We introduce binomial edge ideals attached to a simple graph $G$ and study their algebraic properties. We characterize those graphs for which the quadratic generators form a Gr\"obner basis in a lexicographic order induced by a vertex…

For a finite simple graph $G$ and an integer $r \ge 1$, the $r$-connected ideal $I_r(G)$ is the squarefree monomial ideal generated by the vertex sets of connected induced subgraphs of size $r+1$, extending the classical edge ideal. We…

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…

Using the recent results on square-free Gr\"obner degenerations by Conca and Varbaro, we proved that if a homogeneous ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring is such that its initial ideal $\mathrm{in}_<(I)$ is square-free and $\beta_0(I) =…

Let $G$ be a simple finite graph. A famous theorem of Dirac says that $G$ is chordal if and only if $G$ admits a perfect elimination order. It is known by Fr\"oberg that the edge ideal $I(G)$ of $G$ has a linear resolution if and only if…

Given a square-free monomial ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$, one can associate it with its LCM-lattice and its hypergraph. In this short note, we establish the connection between the LCM-lattice and the…

In this thesis we investigate certain types of monomial ideals of polynomial rings over fields. We are interested in minimal free resolutions of these ideals (or equivalently the quotients of the polynomial ring by the ideals) considered as…

The emergence of Boij-S\"oderberg theory has given rise to new connections between combinatorics and commutative algebra. Herzog, Sharifan, and Varbaro recently showed that every Betti diagram of an ideal with a k-linear minimal resolution…

In combinatorial commutative algebra and algebraic statistics many toric ideals are constructed from graphs. Keeping the categorical structure of graphs in mind we give previous results a more functorial context and generalize them by…

Let $R = k[x_1, \dotsc , x_n]$ denote the standard graded polynomial ring over a field $k$. We study certain classes of equigenerated monomial ideals with the property that the so-called complementary ideal has no linear relations on the…

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the Betti diagrams of squarefree monomial ideals in polynomial rings. We use two key tools to help us study these diagrams. The first is the Stanley-Reisner Correspondence, which assigns a unique…

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on the vertex set $V(G)$ and let $r$ be a positive integer. We consider the hypergraph $\mathrm{Con}_r(G)$ whose vertices are the vertices of $G$ and the (hyper)edges are all $A\subseteq V(G)$ such that…

We present two new problems on lower bounds for resolution Betti numbers of monomial ideals generated in a fixed degree. The first concerns any such ideal and bounds the total Betti numbers, while the second concerns ideals that are…

Given a simple undirected graph $G$ there is a simplicial complex $\mathrm{Ind}(G)$, called the independence complex, whose faces correspond to the independent sets of $G$. This is a well studied concept because it provides a fertile ground…

Call a monomial ideal M "generic" if no variable appears with the same nonzero exponent in two distinct monomial generators. Using a convex polytope first studied by Scarf, we obtain a minimal free resolution of M. Any monomial ideal M can…

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal in the polynomial ring $S$ generated by elements of degree at most $d$. In this paper, it is shown that, if the $i$-th syzygy of $I$ has no element of degrees $j, \ldots, j+(d-1)$ (where $j \geq i+d$), then…

A certain squarefree monomial ideal $H_P$ arising from a finite partially ordered set $P$ will be studied from viewpoints of both commutative algebra and combinatorics. First, it is proved that the defining ideal of the Rees algebra of…

In this paper, we study the componentwise linearity of edge ideals of weighted oriented graphs. We show that if $D$ is a weighted oriented graph whose edge ideal $I(D)$ is componentwise linear, then the underlying simple graph $G$ of $D$ is…

We study the binomial and monomial ideals arising from linear equivalence of divisors on graphs from the point of view of Gr\"obner theory. We give an explicit description of a minimal Gr\"obner bases for each higher syzygy module. In each…

Let $S = K[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be the standard graded polynomial ring over a field $K$. In this paper, we address and completely solve two fundamental open questions in Commutative Algebra: (i) For which degrees $d$, does there exist a…
