Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, and let $\mathfrak a$ be a proper ideal of $R$. Let $M$ be a non-zero finitely generated $R$-module with the finite projective dimension $p$. Also, let $N$ be a non-zero finitely generated…

Let I be a homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring P over a field. By Macaulay's Theorem, there exists a lexicographic ideal L=Lex(I) with the same Hilbert function as I. Peeva has proved that the Betti numbers of P/I can be obtained from…

In this paper, we explore the structure of the normal Sally modules of rank one with respect to an $m$-primary ideal in a Nagata reduced local ring which is not necessary Cohen-Macaulay. As an application of this result, when the base ring…

In this paper, we consider different types of non-positive curvature properties of the Hilbert metric of a convex domain in R^n. First, we survey the relationships among the concepts and prove that in the case of Hilbert metric some of them…

We consider initial boundary value problems with the homogeneous Neumann boundary condition. Given an initial value, we establish the uniqueness in determining a spatially varying coefficient of zeroth-order term by a single measurement of…

In this paper, new algebraic and topological results on purely-prime ideals of a commutative ring (pure spectrum) are obtained. Especially, Grothendieck type theorem is obtained which states that there is a canonical correspondence between…

The notion of weakly Laskerian modules was introduced recently by the authors. Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring with identity, $\fa$ an ideal of $R$, and $M$ a weakly Laskerian module. It is shown that if $\fa$ is principal, then…

Let $G$ be a simple graph on $n$ vertices, and let $J_G$ denotes the corresponding binomial edge ideal in $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\ldots,x_n,y_1,\ldots,y_n]$, where $\mathbb{K}$ is a field. We show that if a vertex satisfies a certain degree…

We interpret Hilbert-Kunz theory of a graded ring of positive characteristic in terms of Frobenius asymptotic of cohomology of vector bundles on projective varieties. With this method we show that for almost all prime numbers there exist…

Using algebraic geometry methods, the third author proved that the group ring of a surjunctive group with coefficients in a field is always stably finite. In other words, every group satisfying Gottschalk's conjecture also satisfies…

Given a local Cohen-Macaulay ring $(R, {\mathfrak m})$, we study the interplay between the integral closedness -- or even the normality -- of an ${\mathfrak m}$-primary $R$-ideal $I$ and conditions on the Hilbert coefficients of $I$. We…

Given a homogeneous ideal I of a polynomial ring A=K[X_1,...,X_n] and a monomial order, we construct a new monomial ideal of A associated with I. We call it the zero-generic initial ideal of I with respect to the order and denote it with…

In this paper, we explore a relationship between Hilbert functions and the irreducible decompositions of ideals in local rings. Applications are given to characterize the regularity, Gorensteinness, Cohen-Macaulayness and sequentially…

It is proved that a noetherian commutative local ring A containing a field is regular if there is a complex M of free A-modules with the following properties: M_i=0 for i not in [0,dim A]; the homology of M has finite length; H_0(M)…

Let R be a commutative noetherian ring. We prove that if R is either an equidimensional finitely generated algebra over a perfect field, or an equidimensional equicharacteristic complete local ring with a perfect residue field, then the…

Over a field of characteristic 0, every ring of invariants of a finite group is Cohen-Macaulay. This is not true for fields of positive characteristic. We consider permutation representations and their invariant rings over fields…

We give conjectures on the "asymptotic" behaviour of the Hilbert series of (quotients by) generic ideals in the exterior algebra, as the number of variables tend to infinity. Our conjectures are supported by extensive computer calculations.

Bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and Hilbert coefficients are given in terms of the arithmetic degree (if the ring is reduced) or in terms of the defining degrees. From this it follows that there exists only a finite number of…

An ideal I of a local Cohen-Macaulay ring R is called a cohomologically complete intersection if H^i_I(R) = 0 for all i \neq c = height(I). Here H^i_I(R), i \in Z denotes the local cohomology of R with respect to I. For instance, a…

We present short and elementary proofs of two theorems of Huckaba and Marley, while generalizing them at the same time to the case of a module. The theorems concern a characterization of the depth of the associated graded ring of a…
