In this paper, we study rooted products of graphs from the perspective of combinatorial commutative algebra. For edge ideals, we introduce the 2-Cohen-Macaulayness with respect to a vertex and use it to investigate when edge ideals of…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. If $G$ is a K\"onig graph or $G$ is a graph without 3-cycles and 5-cycle, we prove that the following conditions are equivalent: $\Delta_{G}$ is pure shellable, $R/I_{\Delta}$ is Cohen-Macaulay, $G$ is unmixed…

We present criteria for the Cohen-Macaulayness of a monomial ideal in terms of its primary decomposition. These criteria allow us to use tools of graph theory and of linear programming to study the Cohen-Macaulayness of monomial ideals…

We investigate, using the notion of linear quotients, significative classes of connected graphs whose monomial edge ideals, not necessarily squarefree, have linear resolution, in order to compute standard algebraic invariants of the…

We apply some basic notions from combinatorial topology to establish various algebraic properties of edge ideals of graphs and more general Stanley-Reisner rings. In this way we provide new short proofs of some theorems from the literature…

In this paper we give new upper bounds on the regularity of edge ideals whose resolutions are k-steps linear; surprisingly, the bounds are logarithmic in the number of variables. We also give various bounds for the projective dimension of…

A tetrahedral curve is a (usually nonreduced) curve in P^3 defined by an unmixed, height two ideal generated by monomials. We characterize when these curves are arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay by associating a graph to each curve and, using…

Closed graphs have been characterized by Herzog et al. as the graphs whose binomial edge ideals have a quadratic Gr\"obner basis with respect to a diagonal term order. In this paper, we focus on a generalization of closed graphs, namely…

We classify all binomial edge ideals that are complete intersection and Cohen-Macaulay almost complete intersection. We also describe an algorithm and provide an implementation to compute primary decomposition of binomial edge ideals.

We show that for a vertex decomposable simplicial complex $\Delta$, the Rees algebra of $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a normal Cohen-Macaulay domain. As consequences, we show that any squarefree weakly polymatroidal ideal is normal and we obtain…

We introduce and study vertex cover algebras of weighted simplicial complexes. These algebras are special classes of symbolic Rees algebras. We show that symbolic Rees algebras of monomial ideals are finitely generated and that such an…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on $[n]$ and $I(G) \subset S$ the edge ideal of $G$, where $S = K[x_{1}, \ldots, x_{n}]$ is the polynomial ring over a field $K$. Let $m(G)$ denote the maximum size of matchings of $G$ and $im(G)$ that of…

For a simple graph $G$, let $J_G$ denote the corresponding binomial edge ideal. This article considers the binomial edge ideal of the corona product of two connected graphs $G$ and $H$. The corona product of $G$ and $H$, denoted by $G\circ…

We first characterise graphs with binomial edge ideals of K\"onig type as those for which the path covering number is equal to a minor variant of the scattering number. These are well-studied graph-theoretic invariants, allowing us to apply…

A graph $G$ is said to be chordal if it has no induced cycles of length four or more. In a recent preprint Culbertson, Guralnik, and Stiller give a new characterization of chordal graphs in terms of sequences of what they call…

In the present paper we investigate a question stemming from a long-standing conjecture of Vasconcelos: given a generically a complete intersection perfect ideal I in a regular local ring R, is it true that if I/I^2 (or R/I^2) is…

Let $R = k[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $k$ and let $I$ be a monomial ideal of $R$. In this paper, we study almost Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complex. Moreover, we characterize the almost…

All Cohen--Macaulay polymatroidal ideals are classified. The Cohen--Macaulay polymatroidal ideals are precisely the principal ideals, the Veronese ideals, and the squarefree Veronese ideals.

We prove the multiplicity bounds conjectured by Herzog-Huneke-Srinivasan and Herzog-Srinivasan in the following cases: the strong conjecture for edge ideals of bipartite graphs, and the weaker Taylor bound conjecture for all quadratic…

Given an arbitrary graph G, we study its basic covers algebra, which is the symbolic fiber cone of the Alexander dual of the edge ideal of G. Extending results of Villarreal and Benedetti-Constantinescu-Varbaro, valid only in the case when…
