In this paper we show that every ideal with linear quotients is componentwise linear. We also generalize the Eliahou-Kervaire formula for graded Betti numbers of stable ideals to homogeneous ideals with linear quotients.

We prove graded bounds on the individual Betti numbers of affine and projective complex varieties. In particular, we give for each p, d, r, explicit bounds on the p-th Betti numbers of affine and projective subvarieties of Ck and PC, defined by r polynomials of degrees at most d as a function of p, d and r. Unlike previous bounds these bounds are independent of k, the dimension of the ambient s...

Let S = K[x1, . . . ,xn] be a polynomial ring and R = S/I where I ⊂ S is a graded ideal. The Multiplicity Conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan states that the multiplicity of R is bounded above by a function of the maximal shifts in the minimal graded free resolution of R over S as well as bounded below by a function of the minimal shifts if R is Cohen–Macaulay. In this paper we study t...

The socle of a graded Buchsbaum module is studied and is related to its local cohomology modules. This algebraic result is then applied to face enumeration of Buchsbaum simplicial complexes and posets. In particular, new necessary conditions on face numbers and Betti numbers of such complexes and posets are established. These conditions are used to settle in the affirmative Kühnel’s conjecture ...

The conjectures of M. Boij and J. Söderberg [3], proven by D. Eisenbud and F.-O. Schreyer [8] (see also [7, 4]), link the extremal properties of invariants of graded free resolutions of finitely generated modules over the polynomial ring S = k[x1, . . . , xn] with the Herzog–Huneke–Srinivasan Multiplicity Conjectures. Here k is any field and S has the standard Z-grading. In the course of their ...
