This paper can be seen as a continuation of the works contained in the recent preprints [Za], of the second author, and [Mi], of Juan Migliore. Our results are: 1). There exist codimension three artinian level algebras of type two which do…

We study the Artinian reduction $A$ of a configuration of points $X \subset {\mathbb P}^n $, and the relation of the geometry of $X$ to Lefschetz properties of $A$. Migliore initiated the study of this connection, with a particular focus on…

We study a number of conditions on the Hilbert function of a level artinian algebra which imply the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). Possibly the most important open case is whether a codimension 3 SI-sequence forces the WLP for level…

The purpose of this note is to characterize the finite Hilbert functions which force all of their artinian algebras to enjoy the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). Curiously, they turn out to be exactly those (characterized by Wiebe in $[Wi]$)…

For artinian Gorenstein algebras in codimension four and higher, it is well known that the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP) does not need to hold. For Gorenstein algebras in codimension three, it is still open whether all artinian Gorenstein…

We deal with the Weak Lefschetz property (WLP) for Artinian standard graded Gorenstein algebras of codimension $3.$ We prove that many Gorenstein sequences force the WLP for such algebras. Moreover for every Gorenstein sequence $H$ of…

We consider the conjecture that all artinian height 4 complete intersections of forms of the same degree $d$ have the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP). We translate this problem to one of studying the general hyperplane section of a certain…

In this work, we investigate the presence of the weak Lefschetz property (WLP) and Hilbert functions for various types of random standard graded Artinian algebras. If an algebra has the WLP then its Hilbert function is unimodal. Using…

An artinian graded algebra, $A$, is said to have the Weak Lefschetz property (WLP) if multiplication by a general linear form has maximal rank in every degree. A vast quantity of work has been done studying and applying this property,…

Let $\Delta$ be an (abstract) simplicial complex on $n$ vertices. One can define the Artinian monomial algebra $A(\Delta) = \Bbbk[x_1, \ldots, x_n]/ \langle x_1^2, \ldots, x_n^2, I_{\Delta} \rangle$, where $\Bbbk$ is a field of…

In this paper, we will give some geometric results using generic initial ideals for the degree reverse lex order. The first application is to the regularity of a Cohen-Macaulay algebra, and we improve a well-known bound. The main goal of…

Codimension two Artinian algebras $A$ have the strong and weak Lefschetz properties provided the characteristic is zero or greater than the socle degree. It is open to what extent such results might extend to codimension three AG algebras -…

In 1994, Orlik and Terao introduced a commutative Artinian analog S/I(A) of the Orlik-Solomon algebra of a hyperplane arrangement A to answer a question of Aomoto. A central topic of investigation in the study of Artinian algebras is the…

We study the problem of whether an arbitrary codimension three graded artinian Gorenstein algebra has the Weak Lefschetz Property. We reduce this problem to checking whether it holds for all compressed Gorenstein algebras of odd socle…

Three basic properties that standard graded artinian $k$-algebras may or may not enjoy are the Weak and Strong Lefschetz Properties and the Maximal Rank Property (respectively WLP, SLP, and MRP). In this paper we will assume that the base…

We find a sufficient condition that $\H$ is not level based on a reduction number. In particular, we prove that a graded Artinian algebra of codimension 3 with Hilbert function $\H=(h_0,h_1,..., h_{d-1}>h_d=h_{d+1})$ cannot be level if…

The weak and strong Lefschetz properties are two basic properties that Artinian algebras may have. Both Lefschetz properties may vary under small perturbations or changes of the characteristic. We study these subtleties by proposing a…

It is known that all complete intersection Artinian standard graded algebras of codimension 3 have the Weak Lefschetz Property. Unfortunately, this property does not continue to be true when you increase the number of minimal generators for…

Let A = bigoplus_{i >= 0} A_i be a standard graded Artinian K-algebra, where char K = 0. Then A has the Weak Lefschetz property if there is an element ell of degree 1 such that the multiplication times ell : A_i --> A_{i+1} has maximal…

$(1,3,6,10,15,21,28,27,27,28)$ is a level $h$-vector! This example answers negatively the open question as to whether all codimension 3 level $h$-vectors are unimodal. Moreover, using the same (simple) technique, we are able to construct…
