Let $I$ be a monomial ideal of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,...,x_4]$ over a field $K$. Then $S/I$ is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay if and only if $S/I$ is pretty clean. In particular, if $S/I$ is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay then $I$ is a…

Let $K$ be a field and $S=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$. Let $I$ be a monomial ideal of $S$ and $u_1,\ldots, u_r$ be monomials in $S$ which form a filter-regular sequence on $S/I$. We show that $S/I$ is pretty clean if and only if $S/(I,u_1,\ldots,…

Let $K$ be a field and $I$ a monomial ideal of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,..., x_n]$ generated by monomials $u_1,u_2,..., u_t$. We show that $S/I$ is pretty clean if either: 1) $u_1,u_2,..., u_t$ is a filter-regular sequence, 2)…

Every quotient R/I of a semigroup ring R by a radical monomial ideal I has a unique minimal injective-like resolution by direct sums of quotients of R modulo prime monomial ideals. The quotient R/I is Cohen-Macaulay if and only if every…

Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$. We show that if $G$ is a connected graph with a basic $5$-cycle $C$, then $G$ is a sequentially Cohen-Macaulay graph if and only if there exists a shedding…

Let $R=K[x_1,...,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and let $J$ be a matroidal ideal of degree $d$ in $R$. In this paper, we study the class of sequentially Cohen-Macaulay matroidal ideals. In particular, all…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $k$-clean monomial ideals as an extension of clean monomial ideals and present some homological and combinatorial properties of them. Using the hierarchal structure of $k$-clean ideals, we show…

We study basic properties of monomial ideals with linear quotients. It is shown that if the monomial ideal $I$ has linear quotients, then the squarefree part of $I$ and each component of $I$ as well as $\mm I$ have linear quotients, where…

Monomial ideals which are generic with respect to either their generators or irreducible components have minimal free resolutions derived from simplicial complexes. For a generic monomial ideal, the associated primes satisfy a saturated…

Scattered over the past few years have been several occurrences of simplicial complexes whose topological behavior characterize the Cohen-Macaulay property for quotients of polynomial rings by arbitrary (not necessarily squarefree) monomial…

Let $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\deg x_i = 1$ and $I \subset S$ a homogeneous ideal of $S$ with $\dim S/I = d$. The Hilbert series of $S/I$ is of the form…

In the present paper we investigate a question stemming from a long-standing conjecture of Vasconcelos: given a generically a complete intersection perfect ideal I in a regular local ring R, is it true that if I/I^2 (or R/I^2) is…

We compute the minimal primary decomposition for completely squarefree lexsegment ideals. We show that critical squarefree monomial ideals are sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. As an application, we give a complete characterization of the…

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) $…

Given an arbitrary integer $d>0$, we construct a homogeneous ideal $I$ of the polynomial ring $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_{3d}]$ in $3d$ variables over a filed $K$ for which $S/I$ is a Cohen--Macaulay ring of dimension $d$ with the property that,…

Let $C \subset {\bf N}^d$ be an affine semigroup, and $R=K[C]$ its semigroup ring. This paper is a collection of various results on "$C$-graded" $R$-modules, especially, monomial ideals. For example, we show the following: If $R$ is normal…

The main result of the paper states that for a graded ideal I in a polynomial ring R over a field of characteristic 0, the Hilbert functions of the local cohomology modules of R/I and of R/Gin(I) coincide if and only if R/I is sequentially…
