Regularity of binomial edge ideals of Cohen-Macaulay bipartite graphs

Let $G$ be a finite simple graph on $n$ vertices and $J_G$ denote the corresponding binomial edge ideal in $S = K[x_1, \ldots, x_n, y_1, \ldots, y_n].$ In this article, we prove that if $G$ is a fan graph of a complete graph, then $reg(S/J_G) \leq c(G)$, where $c(G)$ denote the number of maximal cliques in $G$. Further, we show that if $G$ is a $k$-pure fan graph, then $reg(S/J_G) = k+1$. We then compute a precise expression for the regularity of Cohen-Macaulay bipartite graphs.

Regularity of Binomial Edge Ideals of Certain Block Graphs

We obtain an improved lower bound for the regularity of the binomial edge ideals of trees. We prove an upper bound for the regularity of the binomial edge ideals of certain subclass of block-graphs. As a consequence we obtain sharp upper and lower bounds for the regularity of binomial edge ideals of a class of trees called lobsters. We also obtain precise expressions for the regularities of binomial edge ideals of certain classes of trees and block graphs.

On the Vasconcelos inequality for the fiber multiplicity of modules

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Noetherian local ring of dimension $d>0$ with infinite residue field. Let $M$ be a finitely generated proper $R$-submodule of a free $R$-module $F$ with $\ell (F/M) < \infty$ and having rank $r$. In this article, we study the fiber multiplicity $f_0(M)$ of the module $M$. We prove that if $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ is a two dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring, then $f_0(M)\le br_1(M)-br_0(M)+\ell (F/M)+μ(M)-r$, where $br_i(M)$ denotes the $i^{th}$ Buchsbaum-Rim coefficient of $M$.

A Northcott type inequality for Buchsbaum-Rim coefficients

In 1960, D.G. Northcott proved that if $e_0(I)$ and $e_1(I)$ denote zeroth and first Hilbert-Samuel coefficients of an $\mathfrak m$-primary ideal $I$ in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(R,\mathfrak m)$, then $e_0(I)-e_1(I)\le \ell (R/I)$. In this article, we study an analogue of this inequality for Buchsbaum-Rim coefficients. We prove that if $(R,\mathfrak m)$ is a two dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring and $M$ is a finitely generated $R$-module contained in a free module $F$ with finite co-length, then $br_0(M)-br_1(M)\le \ell (F/M)$, where $br_0(M)$ and $br_1(M$) denote zeroth and first Buchsbaum-Rim coefficients respectively.

On the number of generators of ideals defining Gorenstein Artin algebras with Hilbert function $ (1,n+1, 1+{n+1\choose 2},...,{n+1\choose 2}+1, n+1,1)$

Let $R = k[w, x_1,..., x_n]/I$ be a graded Gorenstein Artin algebra . Then $I = \ann F$ for some $F$ in the divided power algebra $k_{DP}[W, X_1,..., X_n]$. If $RI_2$ is a height one idealgenerated by $n$ quadrics, then $I_2 \subset (w)$ after a possible change of variables. Let $J = I \cap k[x_1,..., x_n]$. Then $μ(I) \le μ(J)+n+1$ and $I$ is said to be generic if $μ(I) = μ(J) + n+1$. In this article we prove necessary conditions, in terms of $F$, for an ideal to be generic. With some extra assumptions on the exponents of terms of $F$, we obtain a characterization for $I = \ann F$ to be generic in codimension four.

Periodic Occurance of Complete Intersection Monomial Curves

We study the complete intersection property of monomial curves in the family $Γ_{å+ \jj} = {(t^{a_0 + j}, t^{a_1+j},..., t^{a_n + j}) ~ | ~ j \geq 0, ~ a_0 < a_1 <...< a_n}$. We prove that if $Γ_{å+\jj}$ is a complete intersection for $j \gg0$, then $Γ_{å+\jj+\underline{a_n}}$ is a complete intersection for $j \gg 0$. This proves a conjecture of Herzog and Srinivasan on eventual periodicity of Betti numbers of semigroup rings under translations for complete intersections. We also show that if $Γ_{å+\jj}$ is a complete intersection for $j \gg 0$, then $Γ_å$ is a complete intersection. We also characterize the complete intersection property of this family when $n = 3$.

Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and Gorensteinness of fiber cone

In this article, we study the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity and Gorenstein properties of the fiber cone. We obtain upper bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the fiber cone and obtain sufficient conditions for the regularity of the fiber cone to be equal to that of the Rees algebra. We obtain a formula for the canonical module of the fiber cone and use it to study the Gorenstein property of the fiber cone.

On the lengths of quotients of ideals and depths of fiber cones

Let $(R,\mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring, $I$ an $\mathfrak{m}$-primary ideal of $R$ and $J$ its minimal reduction. We study the depths of $F(I)$ under certain depth assumptions on $G(I)$ and length condition on quotients of powers of $I$ and $J$, namely $\sum_{n\geq0}λ(\mathfrak{m}I^{n+1}/\mathfrak{m}JI^n)$ and $\sum_{n\geq0}λ(\mathfrak{m}I^{n+1} \cap J/\mathfrak{m}JI^n)$.

On fiber cones of ${\mathfrak m}$-primary ideals

Two formulas for the multiplicity of the fiber cone $F(I)=\oplus_{n=0}^{\infty} I^n/\m I^n$ of an $\m$-primary ideal of a $d$-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local ring $(R,\m)$ are derived in terms of the mixed multiplicity $e_{d-1}(\m | I),$ the multiplicity $e(I)$ and superficial elements. As a consequence, the Cohen-Macaulay property of $F(I)$ when $I$ has minimal mixed multiplicity or almost minimal mixed multiplicity is characterized in terms of reduction number of $I$ and lengths of certain ideals. We also characterize Cohen-Macaulay and Gorenstein property of fiber cones of $\m$-primary ideals with a $d$-generated minimal reduction $J$ satisfying (i) $\ell(I^2/JI)=1$ or (ii) $\ell(I\m/J\m)=1.$

Graded rings associated with contracted ideals

By definition, an $\m$-primary ideal $I$ in a 2-dimensional regular local ring $(R, \m)$ is contracted if $I=R \cap IR[\m/x]$ for some $x \in \m \setminus \m^2$. Contracted ideals have been introduced by Zariski and used for proving the unique factorization theorem for complete (i.e. integrally closed) ideals. Any complete ideal is contracted but not the other way round. While the associated graded rings to complete ideals are always Cohen-Macaulay, this is not the case for contracted ideals. Our goal is to study depth, Hilbert function and defining equations of the graded rings of homogeneous contracted ideals. We show, by using quadratic transform, that the depth of the associated graded ring to a contracted ideal $I$ is determined by depth of the associated graded rings to a certain family of monomial ideals (indeed lex-segments) which are naturally attached to $I$. For certain classes of contracted ideals we show that the associated graded ring is Cohen-Macaulay or at least has positive depth.

Hilbert coefficients and depth of fiber cones

Criteria are given in terms of certain Hilbert coefficients for the fiber cone F(I) of an m-primary ideal I in a Cohen-Macaulay local ring (R,m) so that it is Cohen-Macaulay or has depth at least dim(R)-1. A version of Huneke's fundamental lemma is proved for fiber cones. S. Goto's results concerning Cohen-Macaulay fiber cones of ideals with minimal multiplicity are obtained as consequences.

Hilbert coefficients and depths of form rings

We present short and elementary proofs of two theorems of Huckaba and Marley, while generalizing them at the same time to the case of a module. The theorems concern a characterization of the depth of the associated graded ring of a Cohen-Macaulay module, with respect to a Hilbert filtration, in terms of the Hilbert coefficient e_1. As an application, we derive bounds on the higher Hilbert coefficient e_i in terms of e_0.

Fiber cones of ideals with almost minimal multiplicity

Fiber cones of 0-dimensional ideals with almost minimal multiplicity in Cohen-Macaulay local rings are studied. Ratliff-Rush closure of filtration of ideals with respect to another ideal is introduced. This is used to find a bound on the reduction number with respect to an ideal. Rossi's bound on reduction number in terms of Hilbert coefficients is obtained as a consequence. Sufficient conditions are provided for the fiber cone of 0-dimensional ideals to have almost maximal depth. Hilbert series of such fiber cones are also computed.

Local cohomology modules of bigraded Rees algebras

Formulas are obtained in terms of complete reductions for the bigraded components of local cohomology modules of bigraded Rees algebras of 0-dimensional ideals in 2-dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local rings. As a consequence, cohomological expressions for the coefficients of the Bhattacharya polynomial of such ideals are obtained.

Grothendieck-Serre formula and bigraded Cohen-Macaulay Rees algebras

The Grothendieck-Serre formula for the difference between the Hilbert function and Hilbert polynomial of a graded algebra is generalized for bigraded standard algebras. This is used to get a similar formula for the difference between the Bhattacharya function and Bhattacharya polynomial of two m-primary ideals I and J in a local ring (A,m) in terms of local cohomology modules of Rees algebras of I and J. The cohomology of a variation of the Kirby-Mehran complex for bigraded Rees algebras is studied which is used to characterize the Cohen-Macaulay property of bigraded Rees algebra of I and J for two dimensional Cohen-Macaulay local rings.
