Let $(R, {\mathfrak m})$ be a Noetherian local ring and let $I$ be an $R$-ideal. Inspired by the work of H\"ubl and Huneke, we look for conditions that guarantee the Cohen-Macaulayness of the special fiber ring ${\mathcal F}={\mathcal…
We show that the h-vector of a ladder determinantal ring cogenerated by M=[u_1|v_1] is log-concave. Thus we prove an instance of a conjecture of Stanley, resp. Conca and Herzog
Let $\Delta$ be a simplicial complex. We study the expansions of $\Delta$ mainly to see how the algebraic and combinatorial properties of $\Delta$ and its expansions are related to each other. It is shown that $\Delta$ is Cohen-Macaulay,…
We verify the Upper Bound Conjecture (UBC) for a class of odd-dimensional simplicial complexes that in particular includes all Eulerian simplicial complexes with isolated singularities. The proof relies on a new invariant of simplicial…
In this paper we highlight some enumerative results concerning matroids of low rank and prove the tail-ends of various sequences involving the number of matroids on a finite set to be log-convex. We give a recursion for a new, slightly…
Let $K$ be a field, $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_m, y_1,\ldots,y_n]$ be a standard bigraded polynomial ring and $M$ a finitely generated bigraded $S$-module. In this paper we study sequentially Cohen--Macaulayness of $M$ with respect to…
We introduce two new characterizations of Meyer sets. A repetitive Delone set in $\R^d$ with finite local complexity is topologically conjugate to a Meyer set if and only if it has $d$ linearly independent topological eigenvalues, which is…
In this paper we discuss the problem of characterizing the Cohen-Macaulay property of certain families of monomial ideals with fixed radical. More precisely, we consider generically complete intersection monomial ideals whose radical…
A torsion-free G_2 structure admitting an infinitesimal isometry is shown to give rise to a 4-manifold equipped with a complex symplectic structure and a 1-parameter family of functions and 2-forms linked by second order equations.…
We extend the Auslander-Buchweitz axioms and prove Cohen-Macaulay approximation results for fibred categories. Then we show that these axioms apply for the fibred category of pairs consisting of a finite type flat family of Cohen-Macaulay…
We give a systematic approach to constructing non-reduced, locally Cohen-Macaulay schemes with reduced support a smooth projective variety. The hierarchy of such structures includes a lot of information about the underlying variety, its…
A finite connected CW complex which is a co-H-space is shown to have the homotopy type of a wedge of a bunch of circles and a simply-connected finite complex after almost $p$-completion at a prime $p$.
We compute the decomposition of representations of Yangians into g-modules for simply-laced Lie algebras g. The decomposition has an interesting combinatorial tree structure. Results depend on a conjecture of Kirillov and Reshetikhin.
The cut sets of a graph are special sets of vertices whose removal disconnects the graph. They are fundamental in the study of binomial edge ideals, since they encode their minimal primary decomposition. We introduce the class of accessible…
A finitely generated module $M$ over a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ is called an $I$-Cohen Macaulay module, if \[ \grade(I,M) + \dim(M/IM)= \dim(M), \] where $I$ is a proper ideal of $R$. The aim of this paper is to study the structure…
Generalizing a well known theorem for finite matroids, we prove that for every (infinite) connected matroid M there is a unique tree T such that the nodes of T correspond to minors of M that are either 3-connected or circuits or cocircuits,…
It is shown that in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, the generic linkage of an ideal $I$ is a deformation of the arbitrary linkage of $I$. This fact does not need $I$ to be a Cohen-Macaulay ideal. The same holds for $s$-residual intersections…
The aim of this article is to study basic structures and interrelations of $\delta$-rings, perfectoid towers, and lim Cohen-Macaulay sequences over Noetherian rings in positive or mixed characteristic. Then we discuss some methods for…
Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring. We characterize when its completion has an isolated singularity, thereby strengthening the Dao-Takahashi refinement of the Auslander-Huneke-Leuschke-Wiegand theorem. We investigate the ascent…
Let X be a separated finite type scheme over a noetherian base ring K. There is a complex C(X) of topological O_X-modules on X, called the complete Hochschild chain complex of X. To any O_X-module M - not necessarily quasi-coherent - we…
