Let $\mathbb{k}$ be a field, and let $\Lambda$ be a (not necessarily finite dimensional) $\mathbb{k}$-algebra. Let $V$ be a left $\Lambda$-module such that is finite dimensional over $\mathbb{k}$. Assume further that $V$ has a weak…

Given a simple graph $G$, the artinian monomial algebra associated to $G$, denoted by $A(G)$, is defined by the edge ideal of $G$ and the squares of the variables. In this article, we classify some tadpole graphs $G$ for which $A(G)$ has or…

We deal with the Weak Lefschetz property (WLP) for Artinian standard graded Gorenstein algebras of codimension $3.$ We prove that many Gorenstein sequences force the WLP for such algebras. Moreover for every Gorenstein sequence $H$ of…

We study del Pezzo surfaces of degree 1 of the form w^2 = z^3 + Ax^6 + By^6 in the weighted projective space P_k(1,1,2,3), where k is a perfect field of characteristic not 2 or 3 and A,B \in k^*. Over a number field, we exhibit an infinite…

We characterize the monomial complete intersections in three variables satisfying the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP), as a function of the characteristic of the base field. Our result presents a surprising, and still combinatorially obscure,…

Motivated by various geometric problems, we study the nodal set of solutions to Dirac equations on manifolds, of general form. We prove that such set has Hausdorff dimension less than or equal to $n-2$, $n$ being the ambient dimension. We…

In a recent paper, F. Zanello showed that level Artinian algebras in 3 variables can fail to have the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP), and can even fail to have unimodal Hilbert function. We show that the same is true for the Artinian…

It is known that all complete intersection Artinian standard graded algebras of codimension 3 have the Weak Lefschetz Property. Unfortunately, this property does not continue to be true when you increase the number of minimal generators for…

In the paper untitled "Laplace equations and the Weak Lefschetz Property" the authors highlight the link between rational varieties satisfying a Laplace equation and artinian ideals that fail the Weak Lefschetz property. Continuing their…

Consider a complex simple Lie algebra g of rank n. Denote by \Pi a system of simple roots, by W the corresponding Weyl group, consider a reduced expression w = s_{\alpha_{1}} ... s_{\alpha_{t}} (each \alpha_{i} in \Pi) of some w \in W and…

We study the weak and strong Lefschetz properties for $R/\mathrm{in}(I_t)$, where $I_t$ is the ideal of a polynomial ring $R$ generated by the $t$-minors of an $m\times n$ matrix of indeterminates, and $\mathrm{in}(I_t)$ denotes the initial…

Most applications of the hard Lefschetz theorem related to combinatorial properties of simplicial complexes involve their $h$-vectors. In the context of positivity properties involving $h$-vectors of flag spheres, $f$-vectors with a…

We introduce a family of standard bigraded binomial Artinian Gorenstein algebras, whose combinatoric structure characterizes the ones presented by quadrics. These algebras provide, for all socle degree grater than two and in sufficiently…

Migliore-Mir\'o-Roig-Nagel [Trans. A.M.S. 2011, arXiv: 0811.1023] show that the weak Lefschetz property (WLP) can fail for an ideal I in K[x_1,x_2,x_3,x_4] generated by powers of linear forms. This is in contrast to the analogous situation…

We study skew inverse power series extensions R[[y^{-1};tau,delta]], where R is a noetherian ring equipped with an automorphism tau and a tau-derivation delta. We find that these extensions share many of the well known features of…

We introduce the $k$-strong Lefschetz property ($k$-SLP) and the $k$-weak Lefschetz property ($k$-WLP) for graded Artinian $K$-algebras, which are generalizations of the Lefschetz properties. The main results obtained in this paper are as…

Let $d_1,...,d_r$ be positive integers and let $I = (F_1,...,F_r)$ be an ideal generated by general forms of degrees $d_1,...,d_r$, respectively, in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables. When all the degrees are the same we give a…

We investigate the Weak Lefschetz Properties for modules whose minimal free resolutions are given by generalized Kosuzl complexes in dimension three through a careful study of their Betti numbers and the symmetry and unimodality of their…

Given a shifted order ideal $U$, we associate to it a family of simplicial complexes $(\Delta_t(U))_{t\geq 0}$ that we call squeezed complexes. In a special case, our construction gives squeezed balls that were defined and used by Kalai to…

Let R be a ring and n,k be two non-negative integers. As an extension of several known notions, we introduce and study (n,k)-weak cotorsion modules using the class of right R-modules with n-weak flat dimensions at most k. Various examples…
