This paper gives a complete primary decomposition of the first, that is, the smallest, Mayr-Meyer ideal, its radical, and the intersection of its minimal components. The particular membership problem which makes the Mayr-Meyer ideals'…
Mayr and Meyer found ideals with the doubly exponential ideal membership property. In the analysis of the associated primes of these ideals (in math.AC/0209344), a new family of ideals arose. This new family is presented and analyzed in…
We give a description of the minimal primes of the ideal generated by the 2 x 2 adjacent minors of a generic matrix. We also compute the complete prime decomposition of the ideal of adjacent m x m minors of an m x n generic matrix when the…
This paper has two aims. The first is to study ideals of minors of matrices whose entries are among the variables of a polynomial ring. Specifically, we describe matrices whose ideals of minors of a given size are prime. The main result in…
We introduce differential primary decompositions for ideals in a commutative ring. Ideal membership is characterized by differential conditions. The minimal number of conditions needed is the arithmetic multiplicity. Minimal differential…
In this paper, we provide a complete description of the minimal primes of ideals generated by adjacent $2$-minors, in terms of the so-called admissible sets and associated lattice ideals. We prove that for these ideals, the properties of…
This paper investigates the doubly exponential ideal membership property of the Mayr-Meyer ideals from the point of view of their associated primes. A doubly-exponential upper bound on the set of associated primes is proved. In the paper a…
An ideal in a polynomial ring encodes a system of linear partial differential equations with constant coefficients. Primary decomposition organizes the solutions to the PDE. This paper develops a novel structure theory for primary ideals in…
We reprove and generalize a result of Moh which gives a lower bound on the minimal number of generators of an ideal in a power series ring in three variables x,y,z over a field k. As a consequence, in each characteristic of the field k, we…
Let $F$ be a non-negatively graded free module over a polynomial ring $\mathbb{K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ generated by $m$ basis elements. Let $M$ be a submodule of $F$ generated by elements in $F$ with degrees bounded by $D$ and dim $F/M$=$r$. We…
Given a polynomial ring $C$ over a field and proper ideals $I$ and $J$ whose generating sets involve disjoint variables, we determine how to embed the associated primes of each power of $I+J$ into a collection of primes described in terms…
A minor is principal means it is defined by the same row and column indices. Let $X$ be a square generic matrix, $K[X]$ the polynomial ring in entries of $X$, over an algebraically closed field, $K$. For fixed $t\leq n$, let $\mathfrak P_t$…
This article is concerned with the number of generators of perfect ideals J in regular local rings (R,m). If J is sufficiently large modulo $m^n$, a bound is established depending only on n and the projective dimension of J. More ambitious…
Let $I,J$ be componentwise linear ideals in a polynomial ring $S$. We study necessary and sufficient conditions for $I+J$ to be componentwise linear. We provide a complete characterization when $\dim S=2$. As a consequence, any…
Recent results of Kahle and Miller give a method of constructing primary decompositions of binomial ideals by first constructing "mesoprimary decompositions" determined by their underlying monoid congruences. These mesoprimary…
For a positive integer $d$, a non-negative integer $n$ and a non-negative integer $h\leq n$, we study the number $C_{n}^{(d)}$ of principal ideals; and the number $C_{n,h}^{(d)}$ of principal ideals generated by an element of rank $h$, in…
Ananyan and Hochster proved the existence of a function $\Phi(m,d)$ such that any graded ideal $I$ generated by $m$ forms of degree at most $d$ in a standard graded polynomial ring satisfies $\mathrm{reg}(I) \le \Phi(m,d)$. Relatedly,…

Ideals generated by adjacent 2-minors are studied. First, the problem when such an ideal is a prime ideal as well as the problem when such an ideal possesses a quadratic Gr\"obner basis is solved. Second, we describe explicitly a primary…
We introduce a class of ideals generated by a set of 2-minors of $m\times n$-matrix of indeterminates indexed by a pair of graphs. This class of ideals is a natural common generalization of binomial edge ideals and ideals generated by…
