Many important problems in extremal combinatorics can be be stated as proving a pure binomial inequality in graph homomorphism numbers, i.e., proving that…
A clutter is \emph{$k$-wise intersecting} if every $k$ members have a common element, yet no element belongs to all members. We conjecture that, for some integer $k\geq 4$, every $k$-wise intersecting clutter is non-ideal. As evidence for…
The \emph{thinness} of a graph is a width parameter that generalizes some properties of interval graphs, which are exactly the graphs of thinness one. Graphs with thinness at most two include, for example, bipartite convex graphs. Many…
The study of Ramanujan-type congruences for functions specific to additive number theory has a long and rich history. Motivated by recent connections between divisor sums and overpartitions via congruences in arithmetic progressions, we…
A minor is principal means it is defined by the same row and column indices. Let $X$ be a square generic matrix, $K[X]$ the polynomial ring in entries of $X$, over an algebraically closed field, $K$. For fixed $t\leq n$, let $\mathfrak P_t$…
We consider the intersection $\mathfrak{M}(A)$ of all maximal ideals of an evolution algebra $A$ and study the structure of the quotient $A/\M(A)$. In a previous work, maximal ideals have been related to hereditary subsets of a graph…
Leibniz algebras are non-antisymmetric generalizations of Lie algebras that have attracted substantial interest due to their close relation with the latter class. A Leibniz algebra $A$ is called perfect if it coincides with its derived…
Pairwise ordered tree alignment are combinatorial objects that appear in RNA secondary structure comparison. However, the usual representation of tree alignments as supertrees is ambiguous, i.e. two distinct supertrees may induce identical…
Parity binomial edge ideals of simple undirected graphs are introduced. Unlike binomial edge ideals, they do not have square-free Gr\"obner bases and are radical if only if the graph is bipartite or the characteristic of the ground field is…
An algebraic structure is said to be congruence permutable if its arbitrary congruences $\alpha$ and $\beta$ satisfy the equation $\alpha \circ \beta =\beta \circ \alpha$, where $\circ$ denotes the usual composition of binary relations. For…
We use the arithmetic of ideals in orders to parameterize the roots $\mu \pmod m$ of the polynomial congruence $F(\mu) \equiv 0 \pmod m$, $F(X) \in \mathbb{Z}[X]$ monic, irreducible and degree $d$. Our parameterization generalizes Gauss's…
An ideal $I$ is a family of subsets of positive integers $\mathbb{N}$ which is closed under taking finite unions and subsets of its elements. A sequence $(x_k)$ of real numbers is said to be lacunary $I$-convergent to a real number $\ell$,…
A variety V has definable factor congruences if and only if factor congruences can be defined by a first-order formula Phi having central elements as parameters. We prove that if Phi can be chosen to be existential, factor congruences in…
Theoretical equivalence and duality are two closely related notions: but their interconnection has so far not been well understood. In this paper I explicate the contribution of a recent schema for duality to discussions of theoretical…
Let $A$ be a graded complete intersection over a field and $B$ the monomial complete intersection with the generators of the same degrees as $A$. The EGH conjecture says that if $I$ is a graded ideal in $A$, then there should be an ideal…
Let $R=\mathbb{K}[X_1, \ldots , X_n ]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $\mathbb{K}$. We introduce an endomorphism $\mathcal{F}^{[m]}: R \rightarrow R $ and denote the image of an ideal $I$ of $R$ via this endomorphism as $I^{[m]}$ and…
We associate a combinatorial object to sequences of point blow-ups over perfect fields, the weighted directed graph, and another one to the composition of all blow-ups, which we call associated sequential morphisms, the $d-$ary intersection…
The q-binomial coefficients are the polynomial cousins of the traditional binomial coefficients, and a number of identities for binomial coefficients can be translated into this polynomial setting. For instance, the familiar vanishing of…
Let $J_G$ be the binomial edge ideal of a graph $G$. We characterize all graphs whose binomial edge ideals, as well as their initial ideals, have regularity $3$. Consequently we characterize all graphs $G$ such that $J_G$ is extremal…
There is a longstanding conjecture by Fr\"oberg about the Hilbert series of the ring $R/I$, where $R$ is a polynomial ring, and $I$ an ideal generated by generic forms. We prove this conjecture true in the case when $I$ is generated by a…
