In this paper, we first give some sufficient criteria for normality of monomial ideals. As applications, we show that closed neighborhood ideals of complete bipartite graphs are normal, and hence satisfy the (strong) persistence property.…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s) \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ is some…
The code equivalence problem is central in coding theory and cryptography. While classical invariants are effective for Hamming and rank metrics, the sum-rank metric, which unifies both, introduces new challenges. This paper introduces new…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring with identity and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. Let $R\Join I$ be the subring of $R\times R$ consisting of the elements $(r,r+i)$ for $r\in R$ and $i\in I$. We study the diameter and girth of the zero-divisor…
We introduce the class of vector-spread monomial ideals. This notion generalizes that of $t$-spread ideals introduced by Ene, Herzog and Qureshi. In particular, we focus on vector-spread strongly stable ideals, we compute their Koszul…
We study the homological algebra of edge ideals of Erd\"{o}s-R\'enyi random graphs. These random graphs are generated by deleting edges of a complete graph on $n$ vertices independently of each other with probability $1-p$. We focus on some…
The reduction number r(A) of a standard graded algebra A is the least integer k such that there exists a minimal reduction J of the homogeneous maximal ideal m of A such that Jm^k=m^{k+1}. Vasconcelos conjectured that the reduction number…
Many hard combinatorial problems can be modeled by a system of polynomial equations. N. Alon coined the term polynomial method to describe the use of nonlinear polynomials when solving combinatorial problems. We continue the exploration of…
Binomial edge ideals associated to a simple graph G were introduced by Herzog and collaborators and, independently, by Ohtani. They became an ``instant classic" in combinatorial commutative algebra with more than 100 papers devoted to their…
We study minimal free resolutions of edge ideals of bipartite graphs. We associate a directed graph to a bipartite graph whose edge ideal is unmixed, and give expressions for the regularity and the depth of the edge ideal in terms of…
The toric ring together with the toric ideal arising from a nested configuration is studied, with particular attention given to the algebraic study of normality of the toric ring as well as the Gr\"obner bases of the toric ideal. One of the…
Motivated by notions from coding theory, we study the generalized minimum distance (GMD) function $\delta_I(d,r)$ of a graded ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring over an arbitrary field using commutative algebraic methods. It is shown that…
An ideal of a local polynomial ring can be described by calculating a standard basis with respect to a local monomial ordering. However standard basis algorithms are not numerically stable. Instead we can describe the ideal numerically by…
The zero-divisor graph of a finite commutative ring with unity is the graph whose vertex set is the set of zero-divisors in the ring, with $a$ and $b$ adjacent if $ab=0$. We show that the class of zero-divisor graphs is universal, in the…
Classically, Groebner bases are computed by first prescribing a set monomial order. Moss Sweedler suggested an alternative and developed a framework to perform such computations by using valuation rings in place of monomial orders. We build…
Substantial changes in many parts of the paper. In particular, significantly expanded treatment of monomial ideals and of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. Also relation between delta-regularity and Noether normalisation now treated.
This paper investigates the application of the theoretical algebraic notion of a separable ring extension, in the realm of cyclic convolutional codes or, more generally, ideal codes. We work under very mild conditions, that cover all…
Let $R$ be a commutative ring and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$. In this paper, we introduce the cozero-divisor graph $\acute{\Gamma}_I(R)$ of $R$ and obtain some related results.
We consider the ring I_n of polynomial invariants over weighted graphs on n vertices. Our primary interest is the use of this ring to define and explore algebraic versions of isomorphism problems of graphs, such as Ulam's reconstruction…
We classify reflexive graded right ideals, up to isomorphism and shift, of generic cubic three dimensional Artin-Schelter regular algebras. We also determine the possible Hilbert functions of these ideals. These results are obtained by…
