For an ideal $I_{m,n}$ generated by all square-free monomials of degree $m$ in a polynomial ring $R$ with $n$ variables, we obtain a specific embedding of a canonical module of $R/I_{m,n}$ to $R/I_{m,n}$ itself. The construction of this…
The following corollary has been added: for general tetragonal curve $C$ of genus $g\ge 9$ the homogeneous coordinate ring of $C$ defined by the line bundle $K(-T)$, where $K$ is the canonical class, $T$ is the tetragonal series, is Koszul.…
Using reduction to positive characteristic and the method of Frobenius splitting of diagonals, due to Mehta and Ramanathan, it is shown that homogeneous coordinate rings for either proper and smooth toric varieties or Schubert varieties are…
In this paper, we consider homological properties of so-called graph ideals. Consider $\Gamma$ is a graph with vertices $t_1$, ..., $t_s$, without self-loops and multiple adjacencies. We can associate with such a graph an ideal…
We consider the space $\mathcal M_{q,n}$ of regular $q$-tuples of commuting nilpotent endomorphisms of $k^n$ modulo simultaneous conjugation. We show that $\mathcal M_{q,n}$ admits a natural homogeneous space structure, and that it is an…
We prove a new criterion for the homogeneous coordinate ring of a finite set of points in ${\Bbb P}^n$ to be Koszul. Like the well known criterion due to Kempf it involves only incidence conditions on linear spans of subsets of a given set.…
We prove the consistency of the following statement: for some kappa<2^{aleph_0}, there is a kappa-complete ideal on kappa such that the Boolean algebra P(kappa)/I is sigma-centered and there are Q-sets of reals.
We define holomorphic structures on canonical line bundles on the quantum projective plane. The space of holomorphic sections of these line bundles will determine the quantum homogeneous coordinate ring of $\qp^2_q$. We also show that the…
We prove that for every uncountable cardinal $\kappa$ such that $\kappa^{<\kappa}=\kappa$, the quasi-order of embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of $\kappa$-sized graphs Borel reduces to the embeddability on the $\kappa$-space of…
We compute the arithmetic ranks of the defining ideals of homogeneous coordinate rings of certain Segre products arising from elliptic curves. The cohomological dimension of these ideals varies with the characteristic of the field, though…
There is a long-standing conjecture which states that every uniform algebraic vector bundle of rank $r<2n$ on the $n$-dimensional projective space $\mathbb{P}^n$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $0$ is homogeneous. This…
In this paper, we study the Koszul property of the homogeneous coordinate ring of a generic collection of lines in $\mathbb{P}^n$ and the homogeneous coordinate ring of a collection of lines in general linear position in $\mathbb{P}^n.$ We…
Given $d\in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$, for every $\kappa=(k_1,\dots,k_n) \in \mathbb{Z}^{n}$ such that $k_i\geq 1-d$ and $k_1+\dots+k_n=-2d$, denote by $\Omega^d\mathcal{M}_{0,n}(\kappa)$ and $\mathbb{P}\Omega^d\mathcal{M}_{0,n}(\kappa)$ the…
Let $M$ be the $6$-manifold $M$ as the total space of the sphere bundle of a rank $3$ vector bundle over a simply connected closed $4$-manifold. We show that after looping $M$ is homotopy equivalent to a product of loops on spheres in…
We study (slope-)stability properties of syzygy bundles on a projective space P^N given by ideal generators of a homogeneous primary ideal. In particular we give a combinatorial criterion for a monomial ideal to have a semistable syzygy…
Let $\kappa_e(\overline{M}_{g,n})$ denote the kappa ring of $\overline{M}_{g,n}$ in codimension $e$. For $g,e\geq 0$ fixed, as the number $n$ of the markings grows large we show that the rank of $\kappa_e(\overline{M}_{g,n})$ is asymptotic…
Let $\mathbf{x}_{k \times p}$ be a $k \times p$ matrix of variables and let $\mathbb{F}[\mathbf{x}_{k \times p}]$ be the polynomial ring in these variables. Given two weak compositions $\alpha,\beta \models_0 n$ of lengths $\ell(\alpha) =…
We consider cohomogeneity one homogeneous disk bundles and adress the question when these admit a nonnegatively curved invariant metric with normal collar, i.e., such that near the boundary the metric is the product of an interval and a…
We show that if the real line is the disjoint union of kappa meager sets such that every meager set is contained in a countable union of them, then kappa = omega_1. This answers a question addressed by J. Cichon. We also prove two theorems…
