In a recent paper, F. Zanello showed that level Artinian algebras in 3 variables can fail to have the Weak Lefschetz Property (WLP), and can even fail to have unimodal Hilbert function. We show that the same is true for the Artinian…

$(1,3,6,10,15,21,28,27,27,28)$ 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…

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…

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 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…

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 -…

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 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…

In this paper we study standard graded artinian level algebras, in particular those whose socle-vector has type 2. Our main results are: the characterization of the level $h$-vectors of the form $(1,r,...,r,2)$ for $r\leq 4$; 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…

We study the weak Lefschetz property of a class of graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras of codimension three associated in a natural way to the Ap\'ery set of a numerical semigroup generated by four natural numbers. We show that these…

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 $[Wi]$)…

It has been conjectured that {\it all} graded Artinian Gorenstein algebras of codimension three have the weak Lefschetz property over a field of characteristic zero. In this paper, we study the weak Lefschetz property of associated graded…

It is unknown if an Artinian level O-sequence of codimension 3 and type $r (\ge 2)$ is unimodal, while it is known that any Gorenstein O-sequence of codimension 3 is unimodal. We show that some Artinian non-unimodal O-sequence of…

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…

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 $\pmb k$ be an arbitrary field and $A$ be a standard graded Artinian Gorenstein $\pmb k$-algebra of embedding dimension four and socle degree three. Then, except for exactly one exception, $A$ has the weak Lefschetz property.…

Let $A$ be a standard graded $\mathbb{K}$-algebra of finite type over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. We use apolarity to construct, for each degree $k$, a projective variety whose osculating defect in degree $s$ is…

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 construct new families of Artinian Gorenstein graded $K$-algebras of arbitrary codimension having binomial Macaulay dual generators and satisfying the weak or the strong Lefschetz property. This is a companion paper to \cite{ADFMMSV},…
