Putinar's Positivstellensatz is a central theorem in real algebraic geometry. It states the following: If you have a set $S= \{ x \in R^n \ | \ g_1 (x) \geq 0, ... , g_m(x) \geq 0\}$ described by some real polynomials $g_i$, then every real…

We study ideals which are generated by monomials of degree $d$ in the polynomial ring in $n$ variables and which satisfy certain numerical side conditions regarding their exponents. Typical examples of such ideals are the ideals of Veronese…

We give a necessary condition for the existence of a path of n irreducible morphisms between indecomposable modules whose composition lies in the (n + 1)-power of the radical. In order to do that, we consider the general criterion given by…

Blockwise determinantal ideals are those generated by the union of all the minors of specified sizes in certain blocks of a generic matrix, and they are the natural generalization of many existing determinantal ideals like the Schubert and…

We show that there is a defining equation of degree at most $\mathsf{poly}(n)$ for the (Zariski closure of the) set of the non-rigid matrices: that is, we show that for every large enough field $\mathbb{F}$, there is a non-zero…

Nowadays, the notion of semi-regular sequences, originally proposed by Fr\"oberg, becomes very important not only in Mathematics, but also in Information Science, in particular Cryptology. For example, it is highly expected that randomly…

Let $P_k$ be the graded polynomial algebra $\mathbb F_2[x_1,x_2,\ldots ,x_k]$ over the prime field of two elements, $\mathbb F_2$, with the degree of each $x_i$ being 1. We study the hit problem, set up by Frank Peterson, of finding a…

In this paper we introduce a binomial ideal derived from a binary linear code. We present some applications of a Gr\"obner basis of this ideal with respect to a total degree ordering. In the first application we give a decoding method for…

For each $n$, let RD$(n)$ denote the minimum $d$ for which there exists a formula for the general polynomial of degree $n$ in algebraic functions of at most $d$ variables. In this paper, we recover an algorithm of Sylvester for determining…

Let $k$ be a unital commutative ring. In this paper, we study polynomial functors from the category of finitely generated free nilpotent groups to the category of $k$-modules, focusing on comparisons across different nilpotency classes and…

Using recent work by Erman-Sam-Snowden, we show that finitely generated ideals in the ring of bounded-degree formal power series in infinitely many variables have finitely generated Gr\"obner bases relative to the graded reverse…

Many systems of interest in cryptography consist of equations of the same degree. Under the assumption that the degree of regularity is finite, we prove upper bounds on the degree of regularity of a system of equations of the same degree,…

If a linear differential operator with rational function coefficients is reducible, its factors may have coefficients with numerators and denominatorsof very high degree. When the base field is $\mathbb C$, we give a completely explicit…

A graph $A$ is "apex" if $A-z$ is planar for some vertex $z\in V(A)$. Eppstein [Algorithmica, 2000] showed that for a minor-closed class $\mathcal{G}$, the graphs in $\mathcal{G}$ with bounded radius have bounded treewidth if and only if…

We introduce the theory of monoidal Groebner bases, a concept which generalizes the familiar notion in a polynomial ring and allows for a description of Groebner bases of ideals that are stable under the action of a monoid. The main…

Let $R$ be a polynomial or power series ring over a field $k$. We study the length of local cohomology modules $H^j_I(R)$ in the category of $D$-modules and $F$-modules. We show that the $D$-module length of $H^j_I(R)$ is bounded by a…

The Zariski closure of the boundary of the set of matrices of nonnegative rank at most 3 is reducible. We give a minimal generating set for the ideal of each irreducible component. In fact, this generating set is a Grobner basis with…

The Galois ring $GR(p^r,m)$ of characteristic $p^r$ and cardinality $p^{rm}$, where $p$ is a prime and $r,m \ge 1$ are integers, is a Galois extension of the residue class ring $Z_{p^r}$ by a root $\omega$ of a monic basic irreducible…

We study structured optimization problems with polynomial objective function and polynomial equality constraints. The structure comes from a multi-grading on the polynomial ring in several variables. For fixed multi-degrees we determine the…

Let K be a field and let S = K[x_1, ..., x_n] be a polynomial ring. Consider a homogenous ideal I in S. Let t_i denote reg(Tor_i (S/I, K)), the maximal degree of an ith syzygy of S/I. We prove bounds on the numbers t_i for i > n/2 purely in…
