First Nonlinear Syzygies of Ideals Associated to Graphs

Consider an ideal I ? K[x ₁,…, x _n ], with K an arbitrary field, generated by monomials of degree two. Assuming that I does not have a linear resolution, we determine the step s of the minimal graded free resolution of I where nonlinear syzygies first appear, we show that at this step of the resolution nonlinear syzygies are concentrated in degree s + 3, and we compute the corresponding graded Betti number β _{s, s+3}. The multidegrees of these nonlinear syzygies are also determined and the corresponding multigraded Betti numbers are shown to be all equal to 1.     

Powers of Elements and Monomial Ideals #

All monomial ideals I ? k[X ₀,…, X _d ] are classified which satisfy the following condition: If f ∈ I with f ⁿ  ∈ I ⁿ⁺¹ for some n, then f ∈ (X ₀,…, X _d ) I.     

On Skew Triangular Matrix Rings

For a ring R, endomorphism α of R and positive integer n we define a skew triangular matrix ring T _n (R, α). By using an ideal theory of a skew triangular matrix ring T _n (R, α) we can determine prime, primitive, maximal ideals and radicals of the ring R[x; α]/ ? x ⁿ  ?, for each positive integer n, where R[x; α] is the skew polynomial ring, and ? x ⁿ  ? is the ideal generated by x ⁿ .     

On the Regularity of Operations of Ideals

Let I be a homogeneous ideal of a polynomial ring K[x₁,…, x_n] over a field K, and denote the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of I by reg(I). When I is a monomial complete intersection, it is proved that reg(I^m) ≤ mreg(I) holds for any m ≥ 1. When n = 3, for any homogeneous ideals I and J of K[x₁, x₂, x₃], one has that reg(I ? J), reg(IJ) and reg(I ∩ J) are all upper bounded by reg(I) +reg(J), while reg(I + J) ≤reg(I) +reg(J) ?1.     

Asymptotic Growth of Associated Primes of Certain Graph Ideals

We specify a class of graphs, H _t , and characterize the irreducible decompositions of all powers of the cover ideals. This gives insight into the structure and stabilization of the corresponding associated primes; specifically, providing an answer to the question “For each integer t ≥ 0, does there exist a (hyper) graph H _t such that stabilization of associated primes occurs at n ≥ (χ(H _t ) ?1) + t?” [4 Francisco , C. A. , Hà , H. T. , Van Tuyl , A. ( 2011 ). Colorings of hypergraphs, perfect graphs, and associated primes of powers of monomial ideals . J. Algebra 331 : 224 – 242 .[Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar]]. For each t, H _t has chromatic number 3 and associated primes that stabilize at n = 2 + t.     

Resolutions of 2 and 3 Dimensional Rings of Invariants for Cyclic Groups

Let G be the cyclic group of order n, and suppose F is a field containing a primitive nth root of unity. We consider the ring of invariants F[W] ^G of a three dimensional representation W of G where G ? SL(W). We describe minimal generators and relations for this ring and prove that the lead terms of the relations are quadratic. These minimal generators for the relations form a Gröbner basis with a surprisingly simple combinatorial structure. We describe the graded Betti numbers for a minimal free resolution of F[W] ^G . The case where W is any two dimensional representation of G is also handled.     

The Integral Closure of Ideals in ℂ{x,y}

Abstract

We give some techniques to determine the ideal K _I generated by the monomials x ^{k ₁} y ^{k ₂} belonging to the integral closure ī of an ideal I ? ?{x, y}. We also give a sufficient condition for a weighted homogeneous ideal I ? ?{x, y} to satisfy the relation ī = I + K _I .     

Betti Numbers of Path Ideals of Trees

Let R = k[x₁,…, x_n], where k is a field. The path ideal (of length t) of a directed graph G is the monomial ideal, denoted by I_t(G), whose generators correspond to the directed paths of length t in G. We determine all the graded Betti numbers of the path ideal of a directed rooted tree with respect to some graphical terms.     

Rings Over which the Krull Dimension and the Noetherian Dimension of All Modules Coincide

We denote by 𝒜(R) the class of all Artinian R-modules and by 𝒩(R) the class of all Noetherian R-modules. It is shown that 𝒜(R) ? 𝒩(R) (𝒩(R) ? 𝒜(R)) if and only if 𝒜(R/P) ? 𝒩(R/P) (𝒩(R/P) ? 𝒜(R/P)), for all centrally prime ideals P (i.e., ab ∈ P, a or b in the center of R, then a ∈ P or b ∈ P). Equivalently, if and only if 𝒜(R/P) ? 𝒩(R/P) (𝒩(R/P) ? 𝒜(R/P)) for all normal prime ideals P of R (i.e., ab ∈ P, a, b normalize R, then a ∈ P or b ∈ P). We observe that finitely embedded modules and Artinian modules coincide over Noetherian duo rings. Consequently, 𝒜(R) ? 𝒩(R) implies that 𝒩(R) = 𝒜(R), where R is a duo ring. For a ring R, we prove that 𝒩(R) = 𝒜(R) if and only if the coincidence in the title occurs. Finally, if Q is the quotient field of a discrete valuation domain R, it is shown that Q is the only R-module which is both α-atomic and β-critical for some ordinals α,β ≥ 1 and in fact α = β = 1.     

On the Zero-Divisor Graph of a Ring

Let R be a commutative ring with identity, Z(R) its set of zero-divisors, and Nil(R) its ideal of nilpotent elements. The zero-divisor graph of R is Γ(R) = Z(R)\{0}, with distinct vertices x and y adjacent if and only if xy = 0. In this article, we study Γ(R) for rings R with nonzero zero-divisors which satisfy certain divisibility conditions between elements of R or comparability conditions between ideals or prime ideals of R. These rings include chained rings, rings R whose prime ideals contained in Z(R) are linearly ordered, and rings R such that {0} ≠ Nil(R) ? zR for all z ∈ Z(R)\Nil(R).     

RANK t ℋ-PRIMES IN QUANTUM MATRICES

ABSTRACT

Let 𝕂 be a (commutative) field and consider a nonzero element q in 𝕂 that is not a root of unity. Goodearl and Lenagan (2002 Goodearl , K. R. , Lenagan , T. H. ( 2002 ). Prime ideals invariant under winding automorphisms in quantum matrices . Internat. J. Math 13 : 497 – 532 . [CROSSREF]  [Google Scholar]) have shown that the number of ?-primes in R = O _q (? _n (𝕂)) that contain all (t + 1) × (t + 1) quantum minors but not all t × t quantum minors is a perfect square. The aim of this paper is to make precise their result: we prove that this number is equal to (t!) ² S(n + 1, t + 1)2, where S(n + 1, t + 1) denotes the Stirling number of the second kind associated to n + 1 and t + 1. This result was conjectured by Goodearl, Lenagan, and McCammond. The proof involves some closed formulas for the poly-Bernoulli numbers that were established by Kaneko (1997 Kaneko , M. ( 1997 ). Poly-Bernoulli numbers . J. Théorie Nombres Bordeaux 9 : 221 – 228 . [Google Scholar]) and Arakawa and Kaneko (1999 Arakawa , T. , Kaneko , M. ( 1999 ). On poly-Bernoulli numbers . Comment Math.

Specializations of Multigradings and the Arithmetical Rank of Lattice Ideals

In this article, we study specializations of multigradings and apply them to the problem of the computation of the arithmetical rank of a lattice ideal I _{L 𝒢}  ? K[x ₁,…, x _n ]. The arithmetical rank of I _{L 𝒢} equals the ?-homogeneous arithmetical rank of I _{L 𝒢} , for an appropriate specialization ? of 𝒢. To the lattice ideal I _{L 𝒢} and every specialization ? of 𝒢, we associate a simplicial complex. We prove that combinatorial invariants of the simplicial complex provide lower bounds for the ?-homogeneous arithmetical rank of I _{L 𝒢} .     

Examples of Generic Lattice Ideals of Codimension 3

A commutative ring R is said to be strongly Hopfian if the chain of annihilators ann(a) ? ann(a ²) ? … stabilizes for each a ∈ R. In this article, we are interested in the class of strongly Hopfian rings and the transfer of this property from a commutative ring R to the ring of the power series R[[X]]. We provide an example of a strongly Hopfian ring R such that R[[X]] is not strongly Hopfian. We give some necessary and sufficient conditions for R[[X]] to be strongly Hopfian.     

Generalized APP-Rings

We say a ring R is (centrally) generalized left annihilator of principal ideal is pure (APP) if the left annihilator ? _R (Ra) ⁿ is (centrally) right s-unital for every element a ∈ R and some positive integer n. The class of generalized left APP-rings includes generalized left (principally) quasi-Baer rings and left APP-rings (and hence left p.q.-Baer rings, right p.q.-Baer rings, and right PP-rings). The class of centrally generalized left APP-rings is closed under finite direct products, full matrix rings, and Morita invariance. The behavior of the (centrally) generalized left APP condition is investigated with respect to various constructions and extensions, and it is used to generalize many results on generalized PP-rings with IFP and semiprime left APP-rings. Moreover, we extend a theorem of Kist for commutative PP rings to centrally generalized left APP rings for which every prime ideal contains a unique minimal prime ideal without using topological arguments. Furthermore, we give a complete characterization of a considerably large family of centrally generalized left APP rings which have a sheaf representation.
