A quasi-equigenerated monomial ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $R= k[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ is a Freiman ideal if $\mu(I^2) = l(I)\mu(I)- \binom{l(I)}{2}$ where $l(I)$ is the analytic spread of $I$ and $\mu(I)$ is the number of minimal…
The Stern poset $\mathcal{S}$ is a graded infinite poset naturally associated to Stern's triangle, which was defined by Stanley analogously to Pascal's triangle. Let $P_n$ denote the interval of $\mathcal{S}$ from the unique element of row…
The union-closed sets conjecture (sometimes referred to as Frankl's conjecture) states that every finite, nontrivial union-closed family of sets has an element that is in at least half of its members. Although the conjecture is known to be…
Stanley, building on work of Stern, defined an array of numbers by the recurrence $s(n, 2k) = s(n-1, k)$, $s(n, 2k+1) = s(n-1, k) + s(n-1, k+1)$. Stanley showed that, for each positive integer $r$, the sequence $s_n^r:= \sum_k s(n,k)^r$…
Let $R$ be a smooth affine algebra over an infinite perfect field $k$. Let $I\subset R$ be an ideal, $\omega_I:(R/I)^n\to I/I^2$ a surjective homomorphism and $Q_{2n}\subset \mathbb{A}^{2n+1}$ be the smooth quadric defined by the equation…
A family of permutations A \subset S_n is said to be intersecting if any two permutations in A agree at some point, i.e. for any \sigma, \pi \in A, there is some i such that \sigma(i)=\pi(i). Deza and Frankl showed that for such a family,…
We provide an algorithm that computes a set of generators for any complete ideal in a smooth complex surface. More interestingly, these generators admit a presentation as monomials in a set of maximal contact elements associated to the…
Given an arbitrary integer $d>0$, we construct a homogeneous ideal $I$ of the polynomial ring $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_{3d}]$ in $3d$ variables over a filed $K$ for which $S/I$ is a Cohen--Macaulay ring of dimension $d$ with the property that,…
In this paper we investigate the monomial ideals which satisfy the copersistence property or nearly copersistence property.
An equigenerated monomial ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $S= K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is a Freiman ideal if $\mu(I^2)=\ell(I)\mu(I)-{\ell(I)\choose 2}$ where $\ell(I)$ is the analytic spread of $I$ and $\mu(I)$ is the number of minimal…
We partition in classes the set of matroids of fixed dimension on a fixed vertex set. In each class we identify two special matroids, respectively with minimal and maximal h-vector in that class. Such extremal matroids also satisfy a…
Let $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\deg x_i = 1$ and $I \subset S$ a homogeneous ideal of $S$ with $\dim S/I = d$. The Hilbert series of $S/I$ is of the form…
Stanley proved that, in characteristic zero, all artinian monomial complete intersections have the strong Lefschetz property. We provide a positive characteristic complement to Stanley's result in the case of artinian monomial complete…
A monomial ideal $I$ admits a Betti splitting $I=J+K$ if the Betti numbers of $I$ can be determined in terms of the Betti numbers of the ideals $J,K$ and $J \cap K$. Given a monomial ideal $I$, we prove that $I=J+K$ is a Betti splitting of…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic $p$ and $G$ a finite $p$-group. Let $V$ be a finite-dimensional linear representation of $G$ over $\Bbbk$. Write $S = \mathrm{Sym} V^*$. For a class of $p$-groups which we call…
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…
Let $I \subset K[x,y]$ be a monomial ideal. How small can $\mu(I^2)$ be in terms of $\mu(I)$? It has been expected that the inequality $\mu(I^2) > \mu(I)$ should hold whenever $\mu(I) \ge 2$. Here we disprove this expectation and provide a…
This paper studies algebraic residual intersections in rings with Serre's condition \( S_{s} \). It demonstrates that residual intersections admit free approaches i.e. perfect subideal with the same radical. This fact leads to determining a…
For a monomial ideal $I$, let $G(I)$ be its minimal set of monomial generators. If there is a total order on $G(I)$ such that the corresponding Lyubeznik resolution of $I$ is a minimal free resolution of $I$, then $I$ is called a Lyubeznik…
