For an arbitrary ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R$ we define the notion of initially regular sequences on $R/I$. These sequences share properties with regular sequences. In particular, the length of an initially regular sequence provides a…

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…

Distance ideals generalize the Smith normal form of the distance matrix of a graph. The family of graphs with 2 trivial distance ideals contains the family of graphs whose distance matrix has at most 2 invariant factors equal to 1. Here we…

We show that under some conditions, if the initial ideal in$_<(I)$ of an ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring has the property that its symbolic and ordinary powers coincide, then the ideal $I$ shares the same property. We apply this result to…

Given a finite simple graph one can associate the edge ideal. In this paper we prove that a graded Betti number of the edge ideal does not vanish if the original graph contains a set of complete bipartite subgraphs with some conditions.…

We classify modules and rings with some specific properties of their intersection graphs. In particular, we describe rings with infinite intersection graphs containing maximal left ideals of finite degree. This answers a question raised in…

Several algebraic properties of a binomial edge ideal $J_G$ can be interpreted in terms of combinatorial properties of its associated graph $G$. In particular, the so-called cut sets of a graph $G$, special sets of vertices that disconnect…

We introduce the graph theoretical parameter of edge treewidth. This parameter occurs in a natural way as the tree-like analogue of cutwidth or, alternatively, as an edge-analogue of treewidth. We study the combinatorial properties of…

Let $G$ be a simple graph on the vertex set $[n]$ and $J_G$ be the corresponding binomial edge ideal. Let $G=v*H$ be the cone of $v$ on $H$. In this article, we compute all the Betti numbers of $J_G$ in terms of Betti number of $J_H$ and as…

The critical ideals of a graph are the determinantal ideals of the generalized Laplacian matrix associated to a graph. A basic property of the critical ideals of graphs asserts that the graphs with at most k trivial critical ideals,…

We study the symbolic $F$-splitness of families of binomial edge ideals. We also study the strong $F$-regularity of the symbolic blowup algebras of families of binomial edge ideals. We make use of Fedder-like criteria and combinatorial…

In this paper we give new upper bounds on the regularity of edge ideals whose resolutions are k-steps linear; surprisingly, the bounds are logarithmic in the number of variables. We also give various bounds for the projective dimension of…

Let $I(G)$ be the edge ideal of a simple graph $G$. We prove that $I(G)^2$ has a linear free resolution if and only if $G$ is gap-free and reg$I(G) \le 3$. Similarly, we show that $I(G)^3$ has a linear free resolution if and only if $G$ is…

Let $G$ be a connected finite simple graph and let $I_G$ be the edge ideal of $G$. The smallest number $k$ for which $\depth S/I_G^k$ stabilizes is denoted by $\dstab(I_G)$. We show that $\dstab(I_G)<\ell(I_G)$ where $\ell(I_G)$ denotes the…

The treewidth of a graph is an important invariant in structural and algorithmic graph theory. This paper studies the treewidth of line graphs. We show that determining the treewidth of the line graph of a graph $G$ is equivalent to…

The symmetric edge polytope of a simple graph is a lattice polytope defined as the convex hull of a subset of the type A roots corresponding to the edges of the graph. In this article we prove a sharp lower bound for the number of edges of…

We raise some questions about graph polynomials, highlighting concepts and phenomena that may merit consideration in the development of a general theory. Our questions are mainly of three types: When do graph polynomials have reduction…

This paper gives exact formulas for the regularity of edge ideals of edge-weighted integrally closed trees. In addition, we provide some linear upper bounds on the regularity of powers of such ideals.
