We apply the methods of algebraic reliability to the study of percolation on trees. To a complete $k$-ary tree $T_{k,n}$ of depth $n$ we assign a monomial ideal $I_{k,n}$ on $\sum_{i=1}^n k^i$ variables and $k^n$ minimal monomial…
We give a complete description of the cone of Betti diagrams over a standard graded hypersurface ring of the form k[x,y]/<q>, where q is a homogeneous quadric. We also provide a finite algorithm for decomposing Betti diagrams, including…
We initiate a classification of complex polynomials f of degree d having the top Betti number of the general fibre close to the maximum. We find a range in which the polynomial must have isolated singularities and another range where it may…
We study the computability degree of real numbers arising as $L^2$-Betti numbers or $L^2$-torsion of groups, parametrised over the Turing degree of the word problem.
We give a numerical characterization of the possible extremal Betti numbers (values as well as positions) of any homogeneous ideal in a polynomial ring over a field.
This article proves the existence of a bound on the sum of local Betti numbers of a real analytic germ by a polynomial function of its multiplicity. This result can be interpreted as a localization of the classical Oleinik-Petrovsky bound…
We show that in the presence of a geometric condition such as non-negative Ricci curvature, the distributional category of a manifold may be used to bound invariants, such as the first Betti number and macroscopic dimension, from above.…
We introduce an upper bound of the Betti numbers of a compact Riemannian manifold given integral bounds on the average of the lowest eigenvalues of the curvature operator. We then establish a new curvature condition for the Betti numbers to…
We investigate the large values of class numbers of cubic fields, showing that one can find arbitrary long sequences of "close" abelian cubic number fields with class numbers as large as possible. We also give a first step toward an…
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…
In this note we prove the relation between Betti numbers of an Arf semigroup $S$ and its blowup $S'$ in the case when they have the same multiplicity $n$. The relation is then $\beta_{i,s}(S')=\beta_{i,{s+(i+1)n}}(S)$.
We derive a uniform bound for the total betti number of a closed manifold in terms of a Ricci curvature lower bound, a conjugate radius lower bound and a diameter upper bound. The result is based on an angle version of Toponogov comparison…
Using a method of F\'elix and Thomas we compute the Betti numbers of unordered configuration spaces of the torus.
The starting point is the class of the following simplicial complexes $\Delta$ with 2-linear resolutions. The facets of $\Delta$ are $F_1,\ldots,F_n$, and we demand that for each $i$ $F_i\cap (F_1\cup \cdots\cup F_{i-1}\cup…
Boij-S\"oderberg theory describes the scalar multiples of Betti diagrams of graded modules over a polynomial ring as a linear combination of pure diagrams with positive coefficients. There are a few results that describe Boij-S\"oderberg…
The Buchsbaum-Eisenbud-Horrocks Conjecture predicts that if M is a non-zero module of finite length and finite projective dimension over a local ring R of dimension d, then the i-th Betti number of M is at least d choose i. This conjecture…
We determine the Betti numbers of the Springer fibers in type A. To do this, we construct a cell decomposition of the Springer fibers. The codimension of the cells is given by an analogue of the Coxeter length. This makes our cell…
An $n$-dimensional Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over a field $\mathbb{F}$ of characteristic two is said to be of Vergne type if there is a basis $e_1,\dots,e_n$ such that $[e_1,e_i]=e_{i+1}$ for all $2\leq i \leq n-1$ and $[e_i,e_j] =…
In this paper, we introduce new general frameworks for estimating the maximal dimension of Hilbert cubes contained in finite truncations of arbitrary sets. As applications, we investigate Hilbert cubes in a range of arithmetic sets,…
We consider the open problem of determining the graded Betti numbers for fat point subschemes supported at general points of the projective plane. We relate this problem to the open geometric problem of determining the splitting type of the…
