We investigate the structure of ideals generated by binomials (polynomials with at most two terms) and the schemes and varieties associated to them. The class of binomial ideals contains many classical examples from algebraic geometry, and…
For four elements of a Noetherian ring we construct complexes of free modules of length three (resp. five) by an explicit description of the homomorphisms of the free modules. We provide exactness criteria for them. As an application we use…
We introduce the class of principal symmetric ideals, which are ideals generated by the orbit of a single polynomial under the action of the symmetric group. Fixing the degree of the generating polynomial, this class of ideals is…
We compute the linear strand of the minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by k x k sub-permanents of an n x n generic matrix and of the ideal generated by square-free monomials of degree k. The latter calculation gives the full…
We generalize the theory of logarithmic derivations through a self-contained study of modules here dubbed tangential idealizers. We establish reflexiveness criteria for such modules, provided the ring is a factorial domain. As a main…
Without any restrictions on the base field, we compute the hull and prove a conjecture of Eisenbud and Sturmfels giving an unmixed decomposition of a cellular binomial ideal. Over an algebraically closed field, we further obtain an explicit…
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…
In this paper, we investigate the structure of the saturation of ideals generated by sparse homogeneous polynomials over a projective toric variety $X$ with respect to the irrelevant ideal of $X$. As our main results, we establish a duality…
Let $ X $ be an $ m \times n $ matrix of distinct indeterminates over a field $ K $, where $ m \le n $. Set the polynomial ring $ K[X] := K[X_{ij} : 1 \le i \le m, 1 \le j \le n] $. Let $ 1 \le k < l \le n $ be such that $ l - k + 1 \ge m…
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…
Given a sequence of related modules $M_n$ over a sequence of related Noetherian polynomial rings, where each $M_n$ is a representation of the symmetric group on $n$ letters, one may ask how to simultaneously compute an equivariant free…
A graph-theoretic method, simpler than existing ones, is used to characterize the minimal set of monomial generators for the integral closure of any algebra of polynomials generated by quadratic monomials. The toric ideal of relations…
The notion of a matrix factorization was introduced by Eisenbud in the commutative case in his study of bounded (periodic) free resolutions over complete intersections. In this work, we extend the notion of (homogeneous) matrix…
Let $R=k[x,y,z]$ be a standard graded $3$-variable polynomial ring, where $k$ denotes any field. We study grade $3$ homogeneous ideals $I \subseteq R$ defining compressed rings with socle $k(-s) \oplus k(-2s+1)$, where $s \geq3$ is some…
For positive integers m >= n >= p, we compute the GL_m x GL_n-equivariant description of the local cohomology modules of the polynomial ring S of functions on the space of m x n matrices, with support in the ideal of p x p minors. Our…
We classify (up to quasi-isomorphism) the free differential modules whose homology is equal to a given module $M$ by developing a theory for deforming an arbitrary free complex into a differential module. We use an iterative approach to…
We encode the binomials belonging to the toric ideal $I_A$ associated with an integral $d \times n$ matrix $A$ using a short sum of rational functions as introduced by Barvinok \cite{bar,newbar}. Under the assumption that $d,n$ are fixed,…
Let $R=\Bbbk[x_1,\..., x_n]$ and $M=R^s/I$ a multigraded squarefree module. We discuss the construction of cochain complexes associated to $M$ and we show how to interpret homological invariants of $M$ in terms of topological computations.…
In this paper, we prove a result similar to results of Itoh and Hong-Ulrich, proving that integral closure of an ideal is compatible with specialization by a general element of that ideal for ideals of height at least two in a large class…
Using divisibility relations between the generators of a square-free monomial ideal $I$, we describe divisibility relations between the generators of the second power $I^2$. We then employ discrete Morse theory to produce a cellular free…
