We prove sharp estimates on the quadratic strand of the resolution of any homogeneous prime ideal in a standard graded polynomial ring over an arbitrary field. Our bounds only depend on the height of the prime ideal, and they are optimal…
Let $\mathscr{R}$ denote the ring of real polynomials on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$. Fix $m\geq 0$, and let $A_{1},\cdots ,A_{M}\in \mathscr{R}$. The $ C^{m}$-closure of $\left( A_{1},\cdots ,A_{M}\right) $, denoted here by $ \left[ A_{1},\cdots…
Let $I\subset \mathbb C[x,y,z]$ be an ideal of height 2 and minimally generated by three homogeneous polynomials of the same degree. If $I$ is a locally complete intersection we give a criterion for $\mathbb C[x,y,z]/I$ to be arithmetically…
We give a bound on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a homogeneous ideals I, in a polynomial ring A, in terms of number of variables and the degrees of generators, when the dimension of A/I is at most two. This bound improves the one…
Let $\KX =K\langle X_1,\ldots ,X_n\rangle$ be the free algebra generated by $X=\{ X_1,\ldots ,X_n\}$ over a field $K$. It is shown that with respect to any weighted $\mathbb{N}$-gradation attached to $\KX$, minimal homogeneous generating…
Let C be a locally Cohen-Macaulay curve in complex projective 3-space. The maximum genus problem predicts the largest possible arithmetic genus g(d,s) that C can achieve assuming that it has degree d and does not lie on surfaces of degree…
Assume $R$ is a polynomial ring over a field and $I$ is a homogeneous Gorenstein ideal of codimension $g\ge3$ and initial degree $p\ge2$. We prove that the number of minimal generators $\nu(I_p)$ of $I$ that are in degree $p$ is bounded…
We give effective upper bounds for the number of purely inseparable points on non isotrivial curves over function fields of positive characteristic and of transcendence degree one. These bounds depend on the genus of the curve, the genus of…
Let $C$ be a regular, irreducible curve that is projective over a field. We obtain bounds in terms of the arithmetic genus of $C$ for the generators that are required for the cokernel of the tame symbol, as well as, under a simplifying…
Given a parametrization of a rational plane algebraic curve C, some explicit adjoint pencils on C are described in terms of determinants. Moreover, some generators of the Rees algebra associated to this parametrization are presented. The…
We describe a generating set for the initial ideal of simplicial toric ideals with respect to the graded reverse lexicographic order, using representations of elements of affine monoids as sums of irreducible elements. Although the…
We study the number of generators of ideals in regular rings and ask the question whether $\mu(I)<\mu(I^2)$ if $I$ is not a principal ideal, where $\mu(J)$ denotes the number of generators of an ideal $J$. We provide lower bounds for the…
We consider a nodal curve $C$ in the complex projective plane whose irreducible components $C_i$ are smooth. A minimal set of generators $G$ for the first and second syzygy modules of the Jacobian ideal of $C$ are described, using recent…
Let $a, b$ and $n > 1$ be three positive integers such that $a$ and $\sum_{j=0}^{n-1} b^j$ are relatively prime. In this paper, we prove that the toric ideal $I$ associated to the submonoid of $\mathbb{N}$ generated by $\{\sum_{j=0}^{n-1}…
The degree excess function $\epsilon(I;n)$ is the difference between the maximal generating degree $d(I^n)$ of a homogeneous ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring and $p(I)n$, where $p(I)$ is the leading coefficient of the asymptotically linear…
Let $I\supsetneq J$ be two squarefree monomial ideals of a polynomial algebra over a field generated in degree $\geq d$, resp. $\geq d+1$ . Suppose that $I$ is generated by three monomials of degrees $d$. If the Stanley depth of $I/J$ is…
We study the problem of efficiently constructing a curve C of genus 2 over a finite field F for which either the curve C itself or its Jacobian has a prescribed number N of F-rational points. In the case of the Jacobian, we show that any…
We construct a (shellable) polyhedral cell complex that supports a minimal free resolution of a Borel fixed ideal, which is minimally generated (in the Borel sense) by just one monomial in S=k[x_1,x_2,...,x_n]; this includes the case of…

For an ideal $I\subseteq\mathbb{R}[x]$ given by a set of generators, a new semidefinite characterization of its real radical $I(V_\mathbb{R}(I))$ is presented, provided it is zero-dimensional (even if $I$ is not). Moreover we propose an…
