We investigate, using the notion of linear quotients, significative classes of connected graphs whose monomial edge ideals, not necessarily squarefree, have linear resolution, in order to compute standard algebraic invariants of the…
Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan have conjectured that for any homogeneous $k$-algebra, the multiplicity is bounded above by a function of the maximal degrees of the syzygies and below by a function of the minimal degrees of the syzygies. The…
We consider the variety of $(p+1)$-tuples of matrices $M_j$ from given conjugacy classes from $GL(n,{\bf C})$ such that $M_1... M_{p+1}=I$. This variety is connected with the Deligne-Simpson problem and the matrices $M_j$ are interpreted as…
We study a natural generalization of transversally intersecting smooth hypersurfaces in a complex manifold: hypersurfaces, whose components intersect in a transversal way but may be themselves singular. Such hypersurfaces will be called…
We introduce the concept of $j$-stretched ideals in a Noetherian local ring. This notion generalizes to arbitrary ideals the classical notion of stretched $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals of Sally and Rossi-Valla, as well as the concept of…
In this article we study inequalities of ideal norms. We prove that in a subring $R$ of a number field every ideal can be generated by at most $3$ elements if and only if the ideal norm satisfies $N(IJ) \geq N(I)N(J)$ for every pair of…
This is a survey article featuring some of Wolmer Vasconcelos' contributions to commutative algebra, and explaining how Vasconcelos' work and insights have contributed to the development of commutative algebra and its interaction with other…
The goal of this short note is to prove that when $A$ is a closed *-subalgebra of a C*-algebra $B$ satisfying the ideal intersection property plus a mild axiom (INV), then the map $J\mapsto J\cap A$ establishes an isomorphism from the…
We introduce multinomial and $r$-variants of several classic objects of combinatorial probability, such as the random recursive and Hoppe trees, random set partitions and compositions, the Chinese restaurant process, Feller's coupling, and…
Motivated by the famous Skolem-Mahler-Lech theorem we initiate in this paper the study of a natural class of determinantal varieties which we call {\em Vandermonde varieties}. They are closely related to the varieties consisting of all…
This paper introduces vector copulas associated with multivariate distributions with given multivariate marginals, based on the theory of measure transportation, and establishes a vector version of Sklar's theorem. The latter provides a…
In [5] I.P. Goulden, D.M. Jackson, and R. Vakil formulated a conjecture relating certain Hurwitz numbers (enumerating ramified coverings of the sphere) to the intersection theory on a conjectural Picard variety. We are going to use their…
Let $\mathbb{V}$ denote an $n$-tuple of shifts of finite multiplicity, and denote by $\mathrm{Ann}(\mathbb{V})$ the ideal consisting of polynomials $p$ in $n$ complex variables such that $p(\mathbb{V})=0$. If $\mathbb{W}$ on $\mathfrak{K}$…
We define the topological multiplicity of an invertible topological system $(X,T)$ as the minimal number $k$ of real continuous functions $f_1,\cdots, f_k$ such that the functions $f_i\circ T^n$, $n\in\mathbb Z$, $1\leq i\leq k,$ span a…
The purpose of this paper is to elucidate, by means of concepts and theorems drawn from mathematical logic, the conditions under which the existence of a multiverse is a logical necessity in mathematical physics, and the implications of…
We study the multiplicities of pure motives modulo numerical equivalence, which are defined as scalars comparing the tannakian trace with the ring-theoretic trace. Our general set-up is that of a rigid semi-simple tensor category such that…
We investigate the interplay between invariant varieties of vector fields and the inflection locus of linear systems with respect to the vector field. Among the consequences of such investigation we obtain a computational criteria for the…
We study the class of equimultiple modules. In particular, we prove several criteria for an equimultiple module to be a complete intersection and prove the openness of the equimultiple locus of an ideal module.
In this paper, we propose a conjectural multiplicity formula for general spherical varieties. For all the cases where a multiplicity formula has been proved, including Whittaker model, Gan-Gross-Prasad model, Ginzburg-Rallis model, Galois…
The purpose of this paper is to combine classical methods from transcendental number theory with the technique of restriction to real scalars. We develop a conceptual approach relating transcendence properties of algebraic groups to results…
