A Linear Bound on the Projective Dimension of Height 3 Quadratic Ideals

Zachary Greif, Paolo Mantero, Jason McCullough

In 2016, Ananyan and Hochster gave the first proof of a positive answer to Stillman's Question, which asked for a bound on the projective dimension of a graded polynomial ideal pur…

Focal matroids of covers and homological properties of matroids

Paolo Mantero, Vinh Nguyen

In this paper we prove that the Stanley--Reisner ideal or cover ideal of a matroid is minimally resolvable by iterated mapping cones. As a technical tool for this purpose, we i…

Rational symbolic powers of ideals

Souvik Dey, Tai Huy Ha, Dipendranath Mahato +1

We introduce and study rational symbolic powers of ideals in Noetherian rings. We give membership criteria for rational symbolic powers and discuss settings where they agree with i…

Slightly mixed symbolic powers of matroids are locally glicci

Paolo Mantero, Vinh Nguyen

Let $\M$ be a matroid, and let $I_{\M}$ be either the Stanley--Reisner or the cover ideal of $\M$. In this paper we prove that for any matroid $\M$ on , any $\ell\in \ZZ_+$, a…

Ordinary and symbolic powers of matroids via polarization

Justin Lyle, Paolo Mantero

In this paper, we propose a uniform approach to tackle problems about squarefree monomial ideals whose powers have good properties. We employ this approach to achieve a twofold goa…

The Structure of Symbolic Powers of Matroids

Paolo Mantero, Vinh Nguyen

We describe the structure of the symbolic powers of the Stanley-Reisner ideals, and cover ideals, , of matroids. We (a) prove a structure theorem describing a minim…

A formula for symbolic powers

Paolo Mantero, Cleto B. Miranda-Neto, Uwe Nagel

Let be a Cohen-Macaulay ring which is local or standard graded over a field, and let be an unmixed ideal that is also generically a complete intersection. Our goal in this…

The structure of Koszul algebras defined by four quadrics

Paolo Mantero, Matthew Mastroeni

Avramov, Conca, and Iyengar ask whether for all when is a Koszul algebra minimally defined by quadrics. In recent work, we give an affi…

The Alexander-Hirschowitz theorem and related problems

Huy Tai Ha, Paolo Mantero

We present a proof of the celebrated result due to Alexander and Hirschowitz which determines when a general set of double points in has the expected Hilbert function…

Betti numbers of Koszul algebras defined by four quadrics

Paolo Mantero, Matthew Mastroeni

Let be an ideal generated by quadrics in a standard graded polynomial ring over a field. A question of Avramov, Conca, and Iyengar asks whether the Betti numbers of $R = S/…

The structure and free resolutions of the symbolic powers of star configurations of hypersurfaces

Paolo Mantero

Star configurations of points are configurations with known (and conjectured) extremal behaviors among all configurations of points in ; additional interest come fro…

Singularities of Rees-like Algebras

Paolo Mantero, Jason McCullough, Lance Edward Miller

Recently, Peeva and the second author constructed irreducible projective varieties with regularity much larger than their degree, yielding counterexamples to the Eisenbud-Goto Conj…

The projective dimension of three cubics is at most 5

Paolo Mantero, Jason McCullough

Let be a polynomial ring over a field and an ideal generated by three forms of degree three. Motivated by Stillman's question, Engheta proved that the projective dimension…

Hypergraphs with high projective dimension and 1-dimensional Hypergraphs

Kuei-Nuan Lin, Paolo Mantero

We prove a sufficient and a necessary condition for a square-free monomial ideal associated to a (dual) hypergraph to have projective dimension equal to the minimal number of g…

Ubiquity of complete intersection liaison classes

Mark Johnson, Paolo Mantero

In this paper, we provide constructions to enumerate large numbers of CI-liaison classes. To this end, we introduce a liaison invariant and prove several results concerning it, not…
