We determine the codimension of the Betti strata of the family G(H) parametrizing graded Artinian quotients A of the polynomial ring R in two variables, having Hilbert function H. The Betti stratum G(B,H) parametrizes all such quotients…
Let $L$ be a finite dimensional Lie algebra over a field of characteristic $0$. Then by the original Levi theorem, $L = B \oplus R$ where $R$ is the solvable radical and $B$ is some maximal semisimple subalgebra. We prove that if $L$ is an…
This paper is concerned with the geometry of the Gorenstein locus of the Hilbert scheme of $14$ points on $\mathbb{A}^6$. This scheme has two components: the smoothable one and an exceptional one. We prove that the latter is smooth and…
We give a minimal system of 476 generators (resp. 510 generators) for the algebra of SL(2,C)-covariant polynomials on binary forms of degree 9 (resp. degree 10). These results were only known as conjectures so far. The computations rely on…
An SI-sequence is a finite sequence of positive integers which is symmetric, unimodal and satisfies a certain growth condition. These are known to correspond precisely to the possible Hilbert functions of Artinian Gorenstein algebras with…
We investigate the standard generalized Gorenstein algebras of homological dimension three, giving a structure theorem for their resolutions. Moreover in many cases we are able to give a complete description of their graded Betti numbers.
Gorenstein homological algebra is a kind of relative homological algebra which has been developed to a high level since more than four decades. In this report we review the basic theory of Gorenstein homological algebra of artin algebras.…
Fix a codimension $r$ and a socle-vector $s$. Is there an (entry by entry) maximal $h$-vector $h$ among the $h$-vectors of all the (standard graded artinian) algebras having data $(r,s)$? Extending a definition of Iarrobino, if such an $h$…
We consider a formula of Stanley that expresses the Ehrhart generating polynomial of a polyhedral complex in terms of the h-polynomials of toric varieties. We prove that the coefficients in this expression are all non-negative and show that…
We study Jordan types of linear forms for graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras having arbitrary codimension. We introduce rank matrices of linear forms for such algebras that represent the ranks of multiplication maps in various degrees. We…
Let $X$ be a normal arithmetically Gorenstein scheme in ${\mathbb P}^n$. We give a criterion for all codimension two ACM subschemes of $X$ to be in the same Gorenstein biliaison class on $X$, in terms of the category of ACM sheaves on $X$.…
Roughly ten years ago, the following "Gorenstein Interval Conjecture" (GIC) was proposed: Whenever $(1,h_1,\dots,h_i,\dots,h_{e-i},\dots,h_{e-1},1)$ and $(1,h_1,\dots,h_i+\alpha,\dots,h_{e-i}+\alpha,\dots,h_{e-1},1)$ are both Gorenstein…

Let $C$ be a Gorenstein non complete intersection monomial curve in the 4-dimensional affine space. In this paper we study the minimal number of generators of the tangent cone of $C$. Special attention will be paid to the case where $C$ has…
We show that the h-vector of a ladder determinantal ring cogenerated by M=[u_1|v_1] is log-concave. Thus we prove an instance of a conjecture of Stanley, resp. Conca and Herzog
We prove that for every graph $H$, if a graph $G$ has no (odd) $H$ minor, then its vertex set $V(G)$ can be partitioned into three sets $X_1$, $X_2$, $X_3$ such that for each~$i$, the subgraph induced on $X_i$ has no component of size…

In this paper, we give a description of the self-injective dimension of string algebras and obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a string algebra to be Gorenstein.
