Let I be either the ideal of maximal minors or the ideal of 2-minors of a row graded or column graded matrix of linear forms L. In two previous papers we showed that I is a Cartwright-Sturmfels ideal, that is, the multigraded generic…
This paper has two aims. The first is to study ideals of minors of matrices whose entries are among the variables of a polynomial ring. Specifically, we describe matrices whose ideals of minors of a given size are prime. The main result in…
We investigate Rees algebras and special fiber rings obtained by blowing up specialized Ferrers ideals. This class of monomial ideals includes strongly stable monomial ideals generated in degree two and edge ideals of prominent classes of…
Let $R = K[x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4]$ be the polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero. For the ideal $(x_1^a, x_2^b, x_3^c, x_4^d) \subset R$, where at least one of $a$, $b$, $c$ and $d$ is equal to two, we prove that its generic…
We investigate the defining ideal of a set of points X in multi-projective space with a special emphasis on the case that X is in generic position, that is, X has the maximal Hilbert function. When X is in generic position, we determine the…
In 1978 Lipman presented a proof of the existence of a desingularization for any excellent surface. The strategy of Lipman's proof is based on the finiteness of the number H(R) defined as the supreme of the second Hilbert-Samuel coefficient…
We call the scheme parameterizing homogeneous ideals with fixed initial ideal the Gr\"obner scheme. We introduce a Bia{\l}ynicki-Birula decomposition of the Hilbert scheme $\mathrm{Hilb}^{P}_n$ for any Hilbert polynomial $P$ such that the…
A short proof of the "Rigidity theorem" using the sheaf theoretic model for Hilbert modules over polynomial rings is given. The joint kernel for a large class of submodules is described. The completion $[\mathcal I]$ of a homogeneous…
Let H denote the standard one-point completion of a real Hilbert space. Given any non-trivial proper sub-set U of H one may define the so-called `Apollonian' metric d_U on U. When U \subset V \subset H are nested proper subsets we show that…
The notion of Ehrhart tensor polynomials, a natural generalization of the Ehrhart polynomial of a lattice polytope, was recently introduced by Ludwig and Silverstein. We initiate a study of their coefficients. In the vector and matrix…
Let F be a finite field of characteristic 2 and h be the element x^3+y^3+xyz of F[[x,y,z]]. In an earlier paper we made a precise conjecture as to the values of the colengths of the ideals (x^q,y^q,z^q,h^j) for q a power of 2. We also…
We study the Hilbert series of a family of ideals J_\phi generated by powers of linear forms in k[x_1,...,x_n]. Using the results of Emsalem-Iarrobino, we formulate this as a question about fatpoints in P^{n-1}. In the three variable case…
We give a lower bound on the Hilbert series of the exterior algebra modulo a principal ideal generated by a generic form of odd degree and disprove a conjecture by Moreno-Soc\'ias and Snellman. We also show that the lower bound is equal to…
Let $R=k[x_1, ..., x_n]$ be a polynomial ring and let $I\subset R$ be a graded ideal. In \cite{R}, R\"{o}mer asked whether under the Cohen-Macaulay assumption the $i$-th Betti number $\beta_{i}(R/I)$ can be bounded above by a function of…
Let $\Bbbk$ be a field and let $I$ be a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $Q=\Bbbk[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. In her thesis, Taylor introduced a complex which provides a finite free resolution for $Q/I$ as a $Q$-module. Later, Gemeda constructed…
In 1888, Hilbert described how to find real polynomials in more than one variable which take only non-negative values but are not a sum of squares of polynomials. His construction was so restrictive that no explicit examples appeared until…
We consider modules $M$ over Lie algebroids ${\mathfrak g}_A$ which are of finite type over a local noetherian ring $A$. Using ideals $J\subset A$ such that ${\mathfrak g}_A \cdot J\subset J $ and the length $\ell_{{\mathfrak g}_A}(M/JM)<…
This paper defines the Euler-Poincar\'{e} characteristic of joint reductions of ideals which concerns the maximal terms in the Hilbert polynomial; characterizes the positivity of mixed multiplicities in terms of minimal joint reductions;…
Over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$, Harbourne conjectured that $$I^{(N (r-1)+1)} \subseteq I^r$$ for all $r>0$ and all homogeneous ideals $I$ in $S = \mathbb{F} [\mathbb{P}^N] = \mathbb{F} [x_0, \ldots, x_N]$. The conjecture has been…
Let A[X]_U be a fraction ring of the polynomial ring A[X] in the variable X over a commutative ring A. We show that the Hilbert functor {Hilb}^n_{A[X]_U} is represented by an affine scheme $\text{Symm}^n_A(A[X]_U)$ give as the ring of…
