We study two long-standing conjectures concerning lower bounds for the Betti numbers of a graded module over a polynomial ring. We prove new cases of these conjectures in codimensions five and six by reframing the conjectures as arithmetic…

Polygon spaces like $M_\ell=\{(u_1,...,u_n)\in S^1\times... S^1 ;\ \sum_{i=1}^n l_iu_i=0\}/SO(2)$ or they three dimensional analogues $N_\ell$ play an important r\^ole in geometry and topology, and are also of interest in robotics where the…

We consider the line graph of a pure simplicial complex. We prove that, as in the case of line graphs of simple graphs, one can compute the second graded Betti number of the facet ideal of a pure simplicial complex in terms of the…

A bijection $\Phi$ is presented between plane bipolar orientations with prescribed numbers of vertices and faces, and non-intersecting triples of upright lattice paths with prescribed extremities. This yields a combinatorial proof of the…

Let $k$ be a field of odd characteristic $p$. Fix an even number $d<p+1$ and a power $q\geq d+3$ of $p$. For most choices of degree $d$ standard graded hypersurfaces $R=k[x,y,z]/(f)$ with homogeneous maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$, we can…

In this paper we find some exponential formulas for the Betti numbers of the De Concini-Procesi minimal wonderful models Y_{G(r,p,n)} associated to the complex reflection groups G(r,p,n). Our formulas are different from the ones already…

We present two new problems on lower bounds for resolution Betti numbers of monomial ideals generated in a fixed degree. The first concerns any such ideal and bounds the total Betti numbers, while the second concerns ideals that are…

Let $R=\Bbbk[x_1,...,x_m]$ be the polynomial ring over a field $\Bbbk$ with the standard $\mathbb Z^m$-grading (multigrading), let $L$ be a Noetherian multigraded $R$-module, let $\beta_{i,\alpha}(L)$ the $i$th (multigraded) Betti number of…

It is well-known that the Eulerian polynomials, which count permutations in $S_n$ by their number of descents, give the $h$-polynomial/$h$-vector of the simple polytopes known as permutohedra, the convex hull of the $S_n$-orbit for a…

Buchstaber invariant is a numerical characteristic of a simplicial complex, arising from torus actions on moment-angle complexes. In the paper we study the relation between Buchstaber invariants and classical invariants of simplicial…

We study the Betti tables of reducible algebraic curves with a focus on connected line arrangements and provide a general formula for computing the quadratic strand of the Betti table for line arrangements that satisfy certain hypotheses.…

For a simplicial complex K on m vertices and simplicial complexes K1,...,Km a composed simplicial complex K(K1,...,Km) is introduced. This construction generalizes an iterated simplicial wedge construction studied by A. Bahri, M. Bendersky,…

The multigraded Poincare-Betti series P_R^k(x_1,...,x_n; t) of a monomial ring k[x_1,...,x_n]/<M> on a finite number of monomial generators has the form (1+tx_1)(1+tx_2)...(1+tx_n)/b_(R,k)(x_1,...,x_n; t), where b_(R,k)(x_1,...,x_n;t) is a…

Let $\mathrm{R}$ be a real closed field. The problem of obtaining tight bounds on the Betti numbers of semi-algebraic subsets of $\mathrm{R}^k$ in terms of the number and degrees of the defining polynomials has been an important problem in…

We construct the systems of bi-orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle where the Toeplitz structure of the moment determinants is replaced by $ \det(w_{2j-k})_{0\leq j,k \leq N-1} $ and the corresponding Vandermonde modulus squared is…

We compute a minimal bigraded resolution of the Rees Algebra associated to a proper rational parametrization of a monomial plane curve. We describe explicitly both the bigraded Betti numbers and the maps of the resolution in terms of a…

For a family of polytopes of even dimension $2p$, known as \textit{dual-neighborly}, it has been shown for $p\ne 2$ that the associated intersection of quadrics is a connected sum of sphere products $S^p\times S^p$. In this article we give…

We study mathematical expectations of Betti numbers of configuration spaces of planar linkages, viewing the lengths of the bars of the linkage as random variables. Our main result gives an explicit asymptotic formulae for these mathematical…
