The Buchsbaum property of symbolic powers of Stanley-Reisner ideals of dimension 1

Let S be a polynomial ring and I be the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial complex Δ. The purpose of this paper is investigating the Buchsbaum property of S/I^(r) when Δ is pure dimension 1. We shall characterize the Buchsbaumness of S/I^(r) in terms of the graphical property of Δ. That is closely related to the characterization of the Cohen-Macaulayness of S/I^(r) due to the first author and N.V. Trung.     

Stanley-Reisner ideals whose powers have finite length cohomologies

We introduce a class of Stanley-Reisner ideals called a generalized complete intersection, which is characterized by the property that all the residue class rings of powers of the ideal have FLC. We also give a combinatorial characterization of such ideals.

     

Links of symbolic powers of prime ideals

In this paper, we prove the following. Let be a Cohen-Macaulay local ring of dimension d ≥ 2. Suppose that either R is not regular or if R is regular assume that d ≥ 3. Let t ≥ 2 be a positive integer. If is a regular sequence contained in , then

The topology determined by the symbolic powers of primary ideals

Let q be a p-primary ideal in a Noetherian ring R. The main theorem characterizes when the q-adic and q-symbolic topologies on R are linearly equivalent; that is, when there n kexists an integer k≥0 such that q⁽ⁿ⁾ ?q^n-k for all n≥k. Using this, it is shown that when this holds for q, then it holds for several other primary ideals related to q (both in R and in certain other rings related to R) and that the powers of q(ⁿ) are symbolic powers for all n≥k (so p has primary ideals all of whose powers are symbolic powers).

A note on symbolic and ordinary powers of homogeneous ideals

In this note we are interested in the graded modulesM _k=I^(k)/I^k and , whereI is a saturated ideal in the homogeneous coordinate ringS=K[x₀,…,x_n] of ℙⁿ,I ^(k) is the symbolic power and is the saturation of the ordinary power. Very little is known about these modules, and we provide a bound on their diameters, we compute the Hilbert functions and we study some characteristic submodules in the special case ofn+1 general points in ℙⁿ.

Cohen–Macaulayness of monomial ideals and symbolic powers of Stanley–Reisner ideals

We present criteria for the Cohen–Macaulayness of a monomial ideal in terms of its primary decomposition. These criteria allow us to use tools of graph theory and of linear programming to study the Cohen–Macaulayness of monomial ideals which are intersections of prime ideal powers. We can characterize the Cohen–Macaulayness of the second symbolic power or of all symbolic powers of a Stanley–Reisner ideal in terms of the simplicial complex. These characterizations show that the simplicial complex must be very compact if some symbolic power is Cohen–Macaulay. In particular, all symbolic powers are Cohen–Macaulay if and only if the simplicial complex is a matroid complex. We also prove that the Cohen–Macaulayness can pass from a symbolic power to another symbolic powers in different ways.     

Gorenstein algebras, symmetric matrices, self-linked ideals, and symbolic powers

Inspired by recent work in the theory of central projections onto hypersurfaces, we characterize self-linked perfect ideals of grade as those with a Hilbert-Burch matrix that has a maximal symmetric subblock. We also prove that every Gorenstein perfect algebra of grade can be presented, as a module, by a symmetric matrix. Both results are derived from the same elementary lemma about symmetrizing a matrix that has, modulo a nonzerodivisor, a symmetric syzygy matrix. In addition, we establish a correspondence, roughly speaking, between Gorenstein perfect algebras of grade that are birational onto their image, on the one hand, and self-linked perfect ideals of grade that have one of the self-linking elements contained in the second symbolic power, on the other hand. Finally, we provide another characterization of these ideals in terms of their symbolic Rees algebras, and we prove a criterion for these algebras to be normal.

     

Stanley-Reisner rings and the radicals of lattice ideals

In this article we associate to every lattice ideal I_L,ρ⊂K[x₁,…,x_m] a cone σ and a simplicial complex Δ_σ with vertices the minimal generators of the Stanley-Reisner ideal of σ. We assign a simplicial subcomplex Δ_σ(F) of Δ_σ to every polynomial F. If F₁,…,F_s generate I_L,ρ or they generate rad(I_L,ρ) up to radical, then is a spanning subcomplex of Δ_σ. This result provides a lower bound for the minimal number of generators of I_L,ρ which improves the generalized Krull's principal ideal theorem for lattice ideals. But mainly it provides lower bounds for the binomial arithmetical rank and the A-homogeneous arithmetical rank of a lattice ideal. Finally, we show by a family of examples that the given bounds are sharp.     

Combinatorial symbolic powers

Symbolic powers are studied in the combinatorial context of monomial ideals. When the ideals are generated by quadratic squarefree monomials, the generators of the symbolic powers are obstructions to vertex covering in the associated graph and its blowups. As a result, perfect graphs play an important role in the theory, dual to the role played by perfect graphs in the theory of secants of monomial ideals. We use Gröbner degenerations as a tool to reduce questions about symbolic powers of arbitrary ideals to the monomial case. Among the applications are a new, unified approach to the Gröbner bases of symbolic powers of determinantal and Pfaffian ideals.     

The Golod property for powers of ideals and Koszul ideals

Let S be a regular local ring or a polynomial ring over a field and I be an ideal of S. Motivated by a recent result of Herzog and Huneke, we study the natural question of whether $I^m$ is a Golod ideal for all $m\ge 2$. We observe that the Golod property of an ideal can be detected through the vanishing of certain maps induced in homology. This observation leads us to generalize some known results from the graded case to local rings and obtain new classes of Golod ideals.     

An elementary approach to containment relations between symbolic and ordinary powers of certain monomial ideals

We provide an elementary explanation of a surprising result of Ein–Lazarsfeld–Smith and Hochster–Huneke on the containment between symbolic and ordinary powers of ideals for a certain class of simple monomial ideals.

Koszul incidence algebras, affine semigroups, and Stanley-Reisner ideals

We prove a theorem unifying three results from combinatorial homological and commutative algebra, characterizing the Koszul property for incidence algebras of posets and affine semigroup rings, and characterizing linear resolutions of squarefree monomial ideals. The characterization in the graded setting is via the Cohen-Macaulay property of certain posets or simplicial complexes, and in the more general nongraded setting, via the sequential Cohen-Macaulay property.     

Finite generation of powers of ideals

Suppose is a maximal ideal of a commutative integral domain and that some power of is finitely generated. We show that is finitely generated in each of the following cases: (i) is of height one, (ii) is integrally closed and , (iii) is a monoid domain over a field , where is a cancellative torsion-free monoid such that , and is the maximal ideal . We extend the above results to ideals of a reduced ring such that is Noetherian. We prove that a reduced ring is Noetherian if each prime ideal of has a power that is finitely generated. For each with , we establish existence of a -dimensional integral domain having a nonfinitely generated maximal ideal of height such that is -generated.
