Considering finite extensions K[A] \subseteq K[B] of positive affine semigroup rings over a field K we have developed in [1] an algorithm to decompose K[B] as a direct sum of monomial ideals in K[A]. By computing the regularity of…

We study monomial ideals using the operation polarization to first turn them into square-free monomial ideals. We focus on monomial ideals whose polarization produce simplicial trees, and show that many of the properties of simplicial trees…

Given finite posets $P$ and $Q$, we consider a specific ideal $L(P,Q)$, whose minimal monomial generators correspond to order-preserving maps $\phi:P\rightarrow Q$. We study algebraic invariants of those ideals. In particular, sharp lower…

Let $S=K[x_1, \ldots,x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I \subset S$ a monomial ideal. Given a vector $\mathfrak{c}\in\mathbb{N}^n$, the ideal $I_{\mathfrak{c}}$ is the ideal generated by those monomials…

In a recent work, Fouli and Lin generalized a Villarreal's result and showed that if each connected components of the line graph of a squarefree monomial ideal contains at most a unique odd cycle, then this ideal is of linear type. In this…

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…

Inspired by work of Cartwright and Sturmfels, in a previous paper we introduced two classes of multigraded ideals named after them. These ideals are defined in terms of properties of their multigraded generic initial ideals. The goal of…

We characterize monomial ideals which are intersections of monomial prime ideals and study classes of ideals with this property, among them polymatroidal ideals.

Given a simple graph, consider the polynomial ring with coefficients in a field and variables identified with the edges of the graph. Given a non-empty even cardinality Eulerian subgraph and a choice of half of its edges, consider the…

We make some observations on binomial edge ideals, with the characterization of their Koszulness as motivation. Inspired by results of Ene, Herzog and Hibi, we discuss building Koszul graphs from smaller pieces in a controlled manner. We…

The geometric vertex decomposability property for polynomial ideals is an ideal-theoretic generalization of the vertex decomposability property for simplicial complexes. Indeed, a homogeneous geometrically vertex decomposable ideal is…

In this paper we study irreducible representations and symbolic Rees algebras of monomial ideals. Then we examine edge ideals associated to vertex-weighted oriented graphs. These are digraphs having no oriented cycles of length two with…

In analogy to the skeletons of a simplicial complex and their Stanley--Reisner ideals we introduce the skeletons of an arbitrary monomial ideal $I\subset S=K[x_1,...,x_n]$. This allows us to compute the depth of $S/I$ in terms of its…

We study algebraic and homological properties of the ideal of submaximal minors of a sparse generic symmetric matrix. This ideal is generated by all $(n-1)$-minors of a symmetric $n \times n$ matrix whose entries in the upper triangle are…

Several algebraic properties of a binomial edge ideal $J_G$ can be interpreted in terms of combinatorial properties of its associated graph $G$. In particular, the so-called cut sets of a graph $G$, special sets of vertices that disconnect…

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $A=K[x_1,...,x_n]$. We call a monomial ideal $J$ to be a minimal monomial reduction ideal of $I$ if there exists no proper monomial ideal $L \subset J$ such that $L$ is a reduction ideal of…

A tetrahedral curve is a (usually nonreduced) curve in P^3 defined by an unmixed, height two ideal generated by monomials. We characterize when these curves are arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay by associating a graph to each curve and, using…

For a finite simple graph $G$ and an integer $r \ge 1$, the $r$-connected ideal $I_r(G)$ is the squarefree monomial ideal generated by the vertex sets of connected induced subgraphs of size $r+1$, extending the classical edge ideal. We…

Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity is a measure of algebraic complexity of an ideal. Regularity of monomial ideals can be investigated combinatorially. We use a simple graph decomposition and results from structural graph theory to prove,…
