The Leray number of an abstract simplicial complex is the minimal integer $d$ where its induced subcomplexes have trivial homology groups in dimension $d$ or greater. We give an upper bound on the Leray number of a complex in terms of how…

Let $K$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$. $K$ is called $d$-Leray if the homology groups of any induced subcomplex of $K$ are trivial in dimensions $d$ and higher. $K$ is called $d$-collapsible if it can be reduced to the void…

Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a fixed field and let $X$ be a simplicial complex on the vertex set $V$. The Leray number $L(X;\mathbb{F})$ is the minimal $d$ such that for all $i \geq d$ and $S \subset V$, the induced complex $X[S]$ satisfies…

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal in a polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ over a field $K$ with $n=2$ or $3$, and let $\overline{I}$ be its integral closure. We will show that $\text{reg} (\overline{I}) \le \text{reg} (I)$. Furthermore, if $I$…

Let $S = \mathsf{k}[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$, $I$ be an ideal of $S$, and $\bar{I}$ denote its integral closure. A conjecture of K\"{u}ronya and Pintye states that for any homogeneous ideal $I$ of $S$, the inequality $\operatorname{reg}(\bar{I})…

Let $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_n]$ denote the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ with each $\deg x_i = 1$ and $I \subset S$ a homogeneous ideal of $S$ with $\dim S/I = d$. The Hilbert series of $S/I$ is of the form…

To a simplicial complex, we associate a square-free monomial ideal in the polynomial ring generated by its vertex set over a field. We study algebraic properties of this ideal via combinatorial properties of the simplicial complex. By…

As a generalization of graph Laplacians to higher dimensions, the combinatorial Laplacians of simplicial complexes have garnered increasing attention. Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$ of size $n$, and let $X(k)$ denote the…

We study the regularity of symbolic powers of square-free monomial ideals. We prove that if $I = I_\Delta$ is the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial complex $\Delta$, then $\reg(I^{(n)}) \leqslant \delta(n-1) +b$ for all $n\geqslant 1$,…

We show that for a vertex decomposable simplicial complex $\Delta$, the Rees algebra of $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a normal Cohen-Macaulay domain. As consequences, we show that any squarefree weakly polymatroidal ideal is normal and we obtain…

A famous theorem of Kalai and Meshulam is that $\mathrm{reg}(I + J) \leq \mathrm{reg}(I) + \mathrm{reg}(J) -1$ for any squarefree monomial ideals $I$ and $J$. This result was subsequently extended by Herzog to the case where $I$ and $J$ are…

Let $I$ be any square-free monomial ideal, and $\mathcal{H}_I$ denote the hypergraph associated with $I$. Refining the concept of $k$-admissible matching of a graph defined by Erey and Hibi, we introduce the notion of generalized…

The goal of the present paper is the study of some algebraic invariants of Stanley-Reisner rings of Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes of dimension $d - 1$. We prove that the inequality $d \leq \mathrm{reg}(\Delta) \cdot…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group of order $n$ and let $\Delta_{n-1}$ denote the $(n-1)$-simplex on the vertex set $G$. The sum complex $X_{A,k}$ associated to a subset $A \subset G$ and $k < n$, is the $k$-dimensional simplicial complex…

Given a simplicial complex, it is easy to construct a generic deformation of its Stanley-Reisner ideal. The main question under investigation in this paper is how to characterize the simplicial complexes such that their Stanley-Reisner…

In a 2008 paper, the first author and Van Tuyl proved that the regularity of the edge ideal of a graph G is at most one greater than the matching number of G. In this note, we provide a generalization of this result to any square-free…

We define the uniform face ideal of a simplicial complex with respect to an ordered proper vertex colouring of the complex. This ideal is a monomial ideal which is generally not squarefree. We show that such a monomial ideal has a linear…

In this paper, we introduce the concept of $k$-clean monomial ideals as an extension of clean monomial ideals and present some homological and combinatorial properties of them. Using the hierarchal structure of $k$-clean ideals, we show…

For each squarefree monomial ideal $I\subset S = k[x_{1},\ldots, x_{n}] $, we associate a simple graph $G_I$ by using the first linear syzygies of $I$. In cases, where $G_I$ is a cycle or a tree, we show the following are equivalent: (a) $…
