For a finite Coxeter group, a subword complex is a simplicial complex associated with a pair (Q, \pi), where Q is a word in the alphabet of simple reflections, $\pi$ is a group element. We discuss the transformations of such a complex…

In this paper, we use subword complexes to provide a uniform approach to finite type cluster complexes and multi-associahedra. We introduce, for any finite Coxeter group and any nonnegative integer k, a spherical subword complex called…

For a Coxeter element $c$ of a finite Coxeter group, we consider a family of subword complexes parameterized by reduced expressions of the longest element. This family generalizes $c-$cluster complexes. We describe vertices of these…

Let $K$ be a field and $I$ a monomial ideal of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$. We show that if either: 1) $I$ is almost complete intersection, 2) $I$ can be generated by less than four monomials; or 3) $I$ is the Stanley-Reisner…

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…

We show that the Stanley-Reisner ideal of the one-dimensional simplicial complex whose diagram is an $n$-gon is always a set-theoretic complete intersection in any positive characteristic.

Let $I\subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be a zero-dimensional monomial ideal, and $\Delta(I)$ be the simplicial complex whose Stanley--Reisner ideal is the polarization of $I$. It follows from a result of Soleyman Jahan that $\Delta(I)$ is…

We study simplicial complexes with a given number of vertices whose Stanley-Reisner ring has the minimal possible Betti numbers. We find that these simplicial complexes have very special combinatorial and topological structures. For…

Given an ascending chain $(I_n)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$ of $\Sym$-invariant squarefree monomial ideals, we study the corresponding chain of Alexander duals $(I_n^\vee)_{n\in\mathbb{N}}$. Using a novel combinatorial tool, which we call…

Let (\Pi,\Sigma) be a Coxeter system. An ordered list of elements in \Sigma and an element in \Pi determine a {\em subword complex}, as introduced in our paper on Gr\"obner geometry of Schubert polynomials (math.AG/0110058). Subword…

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 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…

We study the cohomology ring of the Bott--Samelson variety. We compute an explicit presentation of this ring via Soergel's result, which implies that it is a purely combinatorial invariant. We use the presentation to introduce the…

One of the main open questions in liaison theory is whether every homogeneous Cohen-Macaulay ideal in a polynomial ring is glicci, i.e. if it is in the G-liaison class of a complete intersection. We give an affirmative answer to this…

We introduce a class of Stanley-Reisner ideals called generalized complete intersection, which is characterized by the property that all the residue class rings of powers of the ideal have FLC. We also give a combinatorial characterization…

We express the v-number of the Stanley-Reisner ideal in terms of its Alexander dual complex and prove that the v-number of a cover ideal is just two less than the initial degree of the its syzygy module. We give some relation between the…

We study the intersections of general Schubert varieties X_w with permuted big cells, and give an inductive degeneration of each such "Schubert patch" to a Stanley-Reisner scheme. Similar results had been known for Schubert patches in…

For a finite Coxeter group W, a subword complex is a simplicial complex associated with a pair (Q, \rho), where Q is a word in the alphabet of simple reflections, \rho is a group element. We describe the transformations of such a complex…

In this paper, we prove that if $I\subset S:=K[x_1,...,x_n]$ is a monomial ideal then $I$ and $S/I$ satisfy the Stanley conjecture when $I$ has a small number of generators, with respect to $\depth(S/I)$ and $\max\{|P|:\;P\in\Ass(S/I)\}$.…

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…
