In this paper we study standard graded artinian level algebras, in particular those whose socle-vector has type 2. Our main results are: the characterization of the level $h$-vectors of the form $(1,r,...,r,2)$ for $r\leq 4$; the…

Over an arbitrary field, we conduct a comprehensive study of the polynomial identities and codimensions of two- and three-dimensional metabelian non-Lie Leibniz algebras. In addition, we compute the images of multihomogeneous polynomials on…

This paper initiates a systematic study for key properties of Artinian Gorenstein \(K\)-algebras having binomial Macaulay dual generators. In codimension 3, we demonstrate that all such algebras satisfy the strong Lefschetz property, can be…

We study the closed convex hull of various collections of Hilbert functions. Working over a standard graded polynomial ring with modules that are generated in degree zero, we describe the supporting hyperplanes and extreme rays for the…

The main result of the paper is the classification of all (nonassociative) algebras of level two, i.e. such algebras that maximal chains of nontrivial degenerations starting at them have length two. During this classification we obtain an…

We determine new bounds on the entries of Gorenstein Hilbert functions, both in any fixed codimension and asymptotically. Our first main theorem is a lower bound for the degree $i+1$ entry of a Gorenstein $h$-vector, in terms of its entry…

It is well known that for a subscheme $V$ in ${\mathbb P}^{n}$ of codimension two, the conditions (1) $V$ is ACM, and (2) $V$ is "licci" (i.e. $V$ is in the liaison class of a complete intersection) are equivalent. In higher codimension,…

Anari, Gharan, and Vinzant proved (complete) log-concavity of the basis generating functions for all matroids. From the viewpoint of combinatorial Hodge theory, it is natural to ask whether these functions are "strictly" log-concave for…

We characterize the topological non-cancellative cones that are expressible as projective limits of finite powers of $[0,\infty]$. These are also the cones of lower semicontinuous extended-valued traces on AF C*-algebras. Our main result…

We combinatorially prove that the number $R(n,k)$ of permutations of length $n$ having $k$ runs is a log-concave sequence in $k$, for all $n$. We also give a new combinatorial proof for the log-concavity of the Eulerian numbers.

In 2022, Huh-Matherne-M\'esz\'aros-St. Dizier showed that normalized Schur polynomials are Lorentzian, thereby yielding their continuous (resp. discrete) log-concavity on the positive orthant (resp. on their support, in type $A$ root…

Consider a normal complex analytic surface singularity. It is called Gorenstein if the canonical line bundle is holomorphically trivial in some punctured neighborhood of the singular point and is called numerically Gorenstein if this line…

An integral convex polytope ${\mathcal P}$ is said to be Gorenstein if its toric ring $K[{\mathcal P}]$ is normal and Gorenstein. In this paper, Gorenstein cut polytopes of graphs are characterized explicitly. First, we prove that…

In this paper, we prove that the number of unimodal sequences of size $n$ is log-concave. These are coefficients of a mixed false modular form and have a Rademacher-type exact formula due to recent work of the second author and Nazaroglu on…

Leibniz algebras are certain generalization of Lie algebras. In this paper we give classification of non-Lie solvable (left) Leibniz algebras of dimension $\leq 8$ with one dimensional derived subalgebra. We use the canonical forms for the…

It is shown that tube sets over amoebas of algebraic varieties (and, more generally, of almost periodic holomorphic chains) of dimension q are q-pseudoconcave in the sense of Rothstein. This is a direct consequence of a representation of…

Horizontal and vertical generating functions and recursion relations have been investigated by Comtet for triangular double sequences. In this paper we investigate the horizontal and vertical log-concavity of triangular sequences assigned…

The derived category of a Gorenstein triangular matrix algebra $A$ admits an unbounded ladder, which is of period $3$ if $A = T_2(B)$. Also, a left recollement of triangulated categories with Serre functors sits in a ladder of period $1$;…

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field. In this note, we show that if a sequence of relatively prime positive integers ${\bf a}=(a_1,a_2,a_3,a_4)$ defines a Gorenstein non complete intersection monomial curve ${\mathcal C}({\bf a})$ in ${\mathbb…

We classify log-canonical pairs $(X, \Delta)$ of dimension two with $K_X+\Delta$ an ample Cartier divisor with $(K_X+\Delta)^2=1$, giving some applications to stable surfaces with $K^2=1$. A rough classification is also given in the case…
