Binomial generation of the radical of a lattice ideal

Let $I_{L, \rho}$ be a lattice ideal. We provide a necessary and sufficient criterion under which a set of binomials in $I_{L, \rho}$ generate the radical of $I_{L, \rho}$ up to radical. We apply our results to the problem of determining the minimal number of generators of $I_{L, \rho}$ or of the $rad(I_{L, \rho})$ up to radical.Comment: 14 pages, to appear in Journal of Algebr

On the binomial arithmetical rank of lattice ideals

To any lattice $L \subset \mathbb{Z}^{m}$ one can associate the lattice ideal $I_{L} \subset K[x_{1},...,x_{m}]$. This paper concerns the study of the relation between the binomial arithmetical rank and the minimal number of generators of $I_{L}$. We provide lower bounds for the binomial arithmetical rank and the $\mathcal{A}$-homogeneous arithmetical rank of $I_{L}$. Furthermore, in certain cases we show that the binomial arithmetical rank equals the minimal number of generators of $I_{L}$. Finally we consider a class of determinantal lattice ideals and study some algebraic properties of them.Comment: 22 page

Minimality of toric arrangements

We prove that the complement of a toric arrangement has the homotopy type of a minimal CW-complex. As a corollary we deduce that the integer cohomology of these spaces is torsionfree.We apply discrete Morse theory to the toric Salvetti complex, providing a sequence of cellular collapses that leads to a minimal complex

Geometric and Topological Combinatorics

The 2007 Oberwolfach meeting “Geometric and Topological Combinatorics” presented a great variety of investigations where topological and algebraic methods are brought into play to solve combinatorial and geometric problems, but also where geometric and combinatorial ideas are applied to topological questions

Arithmetical rank of binomial ideals

In this paper, we investigate the arithmetical rank of a binomial ideal J. We provide lower bounds for the binomial arithmetical rank and the J-complete arithmetical rank of J. Special attention is paid to the case where J is the binomial edge ideal of a graph. We compute the arithmetical rank of such an ideal in various cases. © 2017, Springer International Publishing AG

International Congress of Mathematicians: 2022 July 6–14: Proceedings of the ICM 2022

Following the long and illustrious tradition of the International Congress of Mathematicians, these proceedings include contributions based on the invited talks that were presented at the Congress in 2022. Published with the support of the International Mathematical Union and edited by Dmitry Beliaev and Stanislav Smirnov, these seven volumes present the most important developments in all fields of mathematics and its applications in the past four years. In particular, they include laudations and presentations of the 2022 Fields Medal winners and of the other prestigious prizes awarded at the Congress. The proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians provide an authoritative documentation of contemporary research in all branches of mathematics, and are an indispensable part of every mathematical library
