Let $S$ be a polynomial ring over any field $\Bbbk$, and let $P \subseteq S$ be a non-degenerate homogeneous prime ideal of height $h$. When $\Bbbk$ is algebraically closed, a classical result attributed to Castelnuovo establishes an upper…

A rigorous lower bound is obtained for the average resolution of any estimate of a shift parameter, such as an optical phase shift or a spatial translation. The bound has the asymptotic form k_I/<2|G|> where G is the generator of the shift…

The minimum height of vertex and edge partition trees are well-studied graph parameters known as, for instance, vertex and edge ranking number. While they are NP-hard to determine in general, linear-time algorithms exist for trees.…
Let $k$ be a field of odd characteristic $p$. Fix an even number $d<p+1$ and a power $q\geq d+3$ of $p$. For most choices of degree $d$ standard graded hypersurfaces $R=k[x,y,z]/(f)$ with homogeneous maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$, we can…
Bresinsky defined a class of monomial curves in $\mathbb{A}^{4}$ with the property that the minimal number of generators or the first Betti number of the defining ideal is unbounded above. We prove that the same behaviour of unboundedness…
We introduce a new method for building higher-degree sum-of-squares lower bounds over the hypercube $\mathbf{x} \in \{\pm 1\}^N$ from a given degree 2 lower bound. Our method constructs pseudoexpectations that are positive semidefinite by…

This paper concerns the study of a class of clutters called simplicial subclutters. Given a clutter $\mathcal{C}$ and its simplicial subclutter $\mathcal{D}$, we compare some algebraic properties and invariants of the ideals $I, J$…
We investigate lower bounds for the number of ideal and finite vertices of right-angled hyperbolic polyhedra of finite volume. We use a geometric method of orthogonal gluings to establish new bounds in low dimensions, specifically…
The Betti tables of a multigraded module encode the grades at which there is an algebraic change in the module. Multigraded modules show up in many areas of pure and applied mathematics, and in particular in topological data analysis, where…
This paper aims for set-to-hypergraph prediction, where the goal is to infer the set of relations for a given set of entities. This is a common abstraction for applications in particle physics, biological systems, and combinatorial…

Algebraic boundaries of convex semi-algebraic sets are closely related to polynomial optimization problems. Building upon Rainer Sinn's work, we refine the stratification of iterated singular loci to a Whitney (a) stratification, which…
We investigate a variant of Wirsing's problem on approximation to a real number by real algebraic numbers of degree exactly $n$. This has been studied by Bugeaud and Teulie. We improve their bounds for degrees up to $n=7$. Moreover, we…
