On the effective membership problem for polynomial ideals

arXiv:1211.5096

Abstract

We discuss the possibility of representing elements in polynomial ideals in $\C^N$ with optimal degree bounds. Classical theorems due to Macaulay and Max Noether say that such a representation is possible under certain conditions on the variety of the associated homogeneous ideal. We present some variants of these results, as well as generalizations to subvarieties of $\C^N$.
