Recently several authors have proved results on Ehrhart series of free sums of rational polytopes. In this note we treat these results from an algebraic viewpoint. Instead of attacking combinatorial statements directly, we derive them from…
In this expositional paper, we discuss commutative algebra -- a study inspired by the properties of integers, rational numbers, and real numbers. In particular, we investigate rings and ideals, and their various properties. After, we…
A minor is principal means it is defined by the same row and column indices. Let $X$ be a square generic matrix, $K[X]$ the polynomial ring in entries of $X$, over an algebraically closed field, $K$. For fixed $t\leq n$, let $\mathfrak P_t$…
We give a new proof of Hilbert's Syzygy Theorem for monomial ideals. In addition, we prove the following. If S=k[x_1,...,x_n] is a polynomial ring over a field, M is a squarefree monomial ideal in S, and each minimal generator of M has…
A commutative ring R has finite rank r, if each ideal of R is generated at most by r elements. A commutative ring R has the r-generator property, if each finitely generated ideal of R can be generated by r elements. Such rings are closely…
Motivated by Carmichael numbers, we say that a finite ring $R$ is a Carmichael ring if $a^{|R|}=a$ for any $a \in R$. We then call an ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ as a Carmichael ideal if $R/I$ is a Carmichael ring, and a Carmichael element of…
It is a fundamental result in commutative algebra and invariant theory that a finitely generated graded module over a commutative finitely generated graded algebra has rational Hilbert series, and consequently the Hilbert series of the…
This extended abstract gives a construction for lifting a Gr\"obner basis algorithm for an ideal in a polynomial ring over a commutative ring R under the condition that R also admits a Gr\"obner basis for every ideal in R.
Let $(A,\frak m)$ be an excellent normal local ring with algebraically closed residue class field. Given integrally closed $\frak m$-primary ideals $I\supset J$, we show that there is a composition series between $I$ and $J$, by integrally…
A chopped ideal is obtained from a homogeneous ideal by considering only the generators of a fixed degree. We investigate cases in which the chopped ideal defines the same finite set of points as the original one-dimensional ideal. The…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m},k)$ be a Noetherian local ring and let $M$ be a finitely generated $R$-module. The main focus of this paper is to give positive answers for some long-standing homological conjectures over the idealization ring $R\ltimes…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring, $I$ an ideal, $M$ and $N$ finitely generated $R$-modules. Assume $V(I)\cap Supp(M)\cap Supp(N)$ consists of finitely many maximal ideals and let ${\l}(\e^i(N/I^nN,M))$ denote the length of…
Suppose $A=k[X_1, X_2, \ldots, X_n]$ is a polynomial ring over a field $k$ and $I$ is an ideal in $A$. Then M. P. Murthy conjectured that $\mu(I)=\mu(I/I^2)$, where $\mu$ denotes the minimal number of generators. Recently, Fasel \cite{F}…
It is shown that every Leavitt path algebra L of an arbitrary directed graph E over a field K is an arithmetical ring, that is, the two-sided ideals of L form a distributive lattice. It is also shown that L is a multiplication ring, that…
In this paper, we introduce standard multigradings on Hibi rings, which are algebras arising from posets. We show that any standard multigrading on a Hibi ring that makes its defining ideal (called the Hibi ideal) homogeneous is induced by…
In this paper, we prove that if $P$ is a homogeneous prime ideal inside a standard graded polynomial ring $S$ with $\dim(S/P)=d$, and for $s \leq d$, adjoining $s$ general linear forms to the prime ideal changes the $(d-s)$-th Hilbert…
We study an inductive method of computing initial ideals and Gr\"obner bases for families of ideals in a polynomial ring. This method starts from a given set of pairs $(I,J)$ where $I$ is any ideal and $J$ is a monomial ideal contained in…
Let $S={\Bbb K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ denote a polynomial ring over a field $\Bbb K$. Given a monomial ideal $I$ and a finitely generated multigraded $M$ over $S$, we follow Herzog's method to construct a multigraded free $S$-resolution of $M/IM$…
For a commutative ring R with an ideal I, generated by a finite regular sequence, we construct differential graded algebras which provide R-free resolutions of I^s and of R/I^s for s>0 and which generalise the Koszul resolution. We derive…
Let I = (F_1,...,F_r) be a homogeneous ideal of R = k[x_0,...,x_n] generated by a regular sequence of type (d_1,...,d_r). We give an elementary proof for an explicit description of the graded Betti numbers of I^s for any s \geq 1. These…
