Let $J\subset I$ be ideals in a formally equidimensional local ring with $\lambda(I/J)<\infty.$ Rees proved that for all $n\gg0$, $\lambda(I^n/J^n)$ is a polynomial $P(I/J)(X)$ in $n$ of degree at most dim $R$ and $J$ is a reduction of $I$…
Let $E$ be a module of projective dimension one over $R=k[x_1,\ldots,x_d]$. If $E$ is presented by a matrix $\varphi$ with linear entries and the number of generators of $E$ is bounded locally up to codimension $d-1$, the Rees ring…
We study the defining equations of the Rees algebra of square-free monomial ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. We determine that when an ideal $I$ is generated by $n$ square-free monomials of the same degree then $I$ has relation…
Constraints are given on the depth of diagonal subalgebras in generalized triangular matrix algebras. The depth of the top subalgebra B = A /rad A in a finite, connected, acyclic quiver algebra A over an algebraically closed field K is then…
When $R$ is a Noetherian ring and we have a family of ideals in which every ideal contains at least one nonzero divisor, then it is already known that the defining ideal of the multi-Rees algebra of these ideals is equal to a saturated…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Ratliff-Rush closure of modules and explore whether the condition of the Ratliff-Rush closure coincides with the integral closure. The main result characterizes the condition in terms of the…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d\geq 3$ and $I$ an integrally closed $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal. We establish bounds for the third Hilbert coefficient $e_3(I)$ in terms of the lower Hilbert…
Intuitively, the filter dimension of an algebra or a module measures how `close' standard filtrations of the algebra or the module are. In particular, for a simple algebra it also measures the growth of how `fast' one can prove that the…
We introduce and study vertex cover algebras of weighted simplicial complexes. These algebras are special classes of symbolic Rees algebras. We show that symbolic Rees algebras of monomial ideals are finitely generated and that such an…
We study almost complete intersections ideals whose Rees algebras are extremal in the sense that some of their fundamental metrics---depth or relation type---have maximal or minimal values in the class. The focus is on those ideals that…
We give formulas and effective sharp bounds for the degree of multi-graded rational maps and provide some effective and computable criteria for birationality in terms of their algebraic and geometric properties. We also extend the Jacobian…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a two-dimensional regular local ring with infinite residue class field. Then the Rees algebra $\mathcal{R} (I)= \bigoplus_{n \ge 0}I^n$ of $I$ is an almost Gorenstein graded ring in the sense of…
Let $I$ be the edge ideal of a cycle of length $n \ge 5$ over a polynomial ring $S = \mathrm{k}[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We prove that for $2 \le t < \lceil (n+1)/2 \rceil$, $$\operatorname{depth} (S/I^t) = \lceil \frac{n -t + 1}{3} \rceil.$$ When…
This paper investigates the relationship between multiplicities and the degree sequence of ideals in graded algebras, gives multiplicity equations of graded rings via the degree sequence of ideals, and characterizes mixed multiplicities and…
Our aim in this paper is to obtain a formula for the multiplicity of the maximal homogeneous ideal of the multi-graded extended Rees algebra. This formula generalizes the one obtained in [8] by Katz and Verma for the ordinary extended Rees…
The goal of this paper is to study the Rees algebra $\mathfrak{R}(I)$and the special fiber ring $\mathfrak{F}(I)$ for a family of ideals. Let $R=\mathbb{K}[x_1, \ldots, x_d]$ with $d\geq 4$ be a polynomial ring with homogeneous maximal…
Consider a rational projective plane curve C parameterized by three homogeneous forms h1,h2,h3 of the same degree d in the polynomial ring R=k[x,y] over the field k. Extracting a common factor, we may harmlessly assume that the ideal…
One proves a far-reaching upper bound for the degree of a generically finite rational map between projective varieties over a base field of arbitrary characteristic. The bound is expressed as a product of certain degrees that appear…
Using linear algebra methods we study certain algebraic properties of monomial rings and matroids. Let I be a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring over an arbitrary field. If the Rees cone of I is quasi-ideal, we express the normalization of…
