We survey a number of recent studies of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of squarefree monomial ideals. Our focus is on bounds and exact values for the regularity in terms of combinatorial data from associated simplicial complexes and/or…
We study monomial ideals with linear presentation or partially linear resolution. We give combinatorial characterizations of linear presentation for square-free ideals of degree 3, and for primary ideals whose resolutions are linear except…
In this paper, we introduce techniques for producing normal square-free monomial ideals from old such ideals. These techniques are then used to investigate the normality of cover ideals under some graph operations. Square-free monomial…
In this paper, we first show that any square-free monomial ideal in $K[x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4, x_5]$ has the strong persistence property. Next we will provide a criterion for a minimal counterexample to the Conforti-Cornuejols conjecture.…
We define a new combinatorial object, which we call a labeled hypergraph, uniquely associated to any square-free monomial ideal. We prove several upper bounds on the regularity of a square-free monomial ideal in terms of simple…
We show that the regularity of monomial ideals whose associated prime ideals are totally ordered by inclusion is linearly bounded.
Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity is a measure of algebraic complexity of an ideal. Regularity of monomial ideals can be investigated combinatorially. We use a simple graph decomposition and results from structural graph theory to prove,…
In this paper, we study Cstelnuovo-Mumford regularity of square-free monomial ideals generated in degree 3. We define some operations on the clutters associated to such ideals and prove that the regularity is conserved under these…
In a 2008 paper, the first author and Van Tuyl proved that the regularity of the edge ideal of a graph G is at most one greater than the matching number of G. In this note, we provide a generalization of this result to any square-free…
In this paper we study squarefree monomial ideals which have constant depth functions. Edge ideals, matroidal ideals and facet ideals of pure simplicial forests connected in codimension one with this property are classified.
We introduce the concept of quasi-linearity and prove it is necessary for a monomial ideal to have a linear resolution and identify all the quasi-linear quadratic monomial ideals. We define a strongly linear monomial for a monomial ideal…
In a recent work, Fouli and Lin generalized a Villarreal's result and showed that if each connected components of the line graph of a squarefree monomial ideal contains at most a unique odd cycle, then this ideal is of linear type. In this…
In this note, we study Serre's property $(S_i)$, and its relation to Alexander duality for monomial ideals in a polynomial ring over a field. We describe ideals that define the non-Cohen-Macaulay- and the non-$(S_i)$-loci of finitely…
For a polynomial ring S in n variables, we consider the natural action of the symmetric group S_n on S by permuting the variables. For an S_n-invariant monomial ideal I in S and j >= 0, we give an explicit recipe for computing the modules…
Let $I$ be a two-dimensional squarefree monomial ideal of a polynomial ring $S$. We evaluate the geometric regularity, $a_i$-invariants for $i\geq 1$ of the power $I^n$. It turns out they are all linear functions in $n$ from $n=2$.…
For each squarefree monomial ideal $I\subset S = k[x_{1},\ldots, x_{n}] $, we associate a simple graph $G_I$ by using the first linear syzygies of $I$. In cases, where $G_I$ is a cycle or a tree, we show the following are equivalent: (a) $…
We introduce a squarefree monomial ideal associated to the set of domino tilings of a $2\times n$ rectangle and proceed to study the associated minimal free resolution. In this paper, we use results of Dalili and Kummini to show that the…
We survey some recent results on the minimal graded free resolution of a square-free monomial ideal. The theme uniting these results is the point-of-view that the generators of a monomial ideal correspond to the maximal faces (the facets)…
We derive two general bounds for the depths of powers of squarefree monomial ideals corresponding to hyperforests. These bounds generalize known bounds for the depths of squarefree monomial ideals, which were given in terms of the edgewise…
Squarefree powers of edge ideals are intimately related to matchings of the underlying graph. In this paper we give bounds for the regularity of squarefree powers of edge ideals, and we consider the question of when such powers are linearly…
