We show that any two homogeneous affine semigroups can be glued by embedding them suitably in a higher dimensional space. As a consequence, we show that the sum of their homogeneous toric ideals is again a homogeneous toric ideal, and that…

We characterize the graphs $G$ for which their toric ideals $I_G$ are complete intersections. In particular we prove that for a connected graph $G$ such that $I_G$ is complete intersection all of its blocks are bipartite except of at most…

We prove that second and higher powers of the edge ideals of anticycles admit linear quotient orderings, although the edge ideals themselves do not, thus resolving an open question of Hoefel and Whieldon in the affirmative and providing the…

We investigate Gr\"obner bases of contraction ideals under some monomial homomorphisms. As an application of our theorem, we generalize the result of Aoki--Hibi--Ohsugi--Takemura and Hibi-Ohsugi. Using our results, one can provide many…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph. We give a lower bound for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the toric ideal $I_G$ associated to $G$ in terms of the sizes and number of induced complete bipartite graphs in $G$. When $G$ is a chordal…

Perfect graphs form one of the distinguished classes of finite simple graphs. In 2006, Chudnovsky, Robertson, Seymour and Thomas proved that a graph is perfect if and only if it has no odd holes and no odd antiholes as induced subgraphs,…

Associated to any hypergraph is a toric ideal encoding the algebraic relations among its edges. We study these ideals and the combinatorics of their minimal generators, and derive general degree bounds for both uniform and non-uniform…

We study the problem when an ideal generated by adjacent 2-minors is the toric ideal of a finite graph.

In this paper, we study toric ideals associated with multichains of posets. It is shown that the comparability graph of a poset is chordal if and only if there exists a quadratic Gr\"obner basis of the toric ideal of the poset. Strong…

In this article, we investigate the strongly robust property of toric ideals associated with weighted oriented graphs. We establish that the toric ideals of a broad class of monomial ideals are strongly robust; this class encompasses the…

Hibi conjectured that if a toric ideal has a quadratic Gr\"obner basis, then the toric ideal has either a lexicographic or a reverse lexicographic quadratic Gr\"obner basis. In this paper, we present a cut ideal of a graph that serves as a…

The edges of any hypergraph parametrize a monomial algebra called the edge subring of the hypergraph. We study presentation ideals of these edge subrings, and describe their generators in terms of balanced walks on hypergraphs. Our results…

Let $G$ be a simple undirected graph on $n$ vertices. Francisco and Van Tuyl have shown that if $G$ is chordal, then $\bigcap_{\{x_i,x_j\}\in E_G} < x_i,x_j>$ is componentwise linear. A natural question that arises is for which $t_{ij}>1$…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and let $I_G$ denote its associated toric ideal in the polynomial ring $R$. For each integer $n\geq 2$, we completely determine all the possible values for the tuple $({\rm reg}(R/I_G), {\rm…

We introduce the concept of matching powers of monomial ideals. Let $I$ be a monomial ideal of $S=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$, with $K$ a field. The $k$th matching power of $I$ is the monomial ideal $I^{[k]}$ generated by the products $u_1\cdots u_k$…

For any graph $G$, assume that $J(G)$ is the cover ideal of $G$. Let $J(G)^{(k)}$ denote the $k$th symbolic power of $J(G)$. We characterize all graphs $G$ with the property that $J(G)^{(k)}$ has a linear resolution for some (equivalently,…

We use the correspondence between hypergraphs and their associated edge ideals to study the minimal graded free resolution of squarefree monomial ideals. The theme of this paper is to understand how the combinatorial structure of a…

We propose an effective algorithm that decides if a prime ideal in a polynomial ring over the complex numbers can be transformed into a toric ideal by a linear automorphism of the ambient space. If this is the case, the algorithm computes…

Let $I_G$ be the toric ideal of a graph $G$. We characterize in graph theoretical terms the primitive, the minimal, the indispensable and the fundamental binomials of the toric ideal $I_G$.

Every normal toric ideal of codimension two is minimally generated by a Grobner basis with squarefree initial monomials. A polynomial time algorithm is presented for checking whether a toric ideal of fixed codimension is normal.
