In the first part of this paper we study scrollers and linearly joined varieties. A particular class of varieties, of important interest in classical Geometry are Cohen--Macaulay varieties of minimal degree. They appear naturally studying…

For an arithmetically Cohen--Macaulay subscheme of projective space, there is a well-known bound for the highest degree of a minimal generator for the defining ideal of the subscheme, in terms of the Hilbert function. We prove a natural…

We study the generic tropical initial ideals of a positively graded Cohen-Macaulay algebra $R$ over an algebraically closed field $\mathbf{k}$. Building on work of R\"omer and Schmitz, we give a formula for each initial ideal, and we…

Let $(A,\mathfrak{m})$ be an analytically unramified Cohen-Macaulay local ring and let $\mathfrak{a}$ be an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in $A$. If $I$ is an ideal in $A$ then let $I^*$ be the integral closure of $I$ in $A$. Let…

Let $k$ be a field. We determine the ideals $I$ in a finitely generated graded $k$-algebra $A$, whose associated graded rings are isomorphic to $A$. Also we compute the graded local cohomologies of the Rees rings $A[I t]$ and give the…

By definition, an $\m$-primary ideal $I$ in a 2-dimensional regular local ring $(R, \m)$ is contracted if $I=R \cap IR[\m/x]$ for some $x \in \m \setminus \m^2$. Contracted ideals have been introduced by Zariski and used for proving the…

To any toric ideal $I_A$, encoded by an integer matrix $A$, we associate a matroid structure called {\em the bouquet graph} of $A$ and introduce another toric ideal called {\em the bouquet ideal} of $A$. We show how these objects capture…

We study algebras k[x_1,...,x_n]/I which admit a grading by a subsemigroup of N^d such that every graded component is a one-dimensional k-vector space. V.I.~Arnold and coworkers proved that for d = 1 and n <= 3 there are only finitely many…

We investigate when the Rees algebra of an integrally closed $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal in a regular local ring is a Cohen-Macaulay normal domain. While this property always holds in dimension two, it fails in general in higher…

In this paper we study the (Cohen-Macaulay) type of orders over Dedekind domains in \'etale algebras. We provide a bound for the type, and give formulas to compute it. We relate the type of the overorders of a given order to the size of…

We show that for a vertex decomposable simplicial complex $\Delta$, the Rees algebra of $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a normal Cohen-Macaulay domain. As consequences, we show that any squarefree weakly polymatroidal ideal is normal and we obtain…

The overall goal is to approach the Cohen--Macaulay property of the special fiber $\mathcal{F}(I)$ of an equigenerated homogeneous ideal $I$ in a standard graded ring over an infinite field. When the ground ring is assumed to be local, the…

Inspired by the notion of K\"onig graphs we introduce graded ideals of K\"onig type with respect to a monomial order $<$. It is shown that if $I$ is of K\"onig type, then the Cohen--Macaulay property of $\ini_<(I)$ does not depend on 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…

Let $R$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ a strongly Cohen-Macaulay ideal of $R$. We show that $R/{\rm Ann}_R(I)$ is a maximal Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module by means of the delta-invariant. Also it is shown that there exists a Cohen-Macaulay…

For $\Bbbk$ a field, let $X$ a $m \times n$ matrix of variables and $S=\Bbbk[X].$ We consider the determinantal ideal $I_2 \subseteq S$ generated by the $2$-minors of $X.$ In this paper we find a suitable monomial order over $S$ such that…

The study of the edge ideal $I(D_{G})$ of a weighted oriented graph $D_{G}$ with underlying graph $G$ started in the context of Reed-Muller type codes. We generalize a Cohen-Macaulay construction for $I(D_{G})$, which Villarreal gave for…

Our focus in this paper is in effective computation of the core core(I) of an ideal I which is defined to be the intersection of all minimal reductions of I. The first main result is a closed formula for the graded core(m) of the maximal…

Several known constructions relate initial degenerations of projective toric varieties and Grassmannians to regular subdivisions of appropriate point configurations. We define a general framework which allows for partial generalizations of…

The holonomic rank of an A-hypergeometric system $H_A(\beta)$ is conjectured to be independent of the parameter vector $\beta$ if and only if the toric ideal $I_A$ is Cohen Macaulay. We prove this conjecture in the case that $I_A$ is…
