Regularity of squarefree monomial ideals
We survey a number of recent studies of the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of
squarefree monomial ideals. Our focus is on bounds and exact values for the
regularity in terms of combinatorial data from associated simplicial complexes
and/or hypergraphs.Comment: 23 pages; survey paper; minor changes in V.
A good leaf order on simplicial trees
Using the existence of a good leaf in every simplicial tree, we order the
facets of a simplicial tree in order to find combinatorial information about
the Betti numbers of its facet ideal. Applications include an Eliahou-Kervaire
splitting of the ideal, as well as a refinement of a recursive formula of H\`a
and Van Tuyl for computing the graded Betti numbers of simplicial trees.Comment: 17 pages, to appear; Connections Between Algebra and Geometry,
