Fix an integer $n \geq 1$, and consider the set of all connected finite simple graphs on $n$ vertices. For each $G$ in this set, let $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$ in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We initiate a study of…
We study the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of tangent cones of Schubert varieties. Conjectures about this statistic are presented; these are proved for the covexillary case. This builds on work of L. Li and the author on these tangent…
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…
Let $X \subseteq \mathbb{P}^r$ be a non-degenerate smooth projective variety of dimension $n$, codimension $e$, and degree $d$ defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. In this paper, we first show that $\text{reg}…
We derive new bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the ideal sheaf of a complex projective manifold of any dimension. They depend linearly on the coefficients of the Hilbert polynomial, and are optimal for rational scrolls, but…
The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity reg(X) of a projective scheme X was introduced by Mumford by generalizing ideas of Castelnuovo. The interest in this concept stems partly from the fact that X is m-regular if and only if for every p \geq 0…
Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension $d$ with infinite residue field. Let $I$ be an $R$-ideal that has analytic spread $\ell(I)=d$, $G_d$ condition and the Artin-Nagata property $AN^-_{d-2}$. We provide a formula relating the…
We derive bounds on the regularity of the algebra $C^\alpha(\mathcal{P})$ of mixed splines over a central polytopal complex $\mathcal{P}\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. As a consequence we bound the largest integer $d$ (the postulation number) for…
Cohen Macaulay property of fiber cones of ideals is characterized in terms of its Hilbert series. Hilbert series of fiber cones of ideals with minimal mixed multiplicity is calculated. It is proved that the fiber cone of an m-primary ideal…
Let $I\subseteq R=\kk[x_1,...,x_n]$ be a homogeneous equigenerated ideal of degree $r$. We show here that the shapes of the Betti tables of the ideals $I^d$ stabilize, in the sense that there exists some $D$ such that for all $d\geq D$,…
We show that the ideal generated by maximal minors (i.e., $(k+1)$-minors) of a $(k+1) \times n$ Vandermonde matrix is radical and Cohen-Macaulay. Note that this ideal is generated by all Specht polynomials with shape $(n-k,1,...,1)$.
We give the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of arrangements of (n-2)-planes in P^n whose incidence graph is a sufficiently large complete bipartite graph, and determine when such arrangements are arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay.
Let $G$ be a finite simple graph with the vertex set $V$ and let $I_G$ be its edge ideal in the polynomial ring $S=\mathbb{K}[x_V]$. In this paper, we compute the depth and the Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity of $S/I_G$ when $G=G_1\circ…
This paper addresses problems related to the existence of arithmetic Macaulayfications of projective schemes. Let Y be the blow-up of a projective scheme X = Proj R along the ideal sheaf of I \subset R. It is known that there are embeddings…
The Specht ideal of shape $\lambda$, where $\lambda$ is a partition, is the ideal generated by all Specht polynomials of shape $\lambda$. Haiman and Woo proved that these ideals are reduced and found their universal Gr\"obner bases. In this…
Let $\mathbf{R}_d$ be the space of stable sheaves $F$ which satisfy the Hilbert polynomial $\chi(F(m))=dm+1$ and are supported on rational curves in the projective plane $\mathbb{P}^2$. Then $\mathbf{R}_1$ (resp. $\mathbf{R}_2$) is…
For a reduced hypersurface $V(f) \subseteq \mathbb{P}^n$ of degree $d$, the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the Milnor algebra $M(f)$ is well understood when $V(f)$ is smooth, as well as when $V(f)$ has isolated singularities. We study…
Let $G$ be a graph with $n$ vertices, $S=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $\mathbb{K}$ and $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$. For every collection $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs with…
We introduce the decomposability spectrum $K_D=\{\lambda \geq \omega| D \text{is} \lambda\text{-decomposable}\}$ of an ultrafilter $D$, and show that Shelah's $\pcf$ theory influences the possible values $K_D$ can take. For example, we show…
