Generalizing polynomials previously studied in the context of linear codes, we define weight polynomials and an enumerator for a matroid $M$. Our main result is that these polynomials are determined by Betti numbers associated with graded…
Recently, I defined a squarefree module over a polynomial ring $S = k[x_1, >..., x_n]$ generalizing the Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta] = S/I_\Delta$ of a simplicial complex $\Delta \subset 2^{1, ..., n}$. In this paper, from a squarefree…
In this work we present an algorithm to construct sparse-paving matroids over finite set $S$. From this algorithm we derive some useful bounds on the cardinality of the set of circuits of any Sparse-Paving matroids which allow us to prove…
We study a matrix-based notion of matroid representation over local commutative rings obtained by replacing linear independence with modular independence. This construction always defines an independence system, though not necessarily a…
We study the symbolic powers of the Stanley-Reisner ideal $I_{B_n}$ of a bipyramid $B_n$ over a $n-$gon $Q_n$. Using a combinatorial approach, based on analysis of subtrees in $Q_n$ we compute the Waldschmidt constant of $I_{B_n}$.
We study the combinatorics of modular flats of oriented matroids and the topological consequences for their Salvetti complexes. We show that the natural map to the localized Salvetti complex at a modular flat of corank one is what we call a…
We introduce the minor-closed, dual-closed class of multi-path matroids. We give a polynomial-time algorithm for computing the Tutte polynomial of a multi-path matroid, we describe their basis activities, and we prove some basic structural…
We describe the structure of the symbolic powers $I^{(\ell)}$ of the Stanley-Reisner ideals, and cover ideals, $I$, of matroids. We (a) prove a structure theorem describing a minimal generating set for every $I^{(\ell)}$; (b) describe the…
A ringoid is a set with two binary operations that are linked by the distributive laws. We study special classes of ringoids that are congruence-simple or ideal-simple. In particular, we examine generalised parasemifields and…
The goal of the present paper is the study of some algebraic invariants of Stanley-Reisner rings of Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes of dimension $d - 1$. We prove that the inequality $d \leq \mathrm{reg}(\Delta) \cdot…
We introduce a class of polytopes that we call chainlink polytopes and which allow us to construct infinite families of pairs of non isomorphic rational polytopes with the same Ehrhart quasi-polynomial. Our construction is based on circular…
We study Stanley decompositions and show that Stanley's conjecture on Stanley decompositions implies his conjecture on partitionable Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes. We also prove these conjectures for all Cohen-Macaulay monomial ideals…
We extend the classical notion of standardly stratified $k$-algebra (stated for finite dimensional $k$-algebras) to the more general class of rings, possibly without $1,$ with enough idempotents. We show that many of the fundamental…
It is known that the numerical invariants Betti numbers and Bass numbers are worthwhile tools for decoding a large amount of information about modules over commutative rings. We highlight this fact, further, by establishing some criteria…
In this paper, we study the quasi-Einstein and generalized quasi-Einstein warped products with a semi-symmetric non-metric connection. We give the expressions of the Ricci tensors and scalar curvatures for the bases and fibres. In some…
In this paper, we propose a new type of matroids, namely covering matroids, and investigate the connections with the second type of covering-based rough sets and some existing special matroids. Firstly, as an extension of partitions,…
We use the geometry of the stellahedral toric variety to study matroids. We identify the valuative group of matroids with the cohomology ring of the stellahedral toric variety, and show that valuative, homological, and numerical equivalence…
The algebraic Cuntz-Pimsner rings are naturally $\mathbb{Z}$-graded rings that generalize both Leavitt path algebras and unperforated $\mathbb{Z}$-graded Steinberg algebras. We classify strongly, epsilon-strongly and nearly epsilon-strongly…
We determine simplicity criteria in characteristics 0 and $p$ for a ubiquitous class of iterated skew polynomial rings in two indeterminates over a base ring. One obstruction to simplicity is the possible existence of a canonical normal…
Over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$, the evaluation of skew polynomials is intimately related to the evaluation of linearized polynomials. This connection allows one to relate the concept of polynomial independence defined for skew…
