We prove a complexity lower bound on deciding membership in a semialgebraic set for arithmetic networks in terms of the sum of Betti numbers with respect to "ordinary" (singular) homology. This result complements a similar lower bound by…

We focus in this paper on edge ideals associated to bipartite graphs and give a combinatorial characterization of those having regularity 3. When the regularity is strictly bigger than 3, we determine the first step $i$ in the minimal…

We establish general bounds on the topology of free boundary minimal surfaces obtained via min-max methods in compact, three-dimensional ambient manifolds with mean convex boundary. We prove that the first Betti number is lower…

Cut ideals, introduced by Sturmfels and Sullivant, are used in phylogenetics and algebraic statistics. We study the minimal free resolutions of cut ideals of tree graphs. By employing basic methods from topological combinatorics, we obtain…

Minimal free resolutions of graded modules over a noetherian polynomial ring have been attractive objects of interest for more than a hundred years. We introduce and study two natural extensions in the setting of graded modules over a…

We introduce to the context of multigraded modules the methods of modules over categories from algebraic topology and homotopy theory. We develop the basic theory quite generally, with a view toward future applications to a wide class of…

We present a new effective Nullstellensatz with bounds for the degrees which depend not only on the number of variables and on the degrees of the input polynomials but also on an additional parameter called the {\it geometric degree of the…

The Bandwidth Problem seeks for a simultaneous permutation of the rows and columns of the adjacency matrix of a graph such that all nonzero entries are as close as possible to the main diagonal. This work focuses on investigating novel…

We present some partial results regarding subadditivity of maximal shifts in finite graded free resolutions.

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…

For each $n$, let RD$(n)$ denote the minimum $d$ for which there exists a formula for the general polynomial of degree $n$ in algebraic functions of at most $d$ variables. In this paper, we recover an algorithm of Sylvester for determining…

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…

Real algebraic geometry is the study of semi-algebraic sets, subsets of $\R^k$ defined by Boolean combinations of polynomial equalities and inequalities. The focus of this thesis is to study quantitative results in real algebraic geometry,…

We discuss the minimal free resolution of an irreducible projective subscheme X. If X is also reduced, we focus on the case when its degree equals two plus the codimension. The set of all possible graded Betti numbers is described if the…

In this paper we consider the problem of bounding the Betti numbers, $b_i(S)$, of a semi-algebraic set $S \subset \R^k$ defined by polynomial inequalities $P_1 \geq 0,...,P_s \geq 0$, where $P_i \in \R[X_1,...,X_k]$ and $\deg(P_i) \leq 2$,…

In a recent paper by Harada, Seceleanu, and \c{S}ega, the Hilbert function, betti table, and graded minimal free resolution of a general principal symmetric ideal are determined when the number of variables in the polynomial ring is…

We asymptotically estimate from above the expected Betti numbers of random real hypersurfaces in smooth real projective manifolds. Our upper bounds grow as the square root of the degree of the hypersurfaces as the latter grows to infinity,…

We study two long-standing conjectures concerning lower bounds for the Betti numbers of a graded module over a polynomial ring. We prove new cases of these conjectures in codimensions five and six by reframing the conjectures as arithmetic…

We make explicit the exponential bound on the degrees of the polynomials appearing in the Effective Quillen-Suslin Theorem, and apply it jointly with the Hilbert-Burch Theorem to show that the syzygy module of a sequence of m polynomials in…

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 $S$…
