Let G be a simple undirected graph on n vertices, and let I(G) ⊆ R = k[x 1 ,. .. , x n ] denote its associated edge ideal. We show that all chordal graphs G are sequentially Cohen-Macaulay; our proof depends upon showing that the Alexander dual of I(G) is componentwise linear. Our result complements Faridi's theorem that the facet ideal of a simplicial tree is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay and He...

This paper addresses problems related to the existence of arithmetic Macaulayfications of projective schemes. Let Y be the blow-up of a projective scheme X = Proj R along the ideal sheaf of I ⊂ R. It is known that there are embeddings Y ∼ = Proj k[(I e) c ] for c ≥ d(I)e + 1, where d(I) denotes the maximal generating degree of I, and that there exists a Cohen-Macaulay ring of the form k[(I e) c...

Models of Cohen measurability

We show that in contrast with the Cohen version of Solovay’s model, it is consistent for the continuum to be Cohen-measurable and for every function to be continuous on a non-meagre set.
