Title: Axial constants and sectional regularity of homogeneous ideals
We introduce a notion of sectional regularity for a homogeneous ideal I, which measures the regularity of its general sections with respect to linear spaces of various dimensions. It is related to axial constants defined as the intercepts on the coordinate axes of the set of exponents of monomials in the reverse lexicographic generic initial ideal of I. We show the equivalence of these notions and several other homological and ideal-theoretic invariants. We also establish that these equivalent invariants grow linearly for the family of powers of a given ideal.  more » « less

    LetAAbe a noetherian connected graded algebra. We introduce and study homological invariants that are weighted sums of the homological and internal degrees of cochain complexes of gradedAA-modules, providing weighted versions of Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity, Tor-regularity, Artin–Schelter regularity, and concavity. In some cases an invariant (such as Tor-regularity) that is infinite can be replaced with a weighted invariant that is finite, and several homological invariants of complexes can be expressed as weighted homological regularities. We prove a few weighted homological identities some of which unify different classical homological identities and produce interesting new ones.

  2. We study the variation of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ -invariants in Hida families with residually reducible Galois representations. We prove a lower bound for these invariants which is often expressible in terms of the $p$ -adic zeta function. This lower bound forces these $\unicode[STIX]{x1D707}$ -invariants to be unbounded along the family, and we conjecture that this lower bound is an equality. When $U_{p}-1$ generates the cuspidal Eisenstein ideal, we establish this conjecture and further prove that the $p$ -adic $L$ -function is simply a power of $p$ up to a unit (i.e.  $\unicode[STIX]{x1D706}=0$ ). On the algebraic side, we prove analogous statements for the associated Selmer groups which, in particular, establishes the main conjecture for such forms.

  3. Abstract

    We study the symbolic powers of square-free monomial ideals via symbolic Rees algebras and methods in prime characteristic. In particular, we prove that the symbolic Rees algebra and the symbolic associated graded algebra are split with respect to a morphism that resembles the Frobenius map and that exists in all characteristics. Using these methods, we recover a result by Hoa and Trung that states that the normalized $a$-invariants and the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of the symbolic powers converge. In addition, we give a sufficient condition for the equality of the ordinary and symbolic powers of this family of ideals and relate it to Conforti–Cornuéjols conjecture. Finally, we interpret this condition in the context of linear optimization.

  4. Abstract

    To the families of geometric measures of convex bodies (the area measures of Aleksandrov‐Fenchel‐Jessen, the curvature measures of Federer, and the recently discovered dual curvature measures) a new family is added. The new family of geometric measures, called chord measures, arises from the study of integral geometric invariants of convex bodies. The Minkowski problems for the new measures and their logarithmic variants are proposed and attacked. When the given ‘data’ is sufficiently regular, these problems are a new type of fully nonlinear partial differential equations involving dual quermassintegrals of functions. Major cases of these Minkowski problems are solved without regularity assumptions.

  5. We give an explicit formula for the degree of the Grothendieck polynomial of a Grassmannian permutation and a closely related formula for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the Schubert determinantal ideal of a Grassmannian permutation. We then provide a counterexample to a conjecture of Kummini-Lakshmibai-Sastry-Seshadri on a formula for regularities of standard open patches of particular Grassmannian Schubert varieties and show that our work gives rise to an alternate explicit formula in these cases. We end with a new conjecture on the regularities of standard open patches ofarbitraryGrassmannian Schubert varieties.
