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…
In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient combinatorial condition for a monomial ideal to have a linear resolution over fields of characteristic 2. We also give a new proof of Fr\"oberg's theorem over fields of characteristic 2.
We construct two families of free resolutions that resolve the ideals of certain opposite Schubert varieties restricted to the big open cell. We conjecture that these examples have genericity properties translating to structure theorems for…
Hochster established the existence of a commutative noetherian ring $\Cal R$ and a universal resolution $\Bbb U$ of the form $0\to \Cal R^{e}\to \Cal R^{f}\to \Cal R^{g}\to 0$ such that for any commutative noetherian ring $S$ and any…
It has been shown recently that monomial maps in a large class respecting the action of the infinite symmetric group have, up to symmetry, finitely generated kernels. We study the simplest nontrivial family in this class: the maps given by…
Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero, let $I \subset S = K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a homogeneous ideal, and let $\partial(I)$ be its gradient ideal. We study the relationship between $\mathrm{reg}\,I$ and $\mathrm{reg}\,\partial(I)$. While…
This article will appear in the proceedings of the AMS Summer Institute in Algebraic Geometry at Santa Cruz, July 1995. The topic is toric ideals, by which I mean the defining ideals of subvarieties of affine or projective space which are…
This paper provides a formula for the Mather-Jacobian multiplier ideals of torus invariant ideals on (not necessarily normal) toric varieties that generalizes Howald's formula for the multiplier ideal of monomial ideals in a polynomial…
Given a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring over a field, we define the LCM-dual of the given ideal. We show good properties of LCM-duals. Including the isomorphism between the special fiber of LCM-dual and the special fiber of given…
Alexander duality has, in the past, made its way into commutative algebra through Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial complexes. This has the disadvantage that one is limited to squarefree monomial ideals. The notion of Alexander duality is…
We construct a simplified resolution for the trivial G-module Z, where G is a finite abelian group, and compare it with the standard resolution. We use it to calculate cohomologies of irreducible G-lattices and their duals.
In this paper we develop a theory of monomial preorders, which differ from the classical notion of monomial orders in that they allow ties between monomials. Since for monomial preorders, the leading ideal is less degenerate than for…
In this paper we study monomial ideals attached to posets, introduce generalized Hibi rings and investigate their algebraic and homological properties. The main tools to study these objects are Groebner basis theory, the concept of…
Assume that $X$ is an affine toric variety of characteristic $p > 0$. Let $\Delta$ be an effective toric $Q$-divisor such that $K_X+\Delta$ is $Q$-Cartier with index not divisible by $p$ and let $\phi_{\Delta}:F^e_* O_X \to O_X$ be the…
This note proves the existence of universal rational parametrizations. The description involves homogeneous coordinates on a toric variety coming from a lattice polytope. We first describe how smooth toric varieties lead to universal…
In this article we prove that every toric ideal associated with a gap-free graph $G$ has a squarefree lexicographic initial ideal. Moreover, in the particular case when the complementary graph of $G$ is chordal (i.e. when the edge ideal of…
In this paper, we prove that every binomial ideal in a polynomial ring over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero admits a canonical primary decomposition into binomial ideals. Moreover, we prove that this special…
Let G be a complex semisimple Lie group. The aim of this article is to compare two basis for G-modules, namely the standard monomial basis and the dual canonical basis. In particular, we give a sufficient condition for a standard monomial…
This short note solves the following problem: Given a map of normal toric varieties corresponding to a coherent subdivision of a cone, find an ideal such that the given map is the blowup of that ideal.
In dimension two, we study complete monomial ideals combinatorially, their Rees algebras and develop effective means to find their defining equations.
