Let $Q=k[x_1,..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a field $k$ with the standard $N^n$-grading. Let $\phi$ be a morphism of finite free $N^n$-graded $Q$-modules. We translate to this setting several notions and constructions that appear…
By an easy application of Skoda's theorem on ideal generation, a non-local version of the Briancon-Skoda theorem is obtained. In particular, the symbolic powers $I^{(p)}$ of a zero dimensional radical ideal $I$ generated by $r$ holomorphic…
In recent decades, linear affine threefolds have enabled researchers to solve some of the challenging problems on affine spaces. Koras-Russell threefolds, especially the Russell Cubic over $\mathbb{C}$ and Asanuma threefolds over a field of…
The main goal of this paper is to give a general method to compute (via computer algebra systems) an explicit set of generators of the ideals of the projective embeddings of some ruled surfaces, namely projective line bundles over curves…
We survey some recent results on the minimal graded free resolution of a square-free monomial ideal. The theme uniting these results is the point-of-view that the generators of a monomial ideal correspond to the maximal faces (the facets)…
As a higher analogue of the edge ideal of a graph, we study the $t$-connected ideal $\operatorname{J}_{t}$. This is the monomial ideal generated by the connected subsets of size $t$. For chordal graphs, we show that $\operatorname{J}_{t}$…
In this paper we propose a model for computing a minimal free resolution for ideals of the form $I_{1}(X_{n}Y_{n})$, where $X_{n}$ is an $n\times n$ skew-symmetric matrix with indeterminate entries $x_{ij}$ and $Y_{n}$ is a generic column…
The Orlik-Solomon algebra ${\cal A}(G)$ of a matroid $G$ is the free exterior algebra on the points, modulo the ideal generated by the circuit boundaries. On one hand, this algebra is a homotopy invariant of the complement of any complex…
An explicit construction is given of a minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by all squarefree monomials of a given degree. The construction relies upon and exhibits the natural action of the symmetric group on the syzygy modules.…
Makar-Limanov's conjecture states that if a division ring D is finitely generated and infinite dimensional over its center k then D contains a free k-subalgebra of rank 2. In this work, we will investigate the existence of such structures…
Let $\mathbb{K}$ denote an algebraically closed field and $A$ a free product of finitely many semisimple associative $\mathbb{K}$-algebras. We associate to $A$ a finite acyclic quiver $\Gamma$ and show that the category of finite…
We develop a notion of linear strands for multigraded free resolutions, and we prove a multigraded generalization of Green's Linear Syzygy Theorem.
With a simple graph $G$ on $[n]$, we associate a binomial ideal $P_G$ generated by diagonal minors of an $n \times n$ matrix $X=(x_{ij})$ of variables. We show that for any graph $G$, $P_G$ is a prime complete intersection ideal and…
We construct a canonical free resolution for arbitrary monomial modules and lattice ideals. This includes monomial ideals and defining ideals of toric varieties, and it generalizes our joint results with Irena Peeva for generic ideals.
We describe the imaginary sorts of infinite products in terms of imaginary sorts of the factors. We extend the result to certain reduced powers and then to infinite products $\prod_{i\in I} M_i$ enriched with a predicate for the ideal of…
A curious correspondence has been known between Landau models and non-linear sigma models: Reinterpreting the base-manifolds of Landau models as field-manifolds, the Landau models are transformed to non-linear sigma models with same global…
Let $I\subset S$ be a graded ideal of a standard graded polynomial ring $S$ with coefficients in a field $K$, and let $\text{v}(I)$ be the $\text{v}$-number of $I$. In previous work, we showed that for any graded ideal $I\subset S$…
Idoneal genera are a generalization of Euler's idoneal numbers. We enumerate all idoneal genera by means of the Smith--Minkowski--Siegel mass formula. As an application, we classify transcendental lattices of K3 surfaces covering an…
In the first part of this paper, given a smooth family of Dirac-type operators on an odd-dimensional closed manifold, we construct an abelian gerbe-with-connection whose curvature is the three-form component of the Atiyah-Singer families…
We construct free resolutions for quotient rings $R/\langle \mathcal{I}', \mathcal{I}\mathcal{J}, \mathcal{J}'\rangle$, give conditions for the quotient to be realized as a fiber product, and give criteria for the construction to be…
