Let G be a simple undirected graph on n vertices, and let I(G) ⊆ R = k[x1, . . . , xn] denote its associated edge ideal. We show that all chordal graphs G are sequentially Cohen-Macaulay; our proof depends upon showing that the Alexander dual of I(G) is componentwise linear. Our result complements Faridi’s theorem that the facet ideal of a simplicial tree is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay and impl...

Introduction: Resultants of multi-variate polynomials are fundamental for solving systems of polynomial equations and have numerous applications. Thus they are being intensely studied. Macaulay [3] showed that the projective resultant of a list of multi-variate polynomials is the quotient of two determinants. The numerator of this quotient is the determinant of a (sparse) matrix containing the ...

A commutative local Cohen-Macaulay ring R of finite Cohen-Macaulay type is known to be an isolated singularity; that is, Spec(R) \ {m} is smooth. This paper proves a non-commutative analogue. Namely, if A is a (non-commutative) graded Artin-Schelter Cohen-Macaulay algebra which is FBN and has finite Cohen-Macaulay type, then the non-commutative projective scheme determined by A is smooth.

‎we introduce a generalization of the notion of‎ depth of an ideal on a module by applying the concept of‎ local cohomology modules with respect to a pair‎ ‎of ideals‎. ‎we also introduce the concept of $(i,j)$-cohen--macaulay modules as a generalization of concept of cohen--macaulay modules‎. ‎these kind of modules are different from cohen--macaulay modules‎, as an example shows‎. ‎also an art...

Macaulay posets are posets for which there is an analogue of the classical KruskalKatona theorem for finite sets. These posets are of great importance in many branches of combinatorics and have numerous applications. We survey mostly new and also some old results on Macaulay posets. Emphasis is also put on construction of extremal ideals in Macaulay posets.

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 characterize the shellable complete $t$-partite graphs. We also show for these types of graphs the concepts vertex decomposable, shellable and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay are equivalent. Furthermore, we give a combinatorial condition for the Cohen-Macaulay complete $t$-partite graphs.

We characterize unmixed and Cohen-Macaulay edge-weighted edge ideals of very well-covered graphs. also provide examples oriented graphs that have non-Cohen-Macaulay vertex-weighted ideals, while the ideal their underlying graph is Cohen-Macaulay. This disproves a conjecture posed by Pitones, Reyes, Toledo.

In this article, we delve into the properties possessed by algebras, which we have termed seeds, that map to big Cohen-Macaulay algebras. We will show that over a complete local domain of positive characteristic any two big Cohen-Macaulay algebras map to a common big Cohen-Macaulay algebra. We will also strengthen Hochster and Huneke’s “weakly functorial” existence result for big Cohen-Macaulay...
