Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring. We define the minimal $j$-multiplicity and almost minimal $j$-multiplicity of an arbitrary $R$-ideal on any finite $R$-module. For any ideal $I$ with minimal $j$-multiplicity or almost minimal…
In this article we study inequalities of ideal norms. We prove that in a subring $R$ of a number field every ideal can be generated by at most $3$ elements if and only if the ideal norm satisfies $N(IJ) \geq N(I)N(J)$ for every pair of…
Let I be either the ideal of maximal minors or the ideal of 2-minors of a row graded or column graded matrix of linear forms L. In two previous papers we showed that I is a Cartwright-Sturmfels ideal, that is, the multigraded generic…
The main achievement of this paper is to provide a structure theorem for Artinian, Gorenstein local rings with the property that the square of the maximal ideal is generated by two elements. The moduli problem for this class of local…
The well know theorem of Tverberg states that if n > (d+1)(r-1) then one can partition any set of n points in R^d to r disjoint subsets whose convex hulls have a common point. The numbers T(d,r) = (d + 1)(r - 1) + 1 are known as Tverberg…
Let $P_1,\dots,P_k \colon {\bf Z} \to {\bf Z}$ be polynomials of degree at most $d$ for some $d \geq 1$, with the degree $d$ coefficients all distinct, and admissible in the sense that for every prime $p$, there exists integers $n,m$ such…
We study the ideals of the partition, Brauer, and Jones monoid, establishing various combinatorial results on generating sets and idempotent generating sets via an analysis of their Graham--Houghton graphs. We show that each proper ideal of…
We study an inductive method of computing initial ideals and Gr\"obner bases for families of ideals in a polynomial ring. This method starts from a given set of pairs $(I,J)$ where $I$ is any ideal and $J$ is a monomial ideal contained in…
Let $H=\langle n_1, \ldots ,n_4\rangle$ be a numerical semigroup generated by $4$ elements, which is symmetric and let $k[H]$ be the semigroup ring of $H$ over a field $k$. H. Bresinski proved that the defining ideal of $k[H]$ is minimally…
For a commutative ring R we investigate the property that the sets of minimal primes of finitely generated ideals of R is always finite. We prove this property passes to polynomial ring extensions (in an arbitrary number of variables) over…
The classical involutive division theory by Janet decomposes in the same way both the ideal and the escalier. The aim of this paper, following Janet's approach, is to discuss the combinatorial properties of involutive divisions, when…
Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring with infinite residue field. Let $I$ be an ideal of $R$ that has analytic spread $\ell(I)=d$, satisfies the $G_d$ condition, the weak Artin-Nagata property $AN_{d-2}^-$…
The powers ${\mathfrak m}^n$ of the maximal ideal $\mathfrak m$ of a local Noetherian ring $R$ are known to satisfy certain homological properties for large values of $n$. For example, the homomorphism $R\to R/{\mathfrak m}^n$ is Golod for…
Let K be a field and let M_n(K) denote the space of n x n matrices with entries in K. Let M be a subspace of M_n(K) of dimension d with the property that there are elements in M with non-zero determinant. Given a basis of M, we define the…
Let $R$ be a standard graded polynomial ring over a field $k$. The paper focuses on homogeneous ideals $J \subset R$ of codimension $2$ generated by three forms of the same degree $d \geq 2$ that are almost Cohen--Macaulay, i.e., of…
Consider the polynomial ring $R_n = k[x_1,...,x_n]$, where $k$ is a field. Let $m = (x_1,...,x_n)$ and $I$ be an $m$-primary monomial ideal in $R$. We consider the problem of determining whether such ideals are in the Gorenstein liasion…
Let $R$ be a Noetherian local ring and $m$ a positive integer. Let $I$ be the ideal of $R$ generated by the maximal minors of an $m \times (m + 1)$ matrix $M$ with entries in $R$. Assuming that the grade of the ideal generated by the…
Let $(R,\mathfrak m,\mathsf k)$ be either a fiber product or an artinian stretched Gorenstein ring, with $\operatorname{ch}(\mathsf k)\neq 2$ in the latter case. We prove that the ideals of minors of the minimal free resolution of any…
Let $D$ be an integrally closed domain with quotient field $K$ and $n$ a positive integer. We give a characterization of the polynomials in $K[X]$ which are integer-valued over the set of matrices $M_n(D)$ in terms of their divided…
In a commutative ring $R$ with unity, given an ideal $I$ of $R$, Anderson and Badawi in 2011 introduced the invariant $\omega(I)$, which is the minimal integer $n$ for which $I$ is an $n$-absorbing ideal of $R$. In the specific case that $R…
