A square-free monomial ideal $I$ of $k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is said to be an $f$-ideal if the facet complex and non-face complex associated with $I$ have the same $f$-vector. We show that $I$ is an $f$-ideal if and only if its Newton…
There is a one-to-one correspondence between square-free monomial ideals and clutters, which are also known as simple hypergraphs. It was conjectured that unmixed admissible clutters are Cohen-Macaulay. We prove the conjecture for uniform…
We give a structure theorem for Cohen Macaulay monomial ideals of codimension 2, and describe all possible relation matrices of such ideals. In case that the ideal has a linear resolution, the relation matrices can be identified with the…
We provide the sufficient conditions for Rees algebras of modules to be Cohen-Macaulay, which has been proven in the case of Rees algebras of ideals by Johnson-Ulrich and Goto-Nakamura-Nishida. As it turns out the generalization from ideals…
The notion of $f$-ideal is recent and has so far been studied in several papers. In \cite{qfi}, the idea of $f$-ideal is generalized to quasi $f$-ideals, which is much larger class than the class of $f$-ideals. In this paper, we introduce…
This paper studies properties of simplicial complexes for which the m-th symbolic power of the Stanley-Reisner ideal equals to the m-th ordinary power for a given m > 1. The main results are combinatorial characterizations of such complexes…
We classify the ideals of mixed products that are sequentially Cohen-Macaulay.
Imposing a strong condition on the linear order of shellable complexes, we introduce strong shellability. Basic properties, including the existence of dimension-decreasing strong shelling orders, are developed with respect to nonpure…
Let $R$ be a standard graded polynomial ring over a field $k$. The paper focuses on homogeneous ideals $J \subset R$ of codimension $2$ generated by three forms of the same degree $d \geq 2$ that are almost Cohen--Macaulay, i.e., of…
We prove that the p-Quillen complex of a finite solvable group with cyclic derived group is Cohen-Macaulay, if p is an odd prime. If p = 2 we prove a similar conclusion, but there is a discussion to be made.
Let $M$ be a finitely generated module of dimension $d$ over a Noetherian local ring $(R,\m)$ and $\q $ the parameter ideal generated by a system of parameters $\x = (x_1,..., x_d)$ of $M$. For each positive integer $n$, set…
Let $G$ be a finite graph and $I(G)$ its edge ideal. We give a full description of the Stanley--Reisner complex of the polarization of $I(G)^2$, naturally introducing the tools of Stanley--Reisner theory in the study of the algebraic…
Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a weighted oriented graph and let $I(\mathcal{D})$ be its edge ideal. Under a natural condition that the underlying (undirected) graph of $\mathcal{D}$ contains a perfect matching consisting of leaves, we provide…
This paper studies the relationship between Serre's condition $(\R_n)$ and Auslander--Buchweitz's maximal Cohen--Macaulay approximations. It is proved that a Gorenstein local ring satisfies $(\R_n)$ if and only if every maximal…
In the paper we treat Gale diagrams in a combinatorial way. The interpretation allows to describe simplicial complexes which are Alexander dual to boundaries of simplicial polytopes and, more generally, to nerve-complexes of general…
For a group $G$ (of type $F$) acting properly on a coarse Poincar\'{e} duality space $X$, Kapovich-Kleiner introduced a coarse version of Alexander duality between $G$ and its complement in $X$. More precisely, the cohomology of $G$ with…
Buchweitz related the singularity category of a (strongly) Gorenstein ring and the stable category of maximal Cohen-Macaulay modules by a triangle equivalence. We phrase his result in a relative categorical setting based on N-complexes…
By Auslander's algebraic McKay correspondence, the stable category of Cohen-Macaulay modules over a simple singularity is equivalent to the $1$-cluster category of the path algebra of a Dynkin quiver (i.e. the orbit category of the derived…
We give conjectures on the possible graded Betti numbers of Cohen-Macaulay modules up to multiplication by positive rational numbers. The idea is that the Betti diagrams should be non-negative linear combinations of pure diagrams. The…
By a theorem of Roberts, the integral closure of a regular local ring in a finite abelian extension of its fraction field is Cohen-Macaulay, provided that the degree of the extension is coprime to the characteristic of the residue field. We…
