Many algebras are expected to have the Weak Lefschetz property though this is often very difficult to establish. We illustrate the subtlety of the problem by studying monomial and some closely related ideals. Our results exemplify the…
We study the set of common F_q-rational zeros of systems of multivariate symmetric polynomials with coefficients in a finite field F_q. We establish certain properties on these polynomials which imply that the corresponding set of zeros…
We determine a sharp lower bound for the Hilbert function in degree $d$ of a monomial algebra failing the weak Lefschetz property over a polynomial ring with $n$ variables and generated in degree $d$, for any $d\geq 2$ and $n\geq 3$. We…
We consider artinian algebras $A=\mathbb{C}[x_0,\ldots,x_m]/I$, with $I$ generated by a regular sequence of homogeneous forms of the same degree $d\geq 2$. We show that the multiplication by a general linear form from $A_{d-1}$ to $A_d$ is…
Let $A$ be a graded complete intersection over a field and $B$ the monomial complete intersection with the generators of the same degrees as $A$. The EGH conjecture says that if $I$ is a graded ideal in $A$, then there should be an ideal…
The Hilbert polynomial of a homogeneous complete intersection is determined by the degrees of the generators of the defining ideal. The degrees of the generators are not, in general, determined by the Hilbert polynomial -- but sometimes…
A standard graded artinian monomial complete intersection algebra $A=\Bbbk[x_1,x_2,\ldots,x_n]/(x_1^{a_1},x_2^{a_2},\ldots,x_n^{a_n})$, with $\Bbbk$ a field of characteristic zero, has the strong Lefschetz property due to Stanley in 1980.…
Using aritmethic conditions on affine semigroups we prove that for a simplicial toric variety of codimension 2 the property of being a set-theoretic complete intersection on binomials in characteristic $p$ holds either for all primes $p$,…
A complete intersection of n polynomials in n indeterminates has only a finite number of zeros. In this paper we address the following question: how do the zeros change when the coefficients of the polynomials are perturbed? In the first…
This paper deals with properties of the algebraic variety defined as the set of zeros of a "typical" sequence of polynomials. We consider various types of "nice" varieties: set-theoretic and ideal-theoretic complete intersections,…
For the family of graded lattice ideals of dimension 1, we establish a complete intersection criterion in algebraic and geometric terms. In positive characteristic, it is shown that all ideals of this family are binomial set theoretic…
By a result of Helton and McCullough, open bounded convex free semialgebraic sets are exactly open (matricial) solution sets D_L of a linear matrix inequality (LMI) L(X)>0. This paper gives a precise algebraic certificate for a polynomial…
For a graph G, M(G) denotes the maximum multiplicity occurring of an eigenvalue of a symmetric matrix whose zero-nonzero pattern is given by edges of G. We introduce two combinatorial graph parameters T^-(G) and T^+(G) that give a lower and…
We compute the generic initial ideal of a complete intersection of embedding dimension three with strong Lefschetz property and we show that it is an almost reverse lexicographic ideal. This enable us to give a proof for Moreno's conjecture…
We generalize some properties related to Hilbert series and Lefschetz properties of Milnor algebras of projective hypersurfaces with isolated singularities to the more general case of an almost complete intersection ideal $J$ of dimension…
Let $A_{p,r}^m(n)$ be the best constant that fulfills the following inequality: for every $m$-homogeneous polynomial $P(z) = \sum_{|\alpha|=m} a_{\alpha} z^{\alpha}$ in $n$ complex variables, $$\big( \sum_{|\alpha|=m} |a_{\alpha}|^{r}…
We show that the set of $m \times m$ complex skew-symmetric matrix polynomials of odd grade $d$, i.e., of degree at most $d$, and (normal) rank at most $2r$ is the closure of the single set of matrix polynomials with the certain, explicitly…
We determine the generic complete eigenstructures for $n \times n$ complex symmetric matrix polynomials of odd grade $d$ and rank at most $r$. More precisely, we show that the set of $n \times n$ complex symmetric matrix polynomials of odd…
