Quantum Determinantal Ideals

Introduction. Fix a base field k. The quantized coordinate ring of n×n matrices over k, denoted by q(Mn(k)), is a deformation of the classical coordinate ring of n×n matrices, (Mn(k)). As such, it is a k-algebra generated by n2 indeterminates Xij , for 1 ≤ i,j ≤ n, subject to relations which we state in (1.1). Here, q is a nonzero element of the field k. When q = 1, we recover (Mn(k)), which is...

Prime Ideals in Certain Quantum Determinantal Rings

The ideal I 1 generated by the 2 2 quantum minors in the coordinate algebra of quantum matrices, O q (M m;n (k)), is investigated. Analogues of the First and Second Fundamental Theorems of Invariant Theory are proved. In particular, it is shown that I 1 is a completely prime ideal, that is, O q (M m;n (k))=I 1 is an integral domain, and that O q (M m;n (k))=I 1 is the ring of coinvariants of a ...

Free Resolutions and Sparse Determinantal Ideals

A sparse generic matrix is a matrix whose entries are distinct variables and zeros. Such matrices were studied by Giusti and Merle who computed some invariants of their ideals of maximal minors. In this paper we extend these results by computing a minimal free resolution for all such sparse determinantal ideals. We do so by introducing a technique for pruning minimal free resolutions when a sub...
