In 1991, Yannakakis (J. Comput. System Sci., 1991) proved that no symmetric extended formulation for the matching polytope of the complete graph K_n with n nodes has a number of variables and constraints that is bounded subexponentially in…
We construct a generalization of the theory of symmetric functions involving functions of commuting and anticommuting (Grassmannian) variables. These new functions, called symmetric functions in superspace, are invariant under the diagonal…
We study $\textrm{Sym}(\infty)$-orbit closures of not necessarily closed points in the Zariski spectrum of the infinite polynomial ring $\mathbb{C}[x_{ij}:\, i\in\mathbb{N},\,j\in[n]]$. Among others, we characterize invariant prime ideals…
Berenstein and Kazhdan's theory of geometric crystals gives rise to two commuting families of geometric crystal operators acting on the space of complex $m \times n$ matrices. These are birational actions, which we view as a…
We study conditions on polynomials such that the ideal generated by their orbits under the symmetric group action becomes a monomial ideal or has a monomial radical. If the polynomials are homogeneous, we expect that such an ideal has a…
This article studies separating invariants for the ring of multisymmetric polynomials in $m$ sets of $n$ variables over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{K}$. We prove that in order to obtain separating sets it is enough to consider polynomials…
For certain negative rational numbers k, called singular values, and associated with the symmetric group S_N on N objects, there exist homogeneous polynomials annihilated by each Dunkl operator when the parameter equals k. It was shown by…
Let $R$ and $S$ be standard graded algebras over a field $k$, and $I \subseteq R$ and $J \subseteq S$ homogeneous ideals. Denote by $P$ the sum of the extensions of $I$ and $J$ to $R\otimes_k S$. We investigate several important homological…
Over an algebraically closed base field $k$ of characteristic 2, the ring $R^G$ of invariants is studied, $G$ being the orthogonal group O(n) or the special orthogonal group SO(n) and acting naturally on the coordinate ring $R$ of the…
Let $R$ be a ring satisfying a polynomial identity and let $D$ be a derivation of $R$. We consider the Jacobson radical of the skew polynomial ring $R[x;D]$ with coefficients in $R$ and with respect to $D$, and show that $J(R[x;D])\cap R$…
We characterize the monomial ideals $I\subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ with the property that the polarization $I^p$ and $I^{\sigma^n}:=$ the ideal obtained from $I$ by the $n$-th iterated squarefree operator $\sigma$ are isomorphic via a…
Assume that $K$ is a field and $I_{1}\subsetneq ...\subsetneq I_{t}$ is an ascending chain (of length $t$) of ideals in the polynomial ring $K[x_{1},,...,x_{m}]$, for some $m\geq 1$. Suppose that $I_{j}$ is generated by polynomials of…
Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$ and $I$ is an ideal in $A$. Then M. P. Murthy conjectured that $\mu(I)=\mu(I/I^2)$, where $\mu$ denotes the minimal number of generators. Recently, Fasel \cite{F}…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic $0$, and let $k \geq 2$ be an integer. We prove that every $K$-linear bijection $f \colon K[X] \to K[X]$ strongly preserving the set of $k$-free polynomials (or the set of polynomials with a $k$-fold…
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…
In this article we prove the following result: that for any two natural numbers k and j, and for all sufficiently large symmetric groups Sym(n), there are k disjoint sets of j irreducible characters of Sym(n), such that each set consists of…
We prove that for every natural number n there exists a natural number N(n) such that every multilinear skew-symmetric polynomial on N(n) or more variables which vanishes in the free associative algebra vanishes as well in any n-generated…
A numerical semigroup is called cyclotomic if its corresponding numerical semigroup polynomial $P_S(x)=(1-x)\sum_{s\in S}x^s$ is expressable as the product of cyclotomic polynomials. Ciolan, Garc\'ia-S\'anchez, and Moree conjectured that…
We consider the problem of finding sum of squares (sos) expressions to establish the non-negativity of a symmetric polynomial over a discrete hypercube whose coordinates are indexed by the $k$-element subsets of $[n]$. For simplicity, we…
A singular polynomial is one which is annihilated by all Dunkl operators for a certain parameter value. These polynomials were first studied by Dunkl, de Jeu and Opdam, (Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 346 (1994), 237-256). This paper constructs a…
