A cut ideal of a graph records the relations among the cuts of the graph. These toric ideals have been introduced by Sturmfels and Sullivant who also posed the problem of relating their properties to the combinatorial structure of the graph. We study the cut ideals of the family of ring graphs, which includes trees and cycles. We show that they have quadratic Gröbner bases and that their coordi...

et  be a commutative Noetherian ring,  and  two ideals of  and  a finite -module. In this paper, we have studied the vanishing and relative Cohen-Macaulyness of the functor for relative Cohen-Macauly filtered modules with respect to the ideal  (RCMF). We have shown that the for relative Cohen-Macaulay modules holds for any relative Cohen-Macauly module with respect to  with ........

In this paper, we discuss some necessary and sufficient conditions for a curve to be arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, in terms of its general hyperplane section. We obtain a characterization of the degree matrices that can occur for points in the plane that are the general plane section of a non arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay curve of P. We prove that almost all the degree matrices with positive s...

This paper addresses problems related to the existence of arithmetic Macaulayfications of projective schemes. Let Y be the blow-up of a projective scheme X = Proj R along the ideal sheaf of I ⊂ R. It is known that there are embeddings Y ∼ = Proj k[(I e) c ] for c ≥ d(I)e + 1, where d(I) denotes the maximal generating degree of I, and that there exists a Cohen-Macaulay ring of the form k[(I e) c...

We give several characterizations for the linearity property for a maximal Cohen-Macaulay module over a local or graded ring, as well as proofs of existence in some new cases. In particular, we prove that the existence of such modules is preserved when taking Segre products, as well as when passing to Veronese subrings in low dimensions. The former result even yields new results on the existenc...

We define very proper intersections of modules and projective subschemes. It turns out that equidimensional locally Cohen-Macaulay modules intersect very properly if and only if they intersect properly. We prove a Bezout theorem for modules which meet very properly. Furthermore, we show for equidimensional subschemes X and Y : If they intersect properly in an arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay subsc...

A certain inequality is shown to hold for the values of the Möbius function of the poset obtained by attaching a maximum element to a lower Eulerian Cohen– Macaulay poset. In two important special cases, this inequality provides partial results supporting Stanley’s nonnegativity conjecture for the toric h-vector of a lower Eulerian Cohen–Macaulay meet-semilattice and Adin’s nonnegativity conjec...

In this paper we consider bi-Cohen-Macaulay graphs, and give a complete classification of such graphs in the case they are bipartite or chordal. General biCohen-Macaulay graphs are classified up to separation. The inseparable bi-CohenMacaulay graphs are determined. We establish a bijection between the set of all trees and the set of inseparable bi-Cohen-Macaulay graphs.

In this paper we study topological properties of the poset of injective words and the lattice of classical non-crossing partitions. Specifically, it is shown that after the removal of the bottom and top elements (if existent) these posets are doubly Cohen-Macaulay. This extends the well-known result that those posets are shellable. Both results rely on a new poset fiber theorem, for doubly homo...
