An algorithm is presented that generates sets of size equal to the degree of a given variety defined by a homogeneous ideal. This algorithm suggests a versatile framework to study various problems in combinatorial algebraic geometry and…
A constructive procedure is given to determine all ideals of a solvable Lie algebra. This is used in determining algorithmically all conjugacy classes of subalgebras of a given solvable Lie algebra.
Conca and Herzog proved that any product of ideals of linear forms in a polynomial ring has a linear resolution. The goal of this paper is to establish the same result for any quadric hypersurface. The main tool we develop and use is a…
Given a skew-symmetric matrix $X$, the Pfaffian of $X$ is defined as the square root of the determinant of $X$. In this article, we give the explicit defining equations of the Rees algebra of a Pfaffian ideal $I$ generated by the maximal…
It has been well known since Gauss that the principality of an ideal in a real quadratic field $K$ is equivalent to the solvability of a certain generalized Pell equations. In this paper, we combine this classical result with Srinivasan's…
We investigate the defining ideal of the algebra over a field generated by the join-meet binomials coming from a finite distributive lattice. In the frame of algebras with straightening laws, the problem when the defining ideal is generated…
We compute explicitly the primitive ideal space of the Bost-Connes Hecke C*-algebra by embedding it as a full corner in a transformation group C*-algebra and applying a general theorem of Williams. This requires the computation of the…
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…
In combinatorial commutative algebra and algebraic statistics many toric ideals are constructed from graphs. Keeping the categorical structure of graphs in mind we give previous results a more functorial context and generalize them by…
Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over a field and $A$ a standard graded $S$-algebra. In terms of the Gr\"obner basis of the defining ideal $J$ of $A$ we give a condition, called the x-condition, which implies that all graded…
Some relations between cohomological dimensions and depths of linked ideals are investigated and discussed by various examples.
Let C be an irreducible projective curve of degree d in Pn(K), where K is an algebraically closed field, and let I be the associated homogeneous prime ideal. We wish to compute generators for I, assuming we are given sufficiently many…
Let $J\subset I$ be ideals in a formally equidimensional local ring with $\lambda(I/J)<\infty.$ Rees proved that for all $n\gg0$, $\lambda(I^n/J^n)$ is a polynomial $P(I/J)(X)$ in $n$ of degree at most dim $R$ and $J$ is a reduction of $I$…
The number of equations needed to cut out a variety given by an ideal is called the arithmetic rank (of the ideal). It was shown in [8] that the notion of arithmetic rank is strongly related to the concept of regular sequences on the Matlis…
Given a minimal set of generators $\bold{x}$ of an ideal $I$ of height d in a regular local ring ($R, m, k$) we prove several cases for which the map $K_d(\bold{x}; R) \otimes k \to \Tor_d^R (R/I, k)$ is the 0-map. As a consequence of the…
In this paper, we study orthogonal representations of simple graphs $G$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ from an algebraic perspective in case $d = 2$. Orthogonal representations of graphs, introduced by Lov\'asz, are maps from the vertex set to…
Let $(S, m)$ be an $n$-dimensional regular local ring essentially of finite type over a field and let $I$ be an ideal of $S$. We prove that if $\text{depth} S/I \ge 3$, then the cohomological dimension $\mathrm{cd}(S, I)$ of $I$ is less…
We compute the genus of a rational quadratic form in terms of the K-theory of a C*-algebra attached to the adelic orthogonal group of the form. As a corollary, one gets a higher composition law for the rational quadratic forms. As an…
Over a field of characteristic zero, we prove that for each r, there exists a constant C(r) so that the prime ideal of the rth secant variety of any Veronese embedding of any projective space is generated by polynomials of degree at most…
The aim of this paper is to study some distinguished classes of $k$-ideals of semirings, which include $k$-prime, $k$-semiprime, $k$-radical, $k$-irreducible, and $k$-strongly irreducible ideals. We discuss some of the properties of…
