In this paper, we extend earlier work by showing that if $X$ and $Y$ are simplicial complexes (i.e. simplicial sets whose simplices are determined by their vertices), a morphism $g:N(X)\to N(Y)$ of Steenrod coalgebras (normalized…
Let $S$ be a polynomial ring over a field and $I\subseteq S$ a homogeneous ideal containing a regular sequence of forms of degrees $d_1, \ldots, d_c$. In this paper we prove the Lex-plus-powers Conjecture when the field has characteristic 0…
We prove that if R is a principal ideal ring and A\in\M_n(R) is a matrix with trace zero, then A is a commutator, that is, A=XY-YX for some X,Y\in\M_n(R). This generalises the corresponding result over fields due to Albert and Muckenhoupt,…
Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on $n$ vertices without missing faces of dimension larger than $d$. Let $L_{j}$ denote the $j$-Laplacian acting on real $j$-cochains of $X$ and let $\mu_{j}(X)$ denote its minimal eigenvalue. We study the…
Let $R=k[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be a polynomial ring over a prefect field of positive characteristic. Let $I$ be an unmixed ideal in $R$ and let $J$ be a generic link of $I$ in $S=R[u_{ij}]_{c \times r}$. We describe the parameter test submodule…
The task of this survey is to present various results on intersection patterns of convex sets. One of main tools for studying intersection patterns is a point of view via simplicial complexes. We recall the definitions of so called…
Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$. We show that if $G$ is a connected graph with a basic $5$-cycle $C$, then $G$ is a sequentially Cohen-Macaulay graph if and only if there exists a shedding…
Fix an integer $n \geq 1$, and consider the set of all connected finite simple graphs on $n$ vertices. For each $G$ in this set, let $I(G)$ denote the edge ideal of $G$ in the polynomial ring $R = K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$. We initiate a study of…
Let $S={\Bbb K}[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ denote a polynomial ring over a field $\Bbb K$. Given a monomial ideal $I$ and a finitely generated multigraded $M$ over $S$, we follow Herzog's method to construct a multigraded free $S$-resolution of $M/IM$…
We prove that if X is any 2-regular projective scheme (in the sense of Castelnuovo-Mumford) then X is "small". This means that if L is a linear space and Y:= L\cap X is finite, then Y is "linearly independent" in the sense that the…
The Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity $\reg(I)$ is one of the most important invariants of a homogeneous ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring. A basic question is how the regularity behaves with respect to taking powers of ideals. It is known that…
Let $X$ be a simplicial complex with $n$ vertices. A missing face of $X$ is a simplex $\sigma\notin X$ such that $\tau\in X$ for any $\tau\subsetneq \sigma$. For a $k$-dimensional simplex $\sigma$ in $X$, its degree in $X$ is the number of…
In this paper, the relation between algebraic shifting and join which was conjectured by Eran Nevo will be proved. Let $\sigma$ and $\tau$ be simplicial complexes and $\sigma * \tau$ their join. Let $J_\sigma$ be the exterior face ideal of…
In this article, we show that for a partial skew group ring R*G, where R is a commutative ring, each non-zero ideal of R*G intersects R non-trivially if and only if R is a maximal commutative subring of R*G. As a consequence, we obtain…
Let $S=K[x_1,\dots,x_n]$ be the polynomial ring over a field $K$ and $I\subset S$ be a squarefree monomial ideal generated in degree $n-2$. Motivated by the remarkable behavior of the powers of $I$ when $I$ admits a linear resolution, as…
Let $X$ be a simplicial complex. For $1\le i\le\dim(X)$, let $X(i)$ be the set of $i$-dimensional faces of $X$, and let $f_i(X)=|X(i)|$. For $0\le i\le \dim(X)-1$, let $L_i^+(X)$ be the $i$-th upper Laplacian operator of $X$. For $\sigma\in…
For a finite abstract simplicial complex G with n sets, define the n x n matrix K(x,y) which is the number of subsimplices in the intersection of x and y. We call it the counting matrix of G. Similarly as the connection matrix L which is…
We extend a result of Minh and Trung to get criteria for $\depth I=\depth\sqrt{I}$ where $I$ is an unmixed monomial ideal of the polynomial ring $S=K[x_1,..., x_n]$. As an application we characterize all the pure simplicial complexes…
Let I be a complete intersection in a polynomial ring over a field, the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of I^n is given by using an induction method. When I, J and K are three pure power complete intersections, it is proved that reg(IJK) is…
The aim of this article is to describe necessary and sufficient conditions for simplicity of Ore extension rings, with an emphasis on differential polynomial rings. We show that a differential polynomial ring, R[x;id,\delta], is simple if…
