Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$. We show that if $G$ is a connected graph with a basic $5$-cycle $C$, then $G$ is a sequentially Cohen-Macaulay graph if and only if there exists a shedding…
In this paper we study simplicial complexes as higher dimensional graphs in order to produce algebraic statements about their facet ideals. We introduce a large class of square-free monomial ideals with Cohen-Macaulay quotients, and a…
We characterize Cohen-Macaulay posets of dimension two; they are precisely the shellable and strongly connected posets of dimension two. We also give a combinatorial description of these posets. Using the fact that co-comparability graph of…
Let $I(G_{\mathbf{w}})$ be the edge ideal of an edge-weighted graph $(G,\mathbf{w})$. We prove that $I(G_{\mathbf{w}})$ is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay for all weight functions $w$ if and only if $G$ is a Woodroofe graph.
In this paper we consider bi-Cohen-Macaulay graphs, and give a complete classification of such graphs in the case they are bipartite or chordal. General bi-Cohen-Macaulay graphs are classified up to separation. The inseparable…
We generalize the results of Kahn about a correspondence between Cohen-Macaulay modules and vector bundles to non-commutative surface singularities. As an application, we give examples of non-commutative surface singularities which are not…
For each $t \ge 1$ let $W_t$ denote the class of graphs other than stars that have diameter $2$ and contain neither a triangle nor a $K_{2,t}$. The famous Hoffman--Singleton Theorem implies that $W_2$ is finite. Recently Wood suggested the…
We describe combinatorially the Cohen-Macaulay type of edge-weighted r-path suspensions of edge-weighted graphs for an arbitrary positive integer r. The computation of the Cohen-Macaulay type of edge-weighted suspensions of edge-weighted…
In this paper, we characterize the Cohen-Macaulayness of the second power $I(G_\omega)^2$ of the weighted edge ideal $I(G_\omega)$ when the underlying graph $G$ is a very well-covered graph. We also characterize the Cohen-Macaulayness of…
Monomial ideals corresponding to strong quasi-n-partite graphs are considered. Some algebraic and combinatorial properties of generalized graph ideals of a strong quasi-n-partite graph are studied. Furthermore, we show that the edge ideal…
Let $S = K[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $K$. Let $I(G) \subseteq S$ denote the edge ideal of a graph $G$. We show that the $\ell$th symbolic power $I(G)^{(\ell)}$ is a Cohen-Macaulay ideal (i.e., $S/I(G)^{(\ell)}$ is…
A convex geometric graph is a graph whose vertices are the corners of a convex polygon P in the plane and whose edges are boundary edges and diagonals of the polygon. It is called triangulation-free if its non-boundary edges do not contain…
We give an exact characterization of 3-colorability of triangle-free graphs drawn in the torus, in the form of 186 "templates" (graphs with certain faces filled by arbitrary quadrangulations) such that a graph from this class is not…
Cai et al.\ proved that a toroidal graph $G$ without $6$-cycles is $5$-choosable, and proposed the conjecture that $\textsf{ch}(G) = 5$ if and only if $G$ contains a $K_{5}$ [J. Graph Theory 65 (2010) 1--15], where $\textsf{ch}(G)$ is the…
For several important classes of manifolds acted on by the torus, the information about the action can be encoded combinatorially by a regular n-valent graph with vector labels on its edges, which we refer to as the torus graph. By analogy…
Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices, $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $\mathbb{K}$ and $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$. For every collection $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs with…
For every $n \geq 5$, we show that the Kneser graph of triangulations of a convex $n$-gon contains a Hamiltonian cycle.
Binomial edge ideals IG of a graph G were introduced by [4]. They found some classes of graphs G with the property that IG is a Cohen-Macaulay ideal. This might happen only for few classes of graphs. A certain generalization of being…
We give an example of two non isomorphic coordinate rings of a special kind of convex polyominoes whose Cohen-Macaulay types are generalized Fuss-Catalan numbers. We further provide a determinantal formula for these numbers.
In this paper, we study the Cohen-Macaulayness of non-affine normal semigroups in $\mathbb{Z}^n$. We do this by establishing the following four statements each of independent interest: 1) a Lazard type result on $I$-supported elements of…
