We determine which simplicial complexes have the maximum or minimum sum of Betti numbers and sum of bigraded Betti numbers with a given number of vertices in each dimension.

The Betti numbers are fundamental topological quantities that describe the k-dimensional connectivity of an object: B_0 is the number of connected components and B_k effectively counts the number of k-dimensional holes. Although they are…

Let S be a polynomial ring and R=S/I where I is a graded ideal of S. The Multiplicity Conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan which was recently proved using the Boij-Soederberg theory states that the multiplicity of R is bounded above…

In 2017, Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy defined the van der Waerden complex ${\tt vdW}(n,k)$ to be the simplicial complex whose facets correspond to all the arithmetic sequences on the set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ of a fixed length $k$. To…

Let X be a smooth projective variety with torsion-free Picard group. We introduce complexes of vector spaces whose homology determines the structure of the minimal free resolution of the Cox ring of X over the polynomial ring and show how…

The Boij-S\"oderberg characterization decomposes a Betti table into a unique positive integral linear combination of pure diagrams. Given a module with a pure resolution, we describe explicit formulae for computing the decomposition of the…

Suppose X is any finite complex with vanishing L^2 Betti number. We prove upper bounds on the Betti numbers for regular coverings of X, sublinear in the order of covering. The bounds are sensitive to the Novikov-Shubin invariants of X, and…

It is shown that the h-vectors of Stanley-Reisner rings of three classes of matroids are pure O-sequences. The classes are (a) matroids that are truncations of other matroids, or more generally of Cohen-Macaulay complexes, (b) matroids…

In this paper we study the Betti numbers of Stanley-Reisner ideals generated in degree 2. We show that the first six Betti numbers do not depend on the characteristic of the ground field. We also show that, if the number of variables $n$ is…

We introduce a new model of random $d$-dimensional simplicial complexes, for $d\geq 2$, whose $(d-1)$-cells have bounded degrees. We show that with high probability, complexes sampled according to this model are coboundary expanders. The…

We produce a family of complexes called trimming complexes and explore applications. We study how trimming complexes can be used to deduce the Betti table for the minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by subsets of a generating set…

Given an infinite field $\mathbb{k}$ and a simplicial complex $\Delta$, a common theme in studying the $f$- and $h$-vectors of $\Delta$ has been the consideration of the Hilbert series of the Stanley--Reisner ring $\mathbb{k}[\Delta]$…

We prove that the height of any algebraic computation tree for deciding membership in a semialgebraic set is bounded from below (up to a multiplicative constant) by the logarithm of m-th Betti number (with respect to singular homology) of…

We express the v-number of the Stanley-Reisner ideal in terms of its Alexander dual complex and prove that the v-number of a cover ideal is just two less than the initial degree of the its syzygy module. We give some relation between the…

Let $I$ be a perfect ideal of height 3 in a Gorenstein local ring $R$. Let $\mathbb{F}$ be the minimal free resolution of $I$. A sequence of linear maps, which generalize the multiplicative structure of $\mathbb{F}$, can be defined using…

We construct small resolutions of the moduli space $\overline{Q}_n$ of stable scaled $n$-marked lines of Ziltener and Ma'u--Woodward and of the moduli space $\overline{P}_n$ of stable $n$-marked ${\mathbb G}_a$-rational trees introduced in…

Let $Q\in \K[x_1,...,x_n] = S$ be a homogeneous polynomial of degree $d$. The freeness of the logarithmic derivation module, $D(Q)$, and of its natural generalizations, has been widely studied. In the free case, $D(Q) \simeq…

We show that the number of marked minimal models of an n-dimensional smooth complex projective variety of general type can be bounded in terms of its volume, and, if n=3, also in terms of its Betti numbers. For an n-dimensional projective…

We prove graded bounds on the individual Betti numbers of affine and projective complex varieties. In particular, we give for each $p,d,r$, explicit bounds on the $p$-th Betti numbers of affine and projective subvarieties of $\mathrm{C}^k$,…

Let $R=k[x_1, ..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring and let $I\subset R$ be a graded ideal. In \cite{R}, R\"{o}mer asked whether under the Cohen-Macaulay assumption the $i$-th Betti number $\beta_{i}(R/I)$ can be bounded above by a function of…
