Let $G$ be a simple graph on the vertex set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ with $m$ edges. An algebraic object attached to $G$ is the ideal $P_{G}$ generated by diagonal 2-minors of an $n \times n$ matrix of variables. In this paper we prove that if $G$…
Let $G$ be a simple finite graph. A famous theorem of Dirac says that $G$ is chordal if and only if $G$ admits a perfect elimination order. It is known by Fr\"oberg that the edge ideal $I(G)$ of $G$ has a linear resolution if and only if…
As a higher analogue of the edge ideal of a graph, we study the $t$-connected ideal $\operatorname{J}_{t}$. This is the monomial ideal generated by the connected subsets of size $t$. For chordal graphs, we show that $\operatorname{J}_{t}$…

A monomial ideal $I$ is said to have homological linear quotients if for each $k\geq 0$, the homological shift ideal $\mathrm{HS}_k(I)$ has linear quotients. It is a well-known fact that if an edge ideal $I(G)$ has homological linear…
Describing families of ideals that are minimally generated by at least one, or by all, of their reduced Gr\"obner bases is a central topic in commutative algebra. In this paper, we address this problem in the context of toric ideals of…

Let $G$ be a finite connected simple graph and $I_{G}$ the toric ideal of the edge ring $K[G]$ of $G$. In the present paper, we study finite graphs $G$ with the property that $I_{G}$ is generated by quadratic binomials and $I_{G}$ possesses…
Let $S=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over a field $K$ and $I\subset S$ be a squarefree monomial ideal generated in degree $n-2$. Motivated by the remarkable behavior of the powers of $I$ when $I$ admits a linear resolution, as…
In this paper, we study toric ideals generated by circuits. For toric ideals which have squarefree quadratic initial ideals, a sufficient condition to be generated by circuits is given. In particular, squarefree Veronese subrings, the…
Given a vertex-weighted oriented graph, we can associate to it a set of monomials. We consider the toric ideal whose defining map is given by these monomials. We find a generating set for the toric ideal for certain classes of graphs which…
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 $I(G)$ be the edge ideal of a gapfree graph $G$. An open conjecture of Nevo and Peeva states that $I(G)^q$ has linear resolution for $q\gg 0$. We present a promising approach to this challenging conjecture by investigating the stronger…
The geometric vertex decomposability property for polynomial ideals is an ideal-theoretic generalization of the vertex decomposability property for simplicial complexes. Indeed, a homogeneous geometrically vertex decomposable ideal is…
Let $G$ be a graph with chordal complement and $I(G)$ its edge ideal. From work of Herzog, Hibi, and Zheng, it is known that $I(G)$ has linear quotients and all of its powers have linear resolutions. For edge ideals $I(G)$ arising from…
Let $G$ be a simple graph on the vertex set $\{v_{1},\ldots,v_{n}\}$. An algebraic object attached to $G$ is the toric ideal $I_G$. We say that $I_G$ is subgraph splittable if there exist subgraphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ of $G$ such that…
Let I be the toric ideal of a homogeneous normal configuration. We prove that I is generated by circuits if and only if each unbalanced circuit of I has a "connector" which is a linear combination of circuits with a square-free term. In…
For each squarefree monomial ideal $I\subset S = k[x_{1},\ldots, x_{n}] $, we associate a simple graph $G_I$ by using the first linear syzygies of $I$. In cases, where $G_I$ is a cycle or a tree, we show the following are equivalent: (a) $…
