We study powers of binomial edge ideals associated with closed and block graphs.

In previous work, based on the work of Zwara and Yoshino, we defined and studied degenerations of objects in triangulated categories analogous to the degeneration of modules. In triangulated categories ${\mathcal{T}}$ , it is surprising that the zero object may degenerate. We show that the triangulated subcategory of ${\mathcal{T}}$ generated by the objects that are degenerations of zero coincides with the triangulated subcategory of ${\mathcal{T}}$ consisting of the objects with a vanishing image in the Grothendieck group $K_{0}({\mathcal{T}})$ of ${\mathcal{T}}$ .

Let I be a zero-dimensional ideal in the polynomial ring $K[x_1,\ldots ,x_n]$ over a field K. We give a bound for the number of roots of I in $K^n$ counted with combinatorial multiplicity. As a consequence, we give a proof of Alon’s combinatorial Nullstellensatz.

Unfortunately, there is a mistake in [PS, Lemma 3.10] which invalidates [PS, Theorem 3.12]. We show that the theorem still holds if the ring is assumed to be Gorenstein.

The purpose of this note is to establish isomorphisms up to bounded torsion between relative K0-groups and Chow groups with modulus as defined by Binda and Saito.

We prove that each positive power of the maximal ideal of a commutative Noetherian local ring is Tor-rigid and strongly rigid. This gives new characterizations of regularity and, in particular, shows that such ideals satisfy the torsion condition of a long-standing conjecture of Huneke and Wiegand.

In this short note, we confirm a conjecture of Vasconcelos which states that the Rees algebra of any Artinian almost complete intersection monomial ideal is almost Cohen–Macaulay.

We consider the space $X=\bigwedge ^{3}\mathbb{C}^{6}$ of alternating senary 3-tensors, equipped with the natural action of the group $\operatorname{GL}_{6}$ of invertible linear transformations of $\mathbb{C}^{6}$ . We describe explicitly the category of $\operatorname{GL}_{6}$ -equivariant coherent ${\mathcal{D}}_{X}$ -modules as the category of representations of a quiver with relations, which has finite representation type. We give a construction of the six simple equivariant ${\mathcal{D}}_{X}$ -modules and give formulas for the characters of their underlying $\operatorname{GL}_{6}$ -structures. We describe the (iterated) local cohomology groups with supports given by orbit closures, determining, in particular, the Lyubeznik numbers associated to the orbit closures.

We describe generators of disguised residual intersections in any commutative Noetherian ring. It is shown that, over Cohen–Macaulay rings, the disguised residual intersections and algebraic residual intersections are the same, for ideals with sliding depth. This coincidence provides structural results for algebraic residual intersections in a quite general setting. It is shown how the DG-algebra structure of Koszul homologies affects the determination of generators of residual intersections. It is shown that the Buchsbaum–Eisenbud family of complexes can be derived from the Koszul–Čech spectral sequence. This interpretation of Buchsbaum–Eisenbud families has a crucial rule to establish the above results.

We prove that the integral closure of a strongly Golod ideal in a polynomial ring over a field of characteristic zero is strongly Golod, positively answering a question of Huneke. More generally, the rational power $I_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$ of an arbitrary homogeneous ideal is strongly Golod for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}\geqslant 2$ and, if $I$ is strongly Golod, then $I_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}}$ is strongly Golod for $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6FC}\geqslant 1$. We also show that all the coefficient ideals of a strongly Golod ideal are strongly Golod.

Let (R, ) be an analytically unramified local ring of positive prime characteristic p. For an ideal I, let I* denote its tight closure. We introduce the tight Hilbert function $$H_I^*\left( n \right) = \Im \left( {R/\left( {{I^n}} \right)*} \right)$$ and the corresponding tight Hilbert polynomial $$P_I^*\left( n \right)$$ , where I is an m-primary ideal. It is proved that F-rationality can be detected by the vanishing of the first coefficient of $$P_I^*\left( n \right)$$ . We find the tight Hilbert polynomial of certain parameter ideals in hypersurface rings and Stanley-Reisner rings of simplicial complexes.

The notion of Hochschild cochains induces an assignment from $\mathsf{Aff}$ , affine DG schemes, to monoidal DG categories. We show that this assignment extends, under appropriate finiteness conditions, to a functor $\mathbb{H}:\mathsf{Aff}\rightarrow \mathsf{Alg}^{\text{bimod}}(\mathsf{DGCat})$ , where the latter denotes the category of monoidal DG categories and bimodules. Any functor $\mathbb{A}:\mathsf{Aff}\rightarrow \mathsf{Alg}^{\text{bimod}}(\mathsf{DGCat})$ gives rise, by taking modules, to a theory of sheaves of categories $\mathsf{ShvCat}^{\mathbb{A}}$ . In this paper, we study $\mathsf{ShvCat}^{\mathbb{H}}$ . Loosely speaking, this theory categorifies the theory of $\mathfrak{D}$ -modules, in the same way as Gaitsgory’s original $\mathsf{ShvCat}$ categorifies the theory of quasi-coherent sheaves. We develop the functoriality of $\mathsf{ShvCat}^{\mathbb{H}}$ , its descent properties and the notion of $\mathbb{H}$ -affineness. We then prove the $\mathbb{H}$ -affineness of algebraic stacks: for ${\mathcal{Y}}$ a stack satisfying some mild conditions, the $\infty$ -category $\mathsf{ShvCat}^{\mathbb{H}}({\mathcal{Y}})$ is equivalent to the $\infty$ -category of modules for $\mathbb{H}({\mathcal{Y}})$ , the monoidal DG category of higher differential operators. The main consequence, for ${\mathcal{Y}}$ quasi-smooth, is the following: if ${\mathcal{C}}$ is a DG category acted on by $\mathbb{H}({\mathcal{Y}})$ , then ${\mathcal{C}}$ admits a theory of singular support in $\operatorname{Sing}({\mathcal{Y}})$ , where $\operatorname{Sing}({\mathcal{Y}})$ is the space of singularities of ${\mathcal{Y}}$ . As an application to the geometric Langlands programme, we indicate how derived Satake yields an action of $\mathbb{H}(\operatorname{LS}_{{\check{G}}})$ on $\mathfrak{D}(\operatorname{Bun}_{G})$ , thereby equipping objects of $\mathfrak{D}(\operatorname{Bun}_{G})$ with singular support in $\operatorname{Sing}(\operatorname{LS}_{{\check{G}}})$ .

Let R be a Cohen–Macaulay local ring. It is shown that under some mild conditions, the Cohen–Macaulay property is preserved under linkage. We also study the connection of the (Sn) locus of a horizontally linked module and the attached primes of certain local cohomology modules of its linked module.

We show that the virtual cohomological dimension of a Coxeter group is essentially the regularity of the Stanley–Reisner ring of its nerve. Using this connection between geometric group theory and commutative algebra, as well as techniques from the theory of hyperbolic Coxeter groups, we study the behavior of the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of square-free quadratic monomial ideals. We construct examples of such ideals which exhibit arbitrarily high regularity after linear syzygies for arbitrarily many steps. We give a doubly logarithmic bound on the regularity as a function of the number of variables if these ideals are Cohen–Macaulay.

By use of a natural extension map and a power series method, we obtain a local stability theorem for $p$ -Kähler structures with the $(p,p+1)$ th mild $\unicode[STIX]{x2202}\overline{\unicode[STIX]{x2202}}$ -lemma under small differentiable deformations.

A conjecture of Huneke and Wiegand claims that, over one-dimensional commutative Noetherian local domains, the tensor product of a finitely generated, non-free, torsion-free module with its algebraic dual always has torsion. Building on a beautiful result of Corso, Huneke, Katz and Vasconcelos, we prove that the conjecture is affirmative for a large class of ideals over arbitrary one-dimensional local domains. Furthermore, we study a higher-dimensional analogue of the conjecture for integrally closed ideals over Noetherian rings that are not necessarily local. We also consider a related question on the conjecture and give an affirmative answer for first syzygies of maximal Cohen–Macaulay modules.

We investigate whether the property of having linear quotients is inherited by ideals generated by multigraded shifts of a Borel ideal and a squarefree Borel ideal. We show that the ideal generated by the first multigraded shifts of a Borel ideal has linear quotients, as do the ideal generated by the $k$th multigraded shifts of a principal Borel ideal and an equigenerated squarefree Borel ideal for each $k$. Furthermore, we show that equigenerated squarefree Borel ideals share the property of being squarefree Borel with the ideals generated by multigraded shifts.

We apply the Auslander–Buchweitz approximation theory to show that the Iyama and Yoshino's subfactor triangulated category can be realized as a triangulated quotient. Applications of this realization go in three directions. Firstly, we recover both a result of Iyama and Yang and a result of the third author. Secondly, we extend the classical Buchweitz's triangle equivalence from Iwanaga–Gorenstein rings to Noetherian rings. Finally, we obtain the converse of Buchweitz's triangle equivalence and a result of Beligiannis, and give characterizations for Iwanaga–Gorenstein rings and Gorenstein algebras.

We analyse infinitesimal deformations of pairs $(X,{\mathcal{F}})$ with ${\mathcal{F}}$ a coherent sheaf on a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0. We describe a differential graded Lie algebra controlling the deformation problem, and we prove an analog of a Mukai–Artamkin theorem about the trace map.

We prove results concerning the multiplicity as well as the Cohen–Macaulay and Gorenstein properties of the special fiber ring $\mathscr{F}(E)$ of a finitely generated $R$-module $E\subsetneq R^{e}$ over a Noetherian local ring $R$ with infinite residue field. Assuming that $R$ is Cohen–Macaulay of dimension 1 and that $E$ has finite colength in $R^{e}$, our main result establishes an asymptotic length formula for the multiplicity of $\mathscr{F}(E)$, which, in addition to being of independent interest, allows us to derive a Cohen–Macaulayness criterion and to detect a curious relation to the Buchsbaum–Rim multiplicity of $E$ in this setting. Further, we provide a Gorensteinness characterization for $\mathscr{F}(E)$ in the more general situation where $R$ is Cohen–Macaulay of arbitrary dimension and $E$ is not necessarily of finite colength, and we notice a constraint in terms of the second analytic deviation of the module $E$ if its reduction number is at least three.
