P. Erd\H{o}s conjectured in 1962 that on the ring $\mathbb{Z}$, every set of $n$ congruence classes in $\mathbb{Z}$ that covers the first $2^n$ positive integers also covers the ring $\mathbb{Z}$. This conjecture was first confirmed in 1970…

A \emph{congruence} on $\mathbb{N}^n$ is an equivalence relation on $\mathbb{N}^n$ that is compatible with the additive structure. If $\Bbbk$ is a field, and $I$ is a \emph{binomial ideal} in $\Bbbk[X_1,\dots,X_n]$ (that is, an ideal…

Let I denote a homogeneous R_+-primary ideal in a two-dimensional normal standard-graded domain over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We show that a homogeneous element f belongs to the solid closure I^* if and only if…

Eisenbud and Harris conjectured in 1982 that an algebraic curve of high genus lies on a surface of low degree (which they proved for curves of very large degree). They observed constraints on the Hilbert function of a general hyperplane…

We determine a sharp lower bound for the Hilbert function in degree $d$ of a monomial algebra failing the weak Lefschetz property over a polynomial ring with $n$ variables and generated in degree $d$, for any $d\geq 2$ and $n\geq 3$. We…

The Ehrhart ring of the edge polytope $\mathcal{P}_G$ for a connected simple graph $G$ is known to coincide with the edge ring of the same graph if $G$ satisfies the odd cycle condition. This paper gives for a graph which does not satisfy…

A homogeneous ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring $S$ is said to have the Rees property if, for any homogeneous ideal $J \subset S $ which contains $I$, the number of generators of $J$ is smaller than or equal to that of $I$. A homogeneous ideal…

The classical Heawood inequality states that if the complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices is embeddable in the sphere with $g$ handles, then $g \ge\dfrac{(n-3)(n-4)}{12}$. A higher-dimensional analogue of the Heawood inequality is the…
