Regularity of Edge Ideals and Their Powers
We survey recent studies on the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of edge ideals
of graphs and their powers. Our focus is on bounds and exact values of and the asymptotic linear function , for in terms of combinatorial data of the given graph Comment: 31 pages, 15 figure
On the symbolic powers of binomial edge ideals
We show that under some conditions, if the initial ideal in of an
ideal in a polynomial ring has the property that its symbolic and ordinary
powers coincide, then the ideal shares the same property. We apply this
result to prove the equality between symbolic and ordinary powers for binomial
edge ideals with quadratic Gr\"obner basis
Symbolic powers of monomial ideals and Cohen-Macaulay vertex-weighted digraphs
In this paper we study irreducible representations and symbolic Rees algebras
of monomial ideals. Then we examine edge ideals associated to vertex-weighted
oriented graphs. These are digraphs having no oriented cycles of length two
with weights on the vertices. For a monomial ideal with no embedded primes we
classify the normality of its symbolic Rees algebra in terms of its primary
components. If the primary components of a monomial ideal are normal, we
present a simple procedure to compute its symbolic Rees algebra using Hilbert
bases, and give necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality between
its ordinary and symbolic powers. We give an effective characterization of the
Cohen--Macaulay vertex-weighted oriented forests. For edge ideals of transitive
weighted oriented graphs we show that Alexander duality holds. It is shown that
edge ideals of weighted acyclic tournaments are Cohen--Macaulay and satisfy
