There are two seemingly unrelated ideals associated with a simplicial complex \Delta. One is the Stanley-Reisner ideal I_\Delta, the monomial ideal generated by minimal non-faces of \Delta, well-known in combinatorial commutative algebra.…

In this paper we prove that the Stanley--Reisner ideal or cover ideal $I$ of a matroid is minimally resolvable by iterated mapping cones. As a technical tool for this purpose, we introduce and study focal matroids, which are submatroids of…

In this short note we give an elementary description of the linear part of the minimal free resolution of a Stanley-Reisner ring of a simplicial complex $\Delta$. Indeed, the differentials in the linear part are simply a compilation of…

We study the regularity of symbolic powers of square-free monomial ideals. We prove that if $I = I_\Delta$ is the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial complex $\Delta$, then $\reg(I^{(n)}) \leqslant \delta(n-1) +b$ for all $n\geqslant 1$,…

We investigate the rational powers of ideals. We find that in the case of monomial ideals, the canonical indexing leads to a characterization of the rational powers yielding that symbolic powers of squarefree monomial ideals are indeed…

We present some examples of squarefree monomial ideals whose arithmetical rank can be computed using linear algebraic considerations.

This paper studies the numbers of minimal generators of powers of monomial ideals in polynomial rings. For a monomial ideal $I$ in two variables, Eliahou, Herzog, and Saem gave a sharp lower bound $\mu (I^2)\ge 9$ for the number of minimal…

We develop a new technique for studying monomial ideals in the standard polynomial rings $A[X_1,\ldots,X_d]$ where $A$ is a commutative ring with identity. The main idea is to consider induced ideals in the semigroup ring…

We show how to lift any monomial ideal J in n variables to a saturated ideal I of the same codimension in n+t variables. We show that I has the same graded Betti numbers as J and we show how to obtain the matrices for the resolution of I.…

Let $K$ be a field, $V$ a $K$-vector space with basis $e_1,\ldots,e_n$, and $E$ the exterior algebra of $V$. To a given monomial ideal $I\subsetneq E$ we associate a special monomial ideal $J$ with generators in the same degrees as those of…

Fix a square-free monomial $m \in S = \mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. The square-free principal Borel ideal generated by $m$, denoted ${\rm sfBorel}(m)$, is the ideal generated by all the square-free monomials that can be obtained via Borel…

Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and let $I$ be a monomial ideal of $R$. In this paper, we present an explicit formula for the Betti numbers of almost complete intersection monomial ideals,…

We study when Taylor resolutions of monomial ideals are minimal. We consider monomial ideals with linear quotients. In particular, we determine precisely the stable ideals and the monomial ideals with linear resolutions having the miminal…

Let $F$ be a field and $M_n(F)$ the ring of $n \times n$ matrices over $F$. Given a subset $S$ of $M_n(F)$, the null ideal of $S$ is the set of all polynomials $f$ with coefficients from $M_n(F)$ such that $f(A) = 0$ for all $A \in S$. We…

We introduce the concept of relational depth of a finite semigroup $S$ whose $J$-classes form a chain. It captures how far down in the ideal structure one is obliged to go in order to define the semigroup by generators and defining…

We study closed subschemes $X$ in ${\mathbb P}^n$ of dimension one, locally defined at any point by at most $n$ equations such that the analytic spread of $I_{\mathfrak{m}}$ is at most $n$, where $I \subseteq \Bbbk[x_0, \ldots, x_n] $ is…

In this paper we use polarization to study the behavior of the depth and regularity of a monomial ideal $I$, locally at a variable $x_i$, when we lower the degree of all the highest powers of the variable $x_i$ occurring in the minimal…

Let $K$ be a field and $S=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$. Let $I$ be a monomial ideal of $S$ and $u_1,\ldots, u_r$ be monomials in $S$ which form a filter-regular sequence on $S/I$. We show that $S/I$ is pretty clean if and only if $S/(I,u_1,\ldots,…

We study ideal-theoretic conditions for a monomial ideal to be Golod. For ideals in a polynomial ring in three variables, our criteria give a complete characterization. Over such rings, we show that the product of two monomial ideals is…
