A Betti splitting $I=J+K$ of a monomial ideal $I$ ensures the recovery of the graded Betti numbers of $I$ starting from those of $J,K$ and $J \cap K$. In this paper, we introduce this condition for simplicial complexes, and, by using…
In this note we consider monoidal complexes and their associated algebras, called toric face rings. These rings generalize Stanley-Reisner rings and affine monoid algebras. We compute initial ideals of the presentation ideal of a toric face…
The purpose of this note is to introduce a multiplication on the set of homogeneous polynomials of fixed degree d, in a way to provide a duality theory between monomial ideals of K[x_1,\ldots,x_d] generated in degrees \leq n and block…
Koszul homology of monomial ideals provides a description of the structure of such ideals, not only from a homological point of view (free resolutions, Betti numbers, Hilbert series) but also from an algebraic viewpoint. In this paper we…
Let $S = K[x_1, \dots, x_n]$ be the standard graded polynomial ring over a field $K$. In this paper, we address and completely solve two fundamental open questions in Commutative Algebra: (i) For which degrees $d$, does there exist a…
We show that the lower bounds for Betti numbers given in math.GT/9909161 are equalities for a class of racks that includes dihedral and Alexander racks. We confirm a conjecture from the same paper by defining a splitting for the short exact…
In this paper, we study different polarizations of powers of the maximal ideal m^d, and polarizations of its related square-free version I_d. For n = 3, we show that every minimal free cellular resolution of m^d comes from a certain…
A weaker form of the multiplicity conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan is proven for two classes of monomial ideals: quadratic monomial ideals and squarefree monomial ideals with sufficiently many variables relative to the Krull…
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…
We explore a family of monomial ideals derived as Gr\"obner degenerations of determinantal ideals. These ideals, previously examined as block diagonal matching field ideals within the realm of toric degenerations of Grassmannians, are…
We consider arrangements of tropical hyperplanes where the apices of the hyperplanes are taken to infinity in certain directions. Such an arrangement defines a decomposition of Euclidean space where a cell is determined by its `type' data,…
In this paper we propose a general method for computing a minimal free right resolution of a finitely presented graded right module over a finitely presented graded noncommutative algebra. In particular, if such module is the base field of…
Given any monomial ideal $ I $ minimally generated by $ q $ monomials, we define a simplicial complex $\mathbb{M}_q^2$ that supports a resolution of $ I^2 $. We also define a subcomplex $\mathbb{M}^2(I)$, which depends on the monomial…
We introduce a construction, called linearization, that associates to any monomial ideal $I$ an ideal $\mathrm{Lin}(I)$ in a larger polynomial ring. The main feature of this construction is that the new ideal $\mathrm{Lin}(I)$ has linear…
Given two finite sequences of positive integers $\alpha$ and $\beta$, we associate a square free monomial ideal $I_{\alpha,\beta}$ in a ring of polynomials $S$, and we recursively compute the algebraic invariants of $S/I_{\alpha,\beta}$.…
We provide some new conditions under which the graded Betti numbers of a monomial ideal can be computed in terms of the graded Betti numbers of smaller ideals, thus complementing Eliahou and Kervaire's splitting approach. As applications,…
We introduce a squarefree monomial ideal associated to the set of domino tilings of a $2\times n$ rectangle and proceed to study the associated minimal free resolution. In this paper, we use results of Dalili and Kummini to show that the…
Let $I \subset k[x_1, \dotsc, x_n]$ be a squarefree monomial ideal a polynomial ring. In this paper we study multiplications on the minimal free resolution $\mathbb{F}$ of $k[x_1, \dotsc, x_n]/I$. In particular, we characterize the possible…
Call a monomial ideal M "generic" if no variable appears with the same nonzero exponent in two distinct monomial generators. Using a convex polytope first studied by Scarf, we obtain a minimal free resolution of M. Any monomial ideal M can…
A duality transform for the coalgebra of the free difference quotient derivation-multiplication of an operator with respect to a free algebra of scalars is constructed. The dual object is realized in an algebra of matricial analytic…
