چکیده

The toric Hilbert scheme is a parameter space for all ideals with the same multi-graded Hilbert function as a given toric ideal. Unlike the classical Hilbert scheme, it is unknown whether toric Hilbert schemes are connected. We construct a graph on all the monomial ideals on the scheme, called the flip graph, and prove that the toric Hilbert scheme is connected if and only if the flip graph is connected. These graphs are used to exhibit curves in P whose associated toric Hilbert schemes have arbitrary dimension. We show that the flip graph maps into the Baues graph of all triangulations of the point configuration defining the toric ideal. Inspired by the recent discovery of a disconnected Baues graph, we close with results that suggest the existence of a disconnected flip graph and hence a disconnected toric Hilbert scheme.

Statement of Research Interests

My research is in the area of algebraic combinatorics, with an emphasis on problems from commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. The connection between algebra and combinatorics has had many implications in both fields. In combinatorics the highlights include Stanley’s proofs of the upper bound conjecture [21] and the g-theorem [22] using the theory of Cohen-Macaulay rings and toric varieti...

Local Equations for the Toric Hilbert Scheme

We obtain local equations for the toric Hilbert scheme, which parametrizes all ideals with the same multigraded Hilbert function as a given toric ideal. We also prove a conjecture of Sturmfels’ providing a criterion for an ideal to have such a Hilbert function.

The Toric Hilbert Scheme of a Rank Two Lattice Is Smooth and Irreducible Diane Maclagan and Rekha R. Thomas

The toric Hilbert scheme of a lattice L ⊆ Z is the multigraded Hilbert scheme parameterizing all ideals in k[x1, . . . , xn] with Hilbert function value one for every g in the grading monoid G = N/L. In this paper we show that if L is twodimensional, then the toric Hilbert scheme of L is smooth and irreducible. This result is false for lattices of dimension three and higher as the toric Hilbert...
