Given $\Sigma\subset\mathbb K[x_1,\ldots,x_k]$, any finite collection of linear forms, some possibly proportional, and any $1\leq a\leq |\Sigma|$, it has been conjectured that $I_a(\Sigma)$, the ideal generated by all $a$-fold products of…
Let $\sigma(n)$ be the sum of the divisors of $n$. Kalita and Saikia defined a number $n$ to be near superperfect if $2n+d=\sigma(\sigma(n))$ for some positive divisor $d$ of $n$. We extend some of their results about near superperfect…
We present two new problems on lower bounds for resolution Betti numbers of monomial ideals generated in a fixed degree. The first concerns any such ideal and bounds the total Betti numbers, while the second concerns ideals that are…
All Cohen--Macaulay polymatroidal ideals are classified. The Cohen--Macaulay polymatroidal ideals are precisely the principal ideals, the Veronese ideals, and the squarefree Veronese ideals.
Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with maximal ideal $\frak{m}=(x_1,...,x_n)$, and let $I$ be a graded ideal of $S$. In this paper, we define the saturation number $\sat(I)$ of $I$ to be the…
We study the licci property for several classes of squarefree monomial ideals arising from graphs and related combinatorial structures. We characterize licci bi-Cohen-Macaulay squarefree monomial ideals, complementary edge ideals, $t$-path…
Given any order ideal $U$ consisting of color-squarefree monomials involving variables with $d$ colors, we associate to it a balanced $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta_{\mathrm{bal}}(U)$ that we call a balanced squeezed…
A subspace of an algebra with involution is called a Lie skew-ideal if it is closed under Lie products with skew-symmetric elements. Lie skew-ideals are classified in central simple algebras with involution (there are eight of them for…
In a 2008 paper, the first author and Van Tuyl proved that the regularity of the edge ideal of a graph G is at most one greater than the matching number of G. In this note, we provide a generalization of this result to any square-free…
Independent sets play a key role into the study of graphs and important problems arising in graph theory reduce to them. We define the monomial ideal of independent sets associated to a finite simple graph and describe its homological and…
This article takes up the challenge of extending the classical Real Nullstellensatz of Dubois and Risler to left ideals in a *-algebra A. After introducing the notions of non-commutative zero sets and real ideals, we develop three themes…
Every monomial ideal $I$ has a Scarf complex, which is a subcomplex of its minimal free resolution. We say that $I$ is Scarf if its Scarf complex is also its minimal free resolution. In this paper, we fully characterize all pairs $(G,n)$ of…
Let I be a finitely supported complete m-primary ideal of a regular local ring (R, m). A theorem of Lipman implies that I has a unique factorization as a *-product of special *-simple complete ideals with possibly negative exponents for…
An ideal is a classical object of study in the field of algebraic number theory. In maximal quadratic orders of number fields, ideals usually represented by the $\mathbb Z$-basis. This form of representation is used in most of the…
For a polynomial ring S in n variables, we consider the natural action of the symmetric group S_n on S by permuting the variables. For an S_n-invariant monomial ideal I in S and j >= 0, we give an explicit recipe for computing the modules…
The free resolution and the Alexander dual of squarefree monomial ideals associated with certain subsets of distributive lattices are studied.
Let $K$ be a infinite field, $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ and $0\subset I\subsetneq J\subset S$ two squarefree monomial ideals. In a previous paper we proved a new formula for the Hilbert depth of $J/I$. In this paper, we illustrate how one can…
We define symmetric designs of dimension $n$ and propriety $d$, providing a unifying generalization of several classes of higher-dimensional symmetric designs previously studied. We focus on the case $n=d=3$, which leads to the following…
We count the ordered sum-free triplets of subsets in the group $\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$, i.e., the triplets $(A,B,C)$ of sets $A,B,C \subset \mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z}$ for which the equation $a+b=c$ has no solution with $a\in A$, $b \in B$ and…
For a nonzero integer $n$, a set of distinct nonzero integers $\{a_1,a_2,\ldots,a_m\}$ such that $a_ia_j+n$ is a perfect square for all $1\leq i<j\leq m$, is called a Diophantine $m$-tuple with the property $D(n)$ or simply $D(n)$-set.…
