Let $\Delta$ be simplicial complex and let $k[\Delta]$ denote the Stanley--Reisner ring corresponding to $\Delta$. Suppose that $k[\Delta]$ has a pure free resolution. Then we describe the Betti numbers and the Hilbert--Samuel multiplicity…

The starting point is the class of the following simplicial complexes $\Delta$ with 2-linear resolutions. The facets of $\Delta$ are $F_1,\ldots,F_n$, and we demand that for each $i$ $F_i\cap (F_1\cup \cdots\cup F_{i-1}\cup…
We provide a simple method to compute the Betti numbers if the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial tree and its Alexander dual.
We consider the minimal free resolutions of Stanley-Reisner rings associated to linear codes and give an intrinsic characterization of linear codes having a pure resolution. We use this characterization to quickly deduce the minimal free…
There are two seemingly unrelated ideals associated with a simplicial complex \Delta. One is the Stanley-Reisner ideal I_\Delta, the monomial ideal generated by minimal non-faces of \Delta, well-known in combinatorial commutative algebra.…
Let $R=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$, a graded algebra $S=R/I$ satisfies $N_{k,p}$ if $I$ is generated in degree $k$, and the graded minimal resolution is linear the first $p$ steps, and the $k$-index of $S$ is the largest $p$ such that $S$…
In this thesis we investigate certain types of monomial ideals of polynomial rings over fields. We are interested in minimal free resolutions of these ideals (or equivalently the quotients of the polynomial ring by the ideals) considered as…
In this paper, we study a class $\mathcal{C}$ of squarefree monomial ideals $I\subseteq R=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$, defined by the condition that $\dim R/I$ equals the maximum degree of the minimal generators of…
Let M in k[x,y] be a monomial ideal M=(m_1,m_2,...,m_r), where the m_i are a minimal generating set of M. We construct an explicit free resolution of k over S=k[x,y]/M for all monomial ideals M, and provide recursive formulas for the Betti…
A monomial ideal $I$ admits a Betti splitting $I=J+K$ if the Betti numbers of $I$ can be determined in terms of the Betti numbers of the ideals $J,K$ and $J \cap K$. Given a monomial ideal $I$, we prove that $I=J+K$ is a Betti splitting of…
We study simplicial complexes with a given number of vertices whose Stanley-Reisner ring has the minimal possible Betti numbers. We find that these simplicial complexes have very special combinatorial and topological structures. For…
We demonstrate that the Betti numbers associated to an N-graded minimal free resolution of the Stanley-Reisner ring of the (d-1)-skeleton of a simplicial complex of dimension d can be expressed as a Z-linear combination of the corresponding…
Inspired by recent results of Ein, Lazarsfeld, Erman and Zhou on the non-vanishing of Betti numbers of high Veronese subrings, we describe the behaviour of the Betti numbers of Stanley-Reisner rings associated with iterated barycentric or…
Let $\Delta$ be a stable simplicial complex on $n$ vertexes. Over an arbitrary base field $K$, the symmetric algebraic shifted complex $\Delta^s$ of $\Delta$ is defined. It is proved that the Betti numbers of the Stanley-Reisner ideals in…
Alexander duality has, in the past, made its way into commutative algebra through Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial complexes. This has the disadvantage that one is limited to squarefree monomial ideals. The notion of Alexander duality is…
This paper produces a recursive formula of the Betti numbers of certain Stanley-Reisner ideals (graph ideals associated to forests). This gives a purely combinatorial definition of the projective dimension of these ideals, which turns out…
We study the homological properties of $\Delta_{\mathbf{r}}(n_1, \dots, n_e)$, a simplicial complex formed by sequentially gluing complete graphs along $(r_i-1)$-simplices. This construction generates precisely the chordal clique complexes,…
For a simplicial complex $\Delta$, the graded Betti number $\beta_{i,j}(k[\Delta])$ of the Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta]$ over a field $k$ has a combinatorial interpretation due to Hochster. Terai and Hibi showed that if $\Delta$ is the…
We prove upper bounds for the graded Betti numbers of Stanley-Reisner rings of balanced simplicial complexes. Along the way we show bounds for Cohen-Macaulay graded rings $S/I$, where $S$ is a polynomial ring and $I\subseteq S$ is an…
