An ideal I in a polynomial ring S has linear powers if all the powers I^k of I have a linear free resolution. We show that the ideal of maximal minors of a sufficiently general matrix with linear entries has linear powers. The required…

Let K denote a field. Given an arbitrary linear subspace V of M_n(K) of codimension lesser than n-1, a classical result states that V generates the K-algebra M_n(K). Here, we strengthen this in three ways: we show that M_n(K) is spanned by…

Let $\k$ be a field, and let $A$ and $B$ be connected $\N$-graded $\k$-algebras. The algebra $A$ is said to be a graded right-free extension of $B$ provided there is a surjective graded algebra morphism $\pi: A \to B$ such that $\ker\pi$ is…

We consider a two-fold problem: on the one hand, the classification of a family of solution-generating techniques in (modified) supergravity and, on the other hand, the classification of a family of canonical transformations of…

Let group generators having finite-dimensional representation be realized as Hermitian linear differential operators without nhomogeneous terms as takes place, for example, for the SO(n) group. Then orresponding group Hamiltonians…

Consider ideals $I$ of the form \[ I=(x_1^2,\dots, x_n^2)+\mathrm{RLex}(x_ix_j) \] where $\mathrm{RLex}(x_ix_j)$ is the ideal generated by all the square-free monomials which are greater than or equal to $x_ix_j$ in the reverse…

We provide a categorical interpretation of a well-known identity from linear algebra as an isomorphism of certain functors between triangulated categories arising from finite dimensional algebras. As a consequence, we deduce that the Serre…

What is the shape of the free resolution of the ideal of a general set of points in P^r? This question is central to the programme of connecting the geometry of point sets in projective space with the structure of the free resolutions of…

Each partition $\lambda = (\lambda_1, \lambda_2, ..., \lambda_n)$ determines a so-called Ferrers tableau or, equivalently, a Ferrers bipartite graph. Its edge ideal, dubbed Ferrers ideal, is a squarefree monomial ideal that is generated by…

Let $X$ be a set of cardinality $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^\omega=\kappa$. We prove that the linear algebra $\mathbb{R}^X$ (or $\mathbb{C}^X$) contains a free linear algebra with $2^\kappa$ generators. Using this, we prove several…

If $k$ is an infinite cardinal, we say a C*-algebra $\mathcal{A}$ is residually less than $k$ dimensional, $R_{<k}D,$ if the family of representations of $\mathcal{A}$ on Hilbert spaces of dimension less than $k$ separates the points of…

This note aims at finding explicit and efficient generation of ideals in subalgebras $R$ of the polynomial ring $S=k[t]$ ($k$ a field) such that $t^{c_0}S \subseteq R$ for some integer $c_0 > 0$. The class of these subalgebras which we call…

Let $K$ be a finitely generated field. We construct an $n$-dimensional linear system $\mathcal{L}$ of hypersurfaces of degree $d$ in $\mathbb{P}^n$ defined over $K$ such that each member of $\mathcal{L}$ defined over $K$ is smooth, under…

We classify all subgroups of $SO(3)$ that are generated by two elements, each a rotation of finite order, about axes separated by an angle that is a rational multiple of $\pi$. In all cases we give a presentation of the subgroup. In most…

The relation space of a hyperplane arrangement is the vector space of all linear dependencies among the defining forms of the hyperplanes in the arrangement. In this paper, we study the relationship between the relation space and the…

We provide an algorithm that, given any order $O$ in a quaternion algebra over a global field, computes representatives of all right equivalence classes of right $O$-ideals, including the non-invertible ones. The theory is developed for a…

We show that the $n-$th symmetric product of an affine scheme $X=\mathrm{Spec} A$ over a characteristic zero field is isomorphic as a scheme to the quotient by the general linear group of the scheme parameterizing $n-$dimensional linear…

In this paper we show that the agglomeration of rows or columns of a contingency table with a hierarchical clustering algorithm yields statistical models defined through toric ideals. In particular, starting from the classical independence…

Let G be a finite group and let M be a G-manifold. We introduce the concept of generalized orbifold invariants of M/G associated to an arbitrary group Gamma, an arbitrary Gamma-set, and an arbitrary covering space of a connected manifold…

A theorem of O. Forster says that if $R$ is a noetherian ring of Krull dimension $d$, then any projective $R$-module of rank $n$ can be generated by $d+n$ elements. S. Chase and R. Swan subsequently showed that this bound is sharp: there…
