximal symmetric subblock. We also prove that every…
In this paper, we extend the idea of comprehensive Gr\"{o}bner bases given by Weispfenning (1992) to border bases for zero dimensional parametric polynomial ideals. For this, we introduce a notion of comprehensive border bases and border…
Gr\"obner bases are a fundamental tool when studying ideals in multivariate polynomial rings. More recently there has been a growing interest in transferring techniques from the field case to other coefficient rings, most notably Euclidean…
Let $I$ be an ideal of the polynomial ring $A[x]=A[x_1,...,x_n]$ over the commutative, noetherian ring $A$. Geometrically $I$ defines a family of affine schemes over $\Spec(A)$: For $\p\in\Spec(A)$, the fibre over $\p$ is the closed…
In this article we consider the problem of finding generators of the toric ideal associated to a combinatorial object called a staged tree. Our main theorem states that toric ideals of staged trees that are balanced and stratified are…
Let I be a homogeneous ideal of a polynomial ring S. We prove that if the initial ideal J of I, w.r.t. a term order on S, is square-free, then the extremal Betti numbers of S/I and of S/J coincide. In particular, depth(S/I)=depth(S/J) and…
We characterise the class of one-cogenerated Pfaffian ideals whose natural generators form a Gr\"obner basis with respect to any anti-diagonal term-order. We describe their initial ideals as well as the associated simplicial complexes,…
The purpose of this paper is twofold. 1. We give combinatorial bounds on the ranks of the groups $\Tor^{R}_\bullet(k,k)_\bullet$ in the case where $R = k[\Lambda]$ is an affine semi-group ring, and in the process provide combinatorial…
We investigate products J of ideals of "row initial" minors in the polynomial ring K[X] defined by a generic m-by-n matrix. Such ideals are shown to be generated by a certain set of standard bitableaux that we call superstandard. These…
There is a natural infinite graph whose vertices are the monomial ideals in a polynomial ring. The definition involves Gr\"obner bases or the action of an algebraic torus. We present algorithms for computing the (affine schemes…
In [7] we obtained a formula for the Hilbert depth of squarefree Veronese ideals in a standard graded polynomial ring by relating it to the Hilbert depth of powers of the irrelevant maximal ideal. In this paper, we prove that these two…
