ON THE HILBERT QUASI - POLYNOMIALS FOR NON - STANDARD GRADED RINGS

Abstract The Hilbert function, its generating function and the Hilbert polynomial of a graded ring K[x1, . . . , xk ] have been extensively studied since the famous paper of Hilbert: Ueber die Theorie der algebraischen Formen ([Hilbert, 1890]). In particular the coefficients and the degree of the Hilbert polynomial play an important role in Algebraic Geometry. If the ring graduation is non-standard, then its Hilbert function is not definitely equal to a polynomial but to a quasi-polynomial. It turns out that a Hilbert quasi-polynomial P of degree n splits into a polynomial S of degree n and a lower degree quasi-polynomial T . We have completely determined the degree of T and the first few coefficients of P . Moreover, the quasi-polynomial T has a periodic structure that we have described. We have also developed a software to compute effectively the Hilbert quasi-polynomial for any ring K[x1, . . . , xk ]/I

On the Hilbert quasi-polynomials for non-standard graded rings

The Hilbert function, its generating function and the Hilbert polynomial of a graded ring K[x1, . . . , xk ] have been extensively studied since the famous paper of Hilbert: Ueber die Theorie der algebraischen Formen ([Hilbert, 1890]). In particular, the coefficients and the degree of the Hilbert polynomial play an important role in Algebraic Geometry. If the ring grading is non-standard, then its Hilbert function is not eventually equal to a polynomial but to a quasi-polynomial. It turns out that a Hilbert quasi- polynomial P of degree n splits into a polynomial S of degree n and a lower degree quasi-polynomial T . We have completely determined the degree of T and the first few coefficients of P . Moreover, the quasi-polynomial T has a periodic structure that we have described.

On the Hilbert quasi-polynomials for non-standard graded rings

The Hilbert function, its generating function and the Hilbert polynomial of a graded ring K[x1, ..., xk] have been extensively studied since the famous paper of Hilbert: Ueber die Theorie der algebraischen Formen ([Hilbert, 1890]). In particular, the coefficients and the degree of the Hilbert polynomial play an important role in Algebraic Geometry. If the ring grading is non-standard, then its Hilbert function is not eventually equal to a polynomial but to a quasi-polynomial.
