We present a class of homogeneous ideals which are generated by monomials and binomials of degree two and are set-theoretic complete intersections. This class includes certain reducible varieties of minimal degree and, in particular, the…

Given a square-free monomial ideal $I$, we define a simplicial complex labeled by the generators of $I^2$ which supports a free resolution of $I^2$. As a consequence, we obtain (sharp) upper bounds on the Betti numbers of the second power…

Let $K$ be a field and $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, the ring of polynomials in $n$ variables, over $K$. Using the fact that the Hilbert depth is an upper bound for the Stanley depth of a quotient of squarefree monomial ideals $0\subset…

Let $(A, \oplus, *, 0)$ be an MV-algebra, $(A, \odot, 0)$ be the associated commutative semigroup, and $I$ be an ideal of $A$. Define the ideal-based zero-divisor graph $\Gamma_{I}(A)$ of $A$ with respect to $I$ to be a simple graph with…

Given a tree T on n vertices, there is an associated ideal I of a polynomial ring in n variables over a field, generated by all paths of a fixed length of T. We show that such an ideal always satisfies the Konig property and classify all…

Call a monomial ideal M "generic" if no variable appears with the same nonzero exponent in two distinct monomial generators. Using a convex polytope first studied by Scarf, we obtain a minimal free resolution of M. Any monomial ideal M can…

Most results on the value sets $V_f$ of polynomials $f \in \mathbb{F}_q[x]$ relate the cardinality $|V_f|$ to the degree of $f$. In particular, the structure of the spectrum of the class of polynomials of a fixed degree $d$ is rather well…

Let $G$ be an (oriented) graph on the vertex set $V = \{ 0, 1,\ldots,n\}$ with root $0$. Postnikov and Shapiro associated a monomial ideal $\mathcal{M}_G$ in the polynomial ring $ R = {\mathbb{K}}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$.…

We prove that if $I$ is a monomial ideal with linear quotients in a ring of polynomials $S$ in $n$ indeterminates and $\operatorname{depth}(S/I)=n-2$, then $\operatorname{sdepth}(S/I)=n-2$ and, if $I$ is squarefree,…

In this paper, we study Cstelnuovo-Mumford regularity of square-free monomial ideals generated in degree 3. We define some operations on the clutters associated to such ideals and prove that the regularity is conserved under these…

We survey a number of recent studies of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of squarefree monomial ideals. Our focus is on bounds and exact values for the regularity in terms of combinatorial data from associated simplicial complexes and/or…
