In 2017, Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy defined the van der Waerden complex ${\tt vdW}(n,k)$ to be the simplicial complex whose facets correspond to all the arithmetic sequences on the set $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ of a fixed length $k$. To…
We introduce the van der Waerden complex ${\rm vdW}(n,k)$ defined as the simplicial complex whose facets correspond to arithmetic progressions of length $k$ in the vertex set $\{1, 2, \ldots, n\}$. We show the van der Waerden complex ${\rm…
Let $\Delta$ be an (abstract) simplicial complex on $n$ vertices. One can define the Artinian monomial algebra $A(\Delta) = \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]/ \langle x_1^2, \ldots, x_n^2, I_{\Delta} \rangle$, where $\Bbbk$ is a field of…
The basic sequence of a homogeneous ideal $I\sset R=k[\seq{x}{1}{r}]$ defining an Artinian graded ring $A=R/I$ not having the weak Lefschetz property has the property that the first term of the last part is less than the last term of the…
An artinian graded algebra, $A$, is said to have the Weak Lefschetz property (WLP) if multiplication by a general linear form has maximal rank in every degree. A vast quantity of work has been done studying and applying this property,…
Assume sigma is a face of a Gorenstein* simplicial complex D. We investigate the question of whether the Weak Lefschetz Property of the Stanley-Reisner ring k[D] (over an infinite field k) is equivalent to the same property of the…
Let $A=\pmb k[x_1,...,x_n]/{(x_1^d,...,x_n^d)}$, where $\pmb k$ is an infinite field. If $\pmb k$ has characteristic zero, then Stanley proved that $A$ has the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). Henceforth, $\pmb k$ has positive characteristic…
We show that an Artinian quotient of K[x, y, z] by an ideal I generated by powers of linear forms has the Weak Lefschetz property. If the syzygy bundle of I is semistable this follows from results of Brenner-Kaid; our proof works without…
In this work a combinatorial approach towards the weak Lefschetz property is developed that relates this property to enumerations of signed perfect matchings as well as to enumerations of signed families of non-intersecting lattice paths in…
Ehrenborg, Govindaiah, Park, and Readdy recently introduced the van der Waerden complex, a pure simplicial complex whose facets correspond to arithmetic progressions. Using techniques from combinatorial commutative algebra, we classify when…
Generalizing the strong Lefschetz property for an $\mathbb{N}$-graded algebra, we introduce the multigraded strong Lefschetz property for an $\mathbb{N}^m$-graded algebra. We show that, for $\mathbf{a} \in \mathbb{N}^m_+$, the generic…
In this paper, we investigate the weak Lefschetz property for tensor products of Artinian monomial algebras and complete quadratic monomial algebras. As an application, we classify the weak Lefschetz property of the Artinian algebras…
In this paper, we prove that any Artinian complete intersection homogeneous ideal $I$ in $K[x_0,\cdots,x_n]$ generated by $n+1$ forms of degree $d\ge 2$ satisfies the weak Lefschetz property (WLP) in degree $t< d+\lceil \frac{d}{n} \rceil$.…
In this paper, we study Lefschetz properties of Artinian reductions of Stanley-Reisner rings of balanced simplicial $3$-polytopes. A $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex is said to be balanced if its graph is $d$-colorable. If a…
Let A = bigoplus_{i >= 0} A_i be a standard graded Artinian K-algebra, where char K = 0. Then A has the Weak Lefschetz property if there is an element ell of degree 1 such that the multiplication times ell : A_i --> A_{i+1} has maximal…
Given a base field $\Bbbk$ of characteristic zero, for each graph $G$, we associate the artinian algebra $A(G)$ defined by the edge ideal of $G$ and the squares of the variables. We study the weak Lefschetz property of $A(G)$. We classify…
Van der Waerden's theorem states that for any positive integers $k$ and $r$, there exists a smallest value $n = w(k,r)$, called the van der Waerden number, such that every $r$-coloring of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ contains a monochromatic $k$-term…
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We apply a theorem of C. Han to give an explicit description for the weak Lefschetz property of the monomial Artinian complete intersection A = K[X,Y,Z]/(X^d,Y^d,Z^d) in terms…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a standard graded Artinian ring defined by an m-full ideal, to have the weak Lefschetz property in terms of graded Betti numbers. This is a generalization of a theorem of Wiebe for…
We study the problem of whether an arbitrary codimension three graded artinian Gorenstein algebra has the Weak Lefschetz Property. We reduce this problem to checking whether it holds for all compressed Gorenstein algebras of odd socle…
