In this paper, we first show that any square-free monomial ideal in $K[x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5]$ has the strong persistence property. Next we will provide a criterion for a minimal counterexample to the Conforti-Cornuejols conjecture.…

We introduce the concept of edgewise domination in clutters, and use it to provide an upper bound for the projective dimension of any squarefree monomial ideal. We then use a simple recursion to recover a formula for the projective…
