Given any order ideal $U$ consisting of color-squarefree monomials involving variables with $d$ colors, we associate to it a balanced $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex $\Delta_{\mathrm{bal}}(U)$ that we call a balanced squeezed…

Given a shifted order ideal $U$, we associate to it a family of simplicial complexes $(\Delta_t(U))_{t\geq 0}$ that we call squeezed complexes. In a special case, our construction gives squeezed balls that were defined and used by Kalai to…

Recently, Nevo introduced the notion of strongly edge decomposable spheres. In this paper, we characterize the algebraic shifted complex of those spheres. Algebraically, this result yields the characterization of the generic initial ideal…

In 1988, Kalai extended a construction of Billera and Lee to produce many triangulated (d-1)-spheres. In fact, in view of upper bounds on the number of simplicial d-polytopes by Goodman and Pollack, he derived that for every dimension d>=5,…

We study the behavior of generic initial ideals with respect to fibre products. In our main result we determine the generic initial ideal of the fibre product with respect to the reverse lexicographic order. As an application we compute the…

We introduce the $k$-strong Lefschetz property ($k$-SLP) and the $k$-weak Lefschetz property ($k$-WLP) for graded Artinian $K$-algebras, which are generalizations of the Lefschetz properties. The main results obtained in this paper are as…

For a standard Artinian $k$-algebra $A=R/I$, we give equivalent conditions for $A$ to have the weak (or strong) Lefschetz property or the strong Stanley property in terms of the minimal system of generators of the generic initial ideal…

In 1987, Kalai proved that stacked spheres of dimension $d\geq 3$ are characterised by the fact that they attain equality in Barnette's celebrated Lower Bound Theorem. This result does not extend to dimension $d=2$. In this article, we give…

Let $K$ be a field, $S$ a polynomial ring and $E$ an exterior algebra over $K$, both in a finite set of variables. We study rigidity properties of the graded Betti numbers of graded ideals in $S$ and $E$ when passing to their generic…

Given a graded ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring over a field $K$ it is well known, that the number of distinct generic initial ideals of $I$ is finite. While it is known that for a given $d\in\N$ there is a global upper bound for the number…

We introduce the $k$-stellated spheres and compare and contrast them with $k$-stacked spheres. It is shown that for $d \geq 2k$, any $k$-stellated sphere of dimension $d$ bounds a unique and canonically defined $k$-stacked ball. In…

We determine a term order on the monomials in the variables $\varx{i}{j}$, $1 \leq i < j \leq n$, such that corresponding initial ideal of the ideal of Pfaffians of degree $r$ of a generic $n$ by $n$ skew-symmetric matrix is the…

Let $I = ( f_1, \dots, f_n )$ be a homogeneous ideal in the polynomial ring $K[x_1, \dots,x_n]$ over a field $K$ generated by generic polynomials. Using an incremental approach based on a method by Gao, Guan and Volny, and properties of the…

It is known that the initial ideals of generic ideals are the same. Moreno-Soc\'{i}as conjectured that the initial ideal of generic ideals with respect to the degree reverse lexicographic order is weakly reverse lexicographic. In the first…

Lefschetz properties and inverse systems have played key roles in understanding the $h$-vector of simplicial spheres. In 1996, Lee established connections between these two algebraic tools and rigidity theory, an area often used in the…

We introduce the concept of $j$-stretched ideals in a Noetherian local ring. This notion generalizes to arbitrary ideals the classical notion of stretched $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideals of Sally and Rossi-Valla, as well as the concept of…

We show that any polarization of an Artin monomial ideal defines a triangulated ball. This proves a conjecture of A.Almousa, H.Lohne and the first author. Geometrically, polarizations of ideals containing $(x_1^{a_1}, \ldots, x_n^{a_n})$…

In 1971, McMullen and Walkup posed the following conjecture, which is called the generalized lower bound conjecture: If $P$ is a simplicial $d$-polytope then its $h$-vector $(h_0,h_1,...,h_d)$ satisfies $h_0 \leq h_1 \leq ... \leq…

We prove that the $d$-component of the generic initial ideal, with respect to the reverse lexicographic order, of an ideal generated by a regular sequence of homogeneous polynomials of degree $d$ is revlex in a particular, but important,…

We define a set of invariants of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring called the symmetric iterated Betti numbers of $I$. For $I_{\Gamma}$, the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial complex $\Gamma$, these numbers are the symmetric…
