We connect k-triangulations of a convex n-gon to the theory of Schubert polynomials. We use this connection to prove that the simplicial complex with k-triangulations as facets is a vertex-decomposable triangulated sphere, and we give a new…
This paper has two related parts. The first generalizes Hochster's formula on resolutions of Stanley-Reisner rings to a colorful version, applicable to any proper vertex-coloring of a simplicial complex. The second part examines a universal…
We introduce a new type of $n$-dimensional generalization of symmetric $(v,k,\lambda)$ block designs. We prove upper bounds on the dimension $n$ in terms of $v$ and $k$. We also define the corresponding concept of $n$-dimensional difference…
The face ring of a simplicial complex modulo m generic linear forms is shown to have finite local cohomology if and only if the link of every face of dimension m or more is `nonsingular', i.e., has the homology of a wedge of spheres of the…
Let X be a smooth algebraic curve of genus g>=2. A stable vector bundle over X of degree d, rank n with at least k sections is called a Brill-Noether bundle of type (n,d,k). By tensoring coherent systems, we prove that most of the known…
The theory of $N$-complexes is a generalization of both ordinary chain complexes and graded objects. Hence it yields deeper insight in the structure of these and offers a broader range of applications. This work generalizes the tensor…
This paper introduces two new notions of graded linear resolution and graded linear quotients, which generalize the concepts of linear resolution property and linear quotient for modules over the polynomial ring $A=k[x_1, \dots ,x_n]$.…
We study simplicial complexes with a given number of vertices whose Stanley-Reisner ring has the minimal possible Betti numbers. We find that these simplicial complexes have very special combinatorial and topological structures. For…
The paper is devoted to the classification of entire solutions to the Cahn-Hilliard equation $-\Delta u = u-u^3-\delta$ in $\R^N$, with particular interest in those solutions whose nodal set is either bounded or contained in a cylinder. The…
A modest Kan complex is a modest simplicial set which has a right lifting property with respect to horn inclusions $\Lambda_k[n] \to \Delta[n]$. This paper develops the categorical logical that is required to show that there is a univalent…
We show that for a vertex decomposable simplicial complex $\Delta$, the Rees algebra of $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a normal Cohen-Macaulay domain. As consequences, we show that any squarefree weakly polymatroidal ideal is normal and we obtain…
In [WW1] and [WW2], the author constructed the complex associated to 1-regular functions. This complex is the equivalent of Dolbeault's complex for holomorphic functions if we replace the Cauchy-Riemann equations by the Cauchy-Fueter…
Similarly to $\beta$-adic van der Corput sequences, abstract van der Corput sequences can be defined for abstract numeration systems. Under some assumptions, these sequences are low discrepancy sequences. The discrepancy function is…
In this paper we extend one direction of Fr\"oberg's theorem on a combinatorial classification of quadratic monomial ideals with linear resolutions. We do this by generalizing the notion of a chordal graph to higher dimensions with the…
We show that, under certain constraints, the Stanley-Reisner ring of an infinite simplicial complex is Cohen-Macaulay in the sense of ideals and weak Bourbaki unmixed. We apply this result to prove the wanted claim -- that initial complexes…
In this paper we present characterizations of sequentially Cohen-Macaulay modules in terms of systems of parameters, which are generalizations of well-known results on Cohen-Macaulay and generalized Cohen-Macaulay modules. The sequentially…
In this paper, we study a class $\mathcal{C}$ of squarefree monomial ideals $I\subseteq R=\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ over a field $\mathbb{K}$, defined by the condition that $\dim R/I$ equals the maximum degree of the minimal generators of…
We construct a monoidal category $\mathscr{C}_{w,v}$ which categorifies the doubly-invariant algebra $^{N'(w)}\mathbb{C}[N]^{N(v)}$ associated with Weyl group elements $w$ and $v$. It gives, after a localization, the coordinate algebra…
We prove two results about vector bundles on singular algebraic surfaces. First, on proper surfaces there are vector bundles of rank two with arbitrarily large second Chern number and fixed determinant. Second, on separated normal surfaces…
Recent work by Miyashita and Varbaro classified the canonical traces of Stanley--Reisner rings that are Gorenstein on the punctured spectrum, under the Cohen--Macaulay assumption. The purpose of this paper is to generalize the result to the…
