The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity $\reg(I)$ is one of the most important invariants of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring. A basic question is how the regularity behaves with respect to taking powers of ideals. It is known that…

Assume that $G$ is a graph with cover ideal $J(G)$. For every integer $k\geq 1$, we denote the $k$-th symbolic power of $J(G)$ by $J(G)^{(k)}$. We provide a sharp upper bound for the regularity of $J(G)^{(k)}$ in terms of the star packing…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and let $I(G)$ denote its edge ideal. For $q \ge 1$, the $q$-th squarefree power $I(G)^{[q]}$ is generated by squarefree monomials corresponding to matchings of size $q$ in $G$. We denote by…

For any two integers $d,r \geq 1$, we show that there exists an edge ideal $I(G)$ such that the ${\rm reg}\left(R/I(G)\right)$, the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of $R/I(G)$, is $r$, and ${\rm deg} (h_{R/I(G)}(t))$, the degree of the…

We discuss the behavior of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity under certain operations on ideals and modules, like products or powers. In particular, we show that reg(IM) can be larger than reg(M)+reg(I) even when I is an ideal of linear…
