In a 2008 paper, the first author and Van Tuyl proved that the regularity of the edge ideal of a graph G is at most one greater than the matching number of G. In this note, we provide a generalization of this result to any square-free…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $I(G)$ denote the corresponding edge ideal. In this paper, we obtain upper bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of $I(G)^q$ in terms of certain combinatorial invariants associated with $G$. We…

We study the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of powers of edge ideals. We prove that if G is a bipartite graph, then reg(I(G)^s) \leq 2s + reg I(G) - 2 for all s \geq 2, which is the best possible upper bound for any s. Suspension plays a…

Since the introduction of binomial edge ideals $J_{G}$ by Herzog et al. and independently Ohtani, there has been significant interest in relating algebraic invariants of the binomial edge ideal with combinatorial invariants of the…

The inducibility of a graph $H$ measures the maximum number of induced copies of $H$ a large graph $G$ can have. Generalizing this notion, we study how many induced subgraphs of fixed order $k$ and size $\ell$ a large graph $G$ on $n$…

Let $J_G$ denote the binomial edge ideal of a connected undirected graph on $n$ vertices. This is the ideal generated by the binomials $x_iy_j - x_jy_i, 1\leq i < j \leq n,$ in the polynomial ring $S= K[x_1,...,x_n,y_1,...,y_n]$ where…

We show that the universal Gr\"obner basis and the Graver basis of a binomial edge ideal coincide. We provide a description for this basis set in terms of certain paths in the underlying graph. We conjecture a similar result for a parity…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph and $B \subseteq V(G)$. We introduce the \emph{bivariate $B$-restricted clique polynomial} \[ C_B(G;x,y) = \sum_{\substack{K \subseteq V \\ K \text{ is a clique}}} x^{|K|} y^{|K \cap B|}, \] where the…

In this paper we prove that if $I(G)$ is a bipartite edge ideal with regularity three then for all $s\geq 2$ the regularity of $I(G)^s$ is exactly $2s+1$.

Let $G$ be a graph and $t\ge 0$. A new graph parameter termed the largest reduced neighborhood clique cover number of $G$, denoted by ${\hat\beta}_t(G)$, is introduced. Specifically, ${\hat\beta}_t(G)$ is the largest, overall $t$-shallow…

In this article, we obtain an upper bound for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of powers of an ideal generated by a homogeneous quadratic sequence in a polynomial ring in terms of the regularity of its related ideals and degrees of its…

Let $G$ be a simple connected non-complete graph and $J_G$ be its binomial edge ideal in a polynomial ring $S$. Using certain invariants associated to graphs, say $U(G)$, Banerjee and N\'{u}\~{n}ez-Betancourt gave an upper bound for the…

Let $\operatorname{pd}(I(G))$ and $\operatorname{reg}(I(G))$ respectively denote the projective dimension and the regularity of the edge ideal $I(G)$ of a graph $G$. For any positive integer $n$, we determine all pairs…

We study minimal free resolutions of edge ideals of bipartite graphs. We associate a directed graph to a bipartite graph whose edge ideal is unmixed, and give expressions for the regularity and the depth of the edge ideal in terms of…

We investigate the analytic spread of binomial edge ideals of finite simple graphs. We provide tight bounds for this invariant in general. For special families of graphs (e.g., closed graphs, pseudo-forests), we compute the exact value for…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, let $bc(G)$ denote the minimum number of pairwise edge disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs of $G$ so that each edge of $G$ belongs to exactly one of them. It is easy to see that for every graph $G$, $bc(G) \leq n…

In a graph G, cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that distinguishes every element of V (G) is the (vertex) metric dimension of G. Similarly, the cardinality of such a set is the edge metric dimension of G, if it…
