In this paper we introduce a new class of polyominoes, called closed paths, and we study the primality of their associated ideal. Inspired by an existing conjecture that characterizes the primality of a polyomino ideal by nonexistence of…
In this work, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition on a polyomino ideal for having the set of inner 2-minors as degree reverse lexicographic Gr\"obner basis, due to combinatorial properties of the polyomino itself. Moreover, we…
It is known that the polyomino ideal of a simple polyomino is a prime ideal. A new class of nonsimple polyominoes $\Pc$ for which the polyomino ideal $I_{\Pc}$ is a prime ideal will be presented.
In this paper we introduce some monomial orders for the class of closed path polyominoes and we prove that the set of the generators of the polyomino ideal attached to a closed path forms the reduced Gr\"obner basis with respect to these…
In this article, we study the primary decomposition of some binomial ideals. In particular, we introduce the concept of polyocollection, a combinatorial object that generalizes the definitions of collection of cells and polyomino, that can…
In this paper we study the primality of weakly connected collections of cells, showing that the ideal generated by inner 2-minors attached to a weakly connected and simple collection of cells is the toric ideal of the edge ring of a weakly…
Polyominoes are a subset of polygons which can be constructed from integer-length squares fused at their edges. A system of polygons P is interlocked if no subset of the polygons in P can be removed arbitrarily far away from the rest. It is…
Polyomino ideals, defined as the ideals generated by the inner $2$-minors of a polyomino, are a class of binomial ideals whose algebraic properties are closely related to the combinatorial structure of the underlying polyomino. We provide a…
We establish the existence of infinitely many \emph{polynomial} progressions in the primes; more precisely, given any integer-valued polynomials $P_1, >..., P_k \in \Z[\m]$ in one unknown $\m$ with $P_1(0) = ... = P_k(0) = 0$ and any $\eps…
For which monomial supports do most polynomials generate a prime ideal? We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the radical of the ideal to be prime over an algebraically closed field. In characteristic zero, the same conditions…
We consider systems of ordinary differential equations with quadratic homogeneous right hand side. We give a new simple proof of a result already obtained in [8,10] which gives the necessary conditions for the existence of polynomial first…
A central question in mathematics and computer science is the question of determining whether a given ideal $I$ is prime, which geometrically corresponds to the zero set of $I$, denoted $Z(I)$, being irreducible. The case of principal…
In this paper we describe three different variations of prime ideals: strongly irreducible ideals, strongly prime ideals and insulated prime ideals in the context of Leavitt path algebras. We give necessary and sufficient conditions under…
In this paper, we prove prime avoidance for ringoids. We also generalize McCoy's and Davis' prime avoidance theorems in the context of semiring theory. Next, we proceed to define and characterize compactly packed semirings and show that a…
We characterize monomial ideals which are intersections of monomial prime ideals and study classes of ideals with this property, among them polymatroidal ideals.
Consider the polynomial ring $R_n = k[x_1,...,x_n]$, where $k$ is a field. Let $m = (x_1,...,x_n)$ and $I$ be an $m$-primary monomial ideal in $R$. We consider the problem of determining whether such ideals are in the Gorenstein liasion…
We introduce balanced polyominoes and show that their ideal of inner minors is a prime ideal and has a quadratic Gr\"obner basis with respect to any monomial order, and we show that any row or column convex and any tree-like polyomino is…
We give a complete solution to the extremal topological combinatorial problem of finding the minimum number of tiles needed to construct a polyomino with $h$ holes. We denote this number by $g(h)$ and say that a polyomino is crystallized if…
In this paper we show that polyomino ideal of a simple polyomino coincides with the toric ideal of a weakly chordal bipartite graph and hence it has a quadratic Gr\"obner basis with respect to a suitable monomial order.
We introduce a method for showing that there exist prime numbers which are very close together. The method depends on the level of distribution of primes in arithmetic progressions. Assuming the Elliott-Halberstam conjecture, we prove that…
