Suppose that $X$ is a projective variety over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p > 0$. Further suppose that $L$ is an ample (or more generally in some sense positive) divisor. We study a natural linear system in $|K_X + L|$.…

We display a new family of prime ideals with unbounded minimal number of generators in a three-dimensional power series ring over a field of characteristic zero. These primes are obtained as the kernel of a quasi-monomial algebra…

A real univariate polynomial of degree $n$ is called hyperbolic if all of its $n$ roots are on the real line. Such polynomials appear quite naturally in different applications, for example, in combinatorics and optimization. The focus of…

Let $I$ be an ideal of the polynomial ring $A[x]=A[x_1,...,x_n]$ over the commutative, noetherian ring $A$. Geometrically $I$ defines a family of affine schemes over $\Spec(A)$: For $\p\in\Spec(A)$, the fibre over $\p$ is the closed…

In this paper we present an extension of the removal lemma to integer linear systems over abelian groups. We prove that, if the $k$--determinantal of an integer $(k\times m)$ matrix $A$ is coprime with the order $n$ of a group $G$ and the…

Frankl's conjecture, also known as the union-closed sets conjecture, can be equivalently expressed in terms of intersection-closed set families by considering the complements of sets. It posits that any family of sets closed under…

Let $f_{1}, \ldots, f_{k}$ be polynomials defining an algebraic set in affine $n$-space over a finite field. Suppose $k>n$. We prove that there exists a system of polynomials $g_{1}, \ldots, g_{n}$, each being a linear combination with…

Let $I$ be a square-free monomial ideal in $R = k[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$, and consider the sets of associated primes ${\rm Ass}(I^s)$ for all integers $s \geq 1$. Although it is known that the sets of associated primes of powers of $I$ eventually…

Let $J\subset S=K[x_0,...,x_n]$ be a monomial strongly stable ideal. The collection $\Mf(J)$ of the homogeneous polynomial ideals $I$, such that the monomials outside $J$ form a $K$-vector basis of $S/I$, is called a {\em $J$-marked…

In this paper, we study ideals spanned by polynomials or overconvergent series in a Tate algebra. With state-of-the-art algorithms for computing Tate Gr{\"o}bner bases, even if the input is polynomials, the size of the output grows with the…

We consider a family of heights defined by the $L_p$ norms of polynomials with respect to the equilibrium measure of a lemniscate for $0 \le p \le \infty$, where $p=0$ corresponds to the geometric mean (the generalized Mahler measure) and…

We start from a parametrized system of $d$ generalized polynomial equations (with real exponents) for $d$ positive variables, involving $n$ generalized monomials with $n$ positive parameters. Existence and uniqueness of a solution for all…

In this paper, we show how to apply a theorem by L\^e D.T. and the author about linear families of curves on normal surface singularities to get new results in this area. The main concept used is a specific definition of {\em general…

In this article we first compare the set of elements in the socle of an ideal of a polynomial algebra $K[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$ over a field $K$ that are not in the ideal itself and Macaulay's inverse systems of such polynomial algebras in a…

A subspace of an algebra with involution is called a Lie skew-ideal if it is closed under Lie products with skew-symmetric elements. Lie skew-ideals are classified in central simple algebras with involution (there are eight of them for…

We determine the set of polynomials $f(x)\in k[x]$, where $k$ is a finite field, such that the local system on $\mathbb G_m^2$ which parametrizes the family of exponential sums $(s,t)\mapsto\sum_{x\in k}\psi(sf(x)+tx)$ has finite monodromy,…

An ideal of polynomials is symmetric if it is closed under permutations of variables. We relate general symmetric ideals to the so called Specht ideals generated by all Specht polynomials of a given shape. We show a connection between the…

We use linear algebraic methods to obtain general results about linear operators on a space of polynomials that we apply to the operators associated with a polynomial sequence by the monomiality property. We show that all such operators are…

The theory of standard bases in polynomial rings with coefficients in a ring R with respect to local orderings is developed. R is a commutative Noetherian ring with 1 and we assume that linear equations are solvable in R.
