Constructible Ideals

Based on the study of simplicial complexes, one may naturally define the constructible monomial ideals. We connect the square-free constructible ideal with the Stanley–Reisner ideal of the Alexander dual associated to a constructible simplicial complex. We give some properties of constructible ideals, and we compute the Betti numbers. We prove that all monomial ideals with linear quotients are constructible ideals. We also show that all constructible ideals have a linear resolution.
