Arithmetic Macaulayfication of projective schemes

Algebraic invariants of projective monomial curves associated to generalized arithmetic sequences

Let $K$ be an infinite field and let $m_1,\ldots,m_n$ be a generalized arithmetic sequence of positive integers, i.e., there exist $h, d, m_1 \in\mathbb{Z}^+$ such that $m_i = h m_1 + (i-1)d$ for all $i \in \{2,\ldots,n\}$. We consider the projective monomial curve $\mathcal C\subset \mathbb{P}^{n}_{K}$ parametrically defined by $$x_1=s^{m_1}t^{m_n-m_1},\dots,x_{n-1}=s^{m_{n-1}}t^{m_n-m_{n-1}},x_n=s^{m_n},x_{n+1}=t^{m_n}.$$ In this work, we characterize the Cohen-Macaulay and Koszul properties of the homogeneous coordinate ring $K[\mathcal C]$ of $\mathcal C$. Whenever $K[\mathcal C]$ is Cohen…

On the Arithmetical Rank of Certain Segre Embeddings

We study the number of (set-theoretically) defining equations of Segre products of projective spaces times certain projective hypersurfaces, extending results by Singh and Walther. Meanwhile, we prove some results about the cohomological dimension of certain schemes. In particular, we solve a conjecture of Lyubeznik about an inequality involving the cohomological dimension and the etale cohomological dimension of a scheme, in the characteristic-zero-case and under a smoothness assumption. Furthermore, we show that a relationship between depth and cohomological dimension discovered by Peskine a…

Étale cohomological dimension, a conjecture of Lyubeznik and bounds for arithmetic rank

We produce a criterion for open sets in projective $n$-space over a separably closed field to have étale cohomological dimension bounded by $2n-3$. We use the criterion to exhibit a scheme for which étale cohomological dimension is smaller than what a conjecture of G.~Lyubeznik predicts; the discrepancy is of arithmetic nature. For a monomial ideal, we relate extremal graded Betti numbers and étale cohomological dimension of the complement of the corresponding subspace arrangement. Moreover, we derive upper bounds for its arithmetic rank in terms of invariants distilled from the lcm-lattice.

Projective embeddings of projective schemes blown up at subschemes

Let X be a nonsingular arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay projective scheme, Z a nonsingular subscheme of X. Let π: Y --> X be the blowup of X along the ideal sheaf of Z, E_0 the pull-back of a general hyperplane in X and E the exceptional divisor. In this paper, we study projective embeddings of Y given by the divisor tE_0 - eE. We give explicit values of d and δsuch that for all e > 0 and t > ed + δ, these embeddings is projectively normal and arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay. We also study the regularity of the ideal sheaf and syzygies of these embeddings. When X is a surface and Z is a 0-dimension…

The asymptotic growth of graded linear series on arbitrary projective schemes

Recently, Okounkov, Lazarsfeld and Mustata, and Kaveh and Khovanskii have shown that the growth of a graded linear series on a projective variety over an algebraically closed field is asymptotic to a polynomial. We give a complete description of the possible asymptotic growth of graded linear series on projective schemes over a perfect field. If the scheme is reduced, then the growth is polynomial like, but the growth can be very complex on nonreduced schemes. We also give an example of a graded family of m-primary ideals {I_n} in a nonreduced d-dimensional local ring R, such that the length o…

Arithmetical rank of squarefree monomial ideals generated by five elements or with arithmetic degree four

Let $I$ be a squarefree monomial ideal of a polynomial ring $S$. In this paper, we prove that the arithmetical rank of $I$ is equal to the projective dimension of $S/I$ when one of the following conditions is satisfied: (1) $μ(I) \leq 5$; (2) $\arithdeg I \leq 4$.

On the arithmetic of stable domains

A commutative ring $R$ is stable if every non-zero ideal $I$ of $R$ is projective over its ring of endomorphisms. Motivated by a paper of Bass in the 1960s, stable rings have received wide attention in the literature ever since then. Much is known on the algebraic structure of stable rings and on the relationship of stability with other algebraic properties such as divisoriality and the $2$-generator property. In the present paper we study the arithmetic of stable integral domains, with a focus on arithmetic properties of semigroups of ideals of stable orders in Dedekind domains.

Commutative rings in which every finitely generated ideal is quasi-projective

This paper studies the multiplicative ideal structure of commutative rings in which every finitely generated ideal is quasi-projective. Section 2 provides some preliminaries on quasi-projective modules over commutative rings. Section 3 investigates the correlation with well-known Prufer conditions; namely, we prove that this class of rings stands strictly between the two classes of arithmetical rings and Gaussian rings. Thereby, we generalize Osofsky's theorem on the weak global dimension of arithmetical rings and partially resolve Bazzoni-Glaz's related conjecture on Gaussian rings. We also e…

Regularity, Depth and Arithmetic Rank of Bipartite Edge Ideals

We study minimal free resolutions of edge ideals of bipartite graphs. We associate a directed graph to a bipartite graph whose edge ideal is unmixed, and give expressions for the regularity and the depth of the edge ideal in terms of invariants of the directed graph. For some classes of unmixed edge ideals, we show that the arithmetic rank of the ideal equals projective dimension of its quotient.

Complete intersections in certain affine and projective monomial curves

Let $k$ be an arbitrary field, the purpose of this work is to provide families of positive integers $\mathcal{A} = \{d_1,\ldots,d_n\}$ such that either the toric ideal $I_{\mathcal A}$ of the affine monomial curve $\mathcal C = \{(t^{d_1},\ldots,\,t^{d_n}) \ | \ t \in k\} \subset \mathbb{A}_k^n$ or the toric ideal $I_{\mathcal A^{\star}}$ of its projective closure ${\mathcal C^{\star}} \subset \mathbb{P}_k^n$ is a complete intersection. More precisely, we characterize the complete intersection property for $I_{\mathcal A}$ and for $I_{\mathcal A^{\star}}$ when: (a) $\mathcal{A}$ is a generaliz…
