We construct explicitly regular sequences in the semigroup ring $R=\CC[K]$ of lattice points of the graded cone $K$. We conjecture that the quotients of $R$ by these sequences describe locally string-theoretic cohomology of a toroidal…

We establish a uniform bound for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of associated graded rings of parameter ideals in a generalized Cohen-Macaulay ring. As consequences, we obtain uniform bounds for the relation type and the postulation…

In this paper we give a unified approach for several results concerning the fiber cone of ideals

We consider the closed neighborhood ideal of square of the path graph and study some of its algebraic and homological invariants. We compute the height, the projective dimension and the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. We prove that these…

Let $X$ be the Hankel matrix of size $2\times n$ and let $G$ be a closed graph on the vertex set $[n].$ We study the binomial ideal $I_G\subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_{n+1}]$ which is generated by all the $2$-minors of $X$ which correspond to the…

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.

The paper has two goals: the study the associated graded ring of contracted homogeneous ideals in $K[x,y]$ and the study of the Groebner fan of the ideal $P$ of the rational normal curve in ${\bf P}^d$. These two problems are, quite…

We answer a question of Koll\'ar and Kov\'acs by constructing a flat projective morphism to a smooth curve whose fibers are Cohen--Macaulay and reduced, whose generic fiber is smooth, and for which the first cohomology of the structure…

We study the coordinate ring of an $L$-convex polyomino, determine its regularity in terms of the maximal number of rooks that can be placed in the polyomino. We also characterize the Gorenstein $L$-convex polyominoes and those which are…

We study the birational geometry of a Fano 4-fold X from the point of view of Mori dream spaces; more precisely, we study rational contractions of X. Here a rational contraction is a rational map f: X-->Y, where Y is normal and projective,…

We prove that certain fibered, $-$amphicheiral knots are rationally slice. Moreover, we show that the concordance invariants $\nu^+$ and $\Upsilon(t)$ from Heegaard Floer homology vanish for a class of knots that includes rationally slice…

Using SAGBI basis techniques, we find Gr\"obner bases for the presentation ideals of the Rees algebras and special fiber rings of unit interval determinantal facet ideals. In particular, we show that unit interval determinantal facet ideals…

In this paper, we prove some sufficient conditions for Cohen-Macaulay normal Rees algebras to be $F$-rational. Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Gorenstein normal local domain of dimension $d\geq 2$ and of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $I$ be a…

We study the Rees algebra of a perfect Gorenstein ideal of codimension 3 in a hypersurface ring. We provide a minimal generating set of the defining ideal of these rings by introducing a modified Jacobian dual and applying a recursive…

Connected bipartite graphs whose binomial edge ideals are Cohen--Macaulay have been classified by Bolognini et al. In this paper, we compute the depth, Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity, and dimension of the generalized binomial edge ideals…

In this note we study the Seifert rational homology spheres with two complementary legs, i.e. with a pair of invariants whose fractions add up to one. We give a complete classification of the Seifert manifolds with 3 exceptional fibers and…

We study the singularities of the irreducible components of the Springer fiber over a nilpotent element N with N^2=0 in a Lie algebra of type A or D (the so-called two columns case). We use Frobenius splitting techniques to prove that these…

Given two determinantal rings over a field k. We consider the Rees algebra of the diagonal ideal, the kernel of the multiplication map. The special fiber ring of the diagonal ideal is the homogeneous coordinate ring of the join variety.…

We classify all convex polyomino whose coordinate rings are Gorenstein. We also compute the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the coordinate ring of any stack polyomino in terms of the smallest interval which contains its vertices. We give…

In this paper we show that there is a close relationship between the invariants characterizing the homogeneous vanishing of the local cohomology of the Rees algebra and the associated graded ring for the good filtrations case. We obtain…
