Let $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I\subset S$ a squarefree monomial ideal. In the present paper we are interested in the monomials $u \in S$ belonging to the socle $\Soc(S/I^{k})$ of…

We compute the Stanley depth for a particular, but important case, of the quotient of complete intersection monomial ideals. Also, in the general case, we give sharp bounds for the Stanley depth of a quotient of complete intersection…

Let $P_1,...,P_n$ be generic homogeneous polynomials in $n$ variables of degrees $d_1,...,d_n$ respectively. We prove that if $\nu$ is an integer satisfying ${\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}-n+1-\min\{d_i\}<\nu,$ then all multivariate subresultants…

Motivated by questions about square-free monomial ideals in polynomial rings, in 2010 Francisco et al. conjectured that for every positive integer k and every k-critical (i.e., critically k-chromatic) graph, there is a set of vertices whose…

We show that in a polynomial ring $R$ in $N$ variables over an algebraically closed field $K$ of arbitrary characteristic, any $K$-subalgebra of $R$ generated over $K$ by at most $n$ forms of degree at most $d$ is contained in a…

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…

We study basic properties of monomial ideals with linear quotients. It is shown that if the monomial ideal $I$ has linear quotients, then the squarefree part of $I$ and each component of $I$ as well as $\mm I$ have linear quotients, where…

Let $R$ be a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero and let $I \subset R$ be a graded ideal of height $N$ which is minimally generated by $N+1$ homogeneous polynomials. If $I=(f_1,...,f_{N+1})$ where $f_i$ has degree $d_i$ and…

A long-standing conjecture of Stanley states that every Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complex is partitionable. We disprove the conjecture by constructing an explicit counterexample. Due to a result of Herzog, Jahan and Yassemi, our…

We give an upper bound for the Stanley depth of the edge ideal of a complete $k$-partite hypergraph and as an application we give an upper bound for the Stanley depth of a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $S$. We also give a lower and an…

M. Morales introduced a family of binomial ideals that are binomial extensions of square free monomial ideals. Let $I\subset \si$ be a square free monomial ideal and $J\subset\sis$ a sum of scroll ideals with some extra conditions, we…

We describe an algorithm which finds binomials in a given ideal $I\subset\mathbb{Q}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ and in particular decides whether binomials exist in $I$ at all. Binomials in polynomial ideals can be well hidden. For example, the lowest…

Let J be a strongly stable monomial ideal in P=k[X0,...,Xn] and let BSt(J) be the family of all the homogeneous ideals in P such that the set N(J) of all the monomials that do not belong to J is a k-vector basis of the quotient P/I. We show…

We determine the density of monic integer polynomials of given degree $n>1$ that have squarefree discriminant; in particular, we prove for the first time that the lower density of such polynomials is positive. Similarly, we prove that the…

Given a squarefree monomial ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring $Q$, we show that if the minimal free resolution $\mathbb{F}$ of $Q/I$ admits the structure of a differential graded (dg) algebra, then so does any ``pruning" of $\mathbb{F}$. In…

In this paper we study the behavior of the size of a monomial ideal under polarization and under generic deformations. As an application, we extend a result relating the size and the Stanley depth of a squarefree monomial ideal obtained by…

A square-free monomial ideal $I$ is called an {\it $f$-ideal}, if both $\delta_{\mathcal{F}}(I)$ and $\delta_{\mathcal{N}}(I)$ have the same $f$-vector, where $\delta_{\mathcal{F}}(I)$ ($\delta_{\mathcal{N}}(I)$, respectively) is the facet…

We focus on the structure of a homogeneous Gorenstein ideal $I$ of codimension three in a standard polynomial ring $R=\kk[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ over a field $\kk$, assuming that $I$ is generated in a fixed degree $d$. For such an ideal $I$ this…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be a local complete intersection ring and let $I$ be an ideal in $A$. Let $M, N$ be finitely generated $A$-modules. Then for $l = 0,1$, the values $depth \ Ext^{2i+l}_A(M, N/I^nN)$ become independent of $i, n$ for…
