New bounds on Castelnuovo--Mumford regularity of monomial curves and application to sumsets

A monomial curve $C$ is defined by a sequence of coprime integers $0 = a_0 < a_1 < \cdots < a_k =: d$. One gap of this sequence is $a_{i+1} - a_i - 1$. Gruson--Lazarsfeld--Peskine bound (1983) says that $reg (C) \le d - k +2$, which is equal to the sum of all gaps plus 2. Lvovsky (1996) showed that it is enough to take the sum of two largest gaps plus 2. In this paper, under some specific conditions, we give several new bounds which are better than Lvovsky's bound. Our method relies on the study of Apery sets and Frobenius numbers. From this we can give new criteria to check the (arithmetically) Cohen--Macaulay and Buchsbaum property of $C$. Algorithms are provided to check these properties as well as to compute $ reg(C)$ and other invariants. We also give an application to study the structure of sumsets.

Regularity functions of powers of graded ideals

This paper studies the problem of which sequences of non-negative integers arise as the functions $\operatorname{reg} I^{n-1}/I^n$, $\operatorname{reg} R/I^n$, $\operatorname{reg} I^n$ for an ideal $I$ generated by forms of degree $d$ in a standard graded algebra $R$. These functions are asymptotically linear with slope $d$. If $\dim R/I = 0$, we give a complete characterization of all numerical functions which arise as the functions $\operatorname{reg} I^{n-1}/I^n$, $\operatorname{reg} R/I^n$ and show that $\operatorname{reg} I^n$ can be any numerical function $f(n) \ge dn$ that weakly decreases until it becomes a linear function with slope $d$. The latter result gives a negative answer to a question of Eisenbud and Ulrich. If $\dim R/I \ge 1$, we show that $\operatorname{reg} I^{n-1}/I^n$ can be any numerical asymptotically linear function $f(n) \ge dn-1$ with slope $d$ and $\operatorname{reg} R/I^n$ can be any numerical asymptotically linear function $f(n) \ge dn-1$ with slope $d$ that is weakly increasing. Inspired of a recent work of Ein, Ha and Lazarsfeld on non-singular complex projective schemes, we also prove that the function of the saturation degree of $I^n$ is asymptotically linear for an arbitrary graded ideal $I$ and study the behavior of this function.

Upper bounds on two Hilbert coefficients

New upper bounds on the first and the second Hilbert coefficients of a Cohen-Macaulay module over a local ring are given. Characterizations are provided for some upper bounds to be attained. The characterizations are given in terms of Hilbert series as well as in terms of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the associated graded module.

Maximal generating degrees of powers of homogeneous ideals

The degree excess function $ε(I;n)$ is the difference between the maximal generating degree $d(I^n)$ of a homogeneous ideal $I$ of a polynomial ring and $p(I)n$, where $p(I)$ is the leading coefficient of the asymptotically linear function $d(I^n)$. It is shown that any non-increasing numerical function can be realized as a degree excess function, and there is a monomial ideal $I$ whose $ε(I;n)$ has exactly a given number of local maxima. In the case of monomial ideals, an upper bound on $ε(I;n)$ is provided. As an application it is shown that in the worst case, the so-called stability index of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of a monomial ideal $I$ must be at least an exponential function of the number of variables.

The 80-year development of Vietnam mathematical research: Preliminary insights from the SciMath database on mathematicians, their works and their networks

Starting with the first international publication of Le Van Thiem in 1947, modern mathematics in Vietnam is a longstanding research field. However, what is known about its development usually comes from discrete essays such as anecdotes or interviews of renowned mathematicians. We introduce SciMath-a database on publications of Vietnamese mathematicians. To ensure this database covers as many publications as possible, data entries are manually collected from scientists' publication records, journals' websites, universities, and research institutions. Collected data went through various verification steps to ensure data quality and minimize errors. At the time of this report, the database covered 8372 publications, profiles of 1566 Vietnamese, and 1492 foreign authors since 1947. We found a growing capability in mathematics research in Vietnam in various aspects: scientific output, publications on influential journals, or collaboration. The database and preliminary results were presented to the Scientific Council of Vietnam Institute for Advanced Study in Mathematics (VIASM) on November 13th, 2020.

Asymptotic behavior of Integer Programming and the stability of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity

The paper provides a connection between Commutative Algebra and Integer Programming and contains two parts. The first one is devoted to the asymptotic behavior of integer programs with a fixed cost linear functional and the constraint sets consisting of a finite system of linear equations or inequalities with integer coefficients depending linearly on $n$. An integer $N_*$ is determined such that the optima of these integer programs are a quasi-linear function of $n$ for all $n\ge N_*$. Using results in the first part, one can bound in the second part the indices of stability of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularities of integral closures of powers of a monomial ideal and that of symbolic powers of a square-free monomial ideal.

Powers of Monomial Ideals and Combinatorics

This is an exposition of some new results on associated primes and the depth of different kinds of powers of monomial ideals in order to show a deep connection between commutative algebra and some objects in combinatorics such as simplicial complexes, integral points in polytopes and graphs.

Dependence of Hilbert coefficients

Let $M$ be a finitely generated module of dimension $d$ and depth $t$ over a Noetherian local ring ($A, {\mathfrak m}$) and $I$ an ${\mathfrak m}$-primary ideal. In the main result it is shown that the last $t$ Hilbert coefficients $e_{d-t+1}(I,M),..., e_d(I,M)$ are bounded below and above in terms of the first $d-t+1$ Hilbert coefficients $e_0(I,M),...,e_{d-t}(I,M)$ and $d$.

Stability of Depth and Cohen-Macaulayness of Integral Closures of Powers of Monomial Ideals

Let $I$ be a monomial ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring $R = k[x_1,...,x_r]$. In this paper we give an upper bound on $\overline{\dstab} (I)$ in terms of $r$ and the maximal generating degree $d(I)$ of $I$ such that $\depth R/\overline{I^n}$ is constant for all $n\geqslant \overline{\dstab}(I)$. As an application, we classify the class of monomial ideals $I$ such that $\overline{I^n}$ is Cohen-Macaulay for some integer $n\gg 0$.

On local cohomology of a tetrahedral curve

It is shown that the diameter $\diam (H^1_\mfr(R/I))$ of the first local cohomology module of a tetrahedral curve $C= C(a_1,...,a_6)$ can be explicitly expressed in terms of the $a_i$ and is the smallest non-negative integer $k$ such that $\mfr^k H^1_\mfr(R/I)=0$. From that one can describe all arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay or Buchsbaum tetrahedral curves.

Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of Ext modules and homological degree

Bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of Ext modules, over a polynomial ring over a field, are given in terms of the initial degrees, Castelnuovo-Mumford regularities and number of generators of the two graded modules involved. These general bounds are refined in the case the second module is the ring. Other estimates, for instance on the size of graded pieces of these modules, are given. We also derive a bound on the homological degree in terms of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. This answers positively a question raised by Vasconcelos.

Borel-fixed ideals and reduction number

The aim of this paper is to study the relationship between reduction numbers and Borel-fixed ideals in all characteristics. By definition, Borel-fixed ideals are closed under certain specializations which is similar to the strong stability. We will estimate the number of monomials which can be specialized to a given monomial. As a consequence, we obtain a combinatorial version of the well-known Eakin-Sathaye's theorem which bounds the reduction number in terms of the Hilbert function. Furthermore, we show that the bound of Eakin-Sathaye's theorem is attained by the reduction number of a lex-segment monomial ideal. This result answers a question of Conca in the affirmative. We will also show that the reduction number of the lex-segment ideal is bounded exponentially by the reduction number of the given ideal.
