The Semigroup of Betti Diagrams
نویسنده
چکیده
The recent proof of the Boij-Söderberg conjectures reveals new structure about Betti diagrams of modules, giving a complete description of the cone of Betti diagrams. We begin to expand on this new structure by investigating the semigroup of Betti diagrams. We prove that this semigroup is finitely generated, and we answer several other fundamental questions about this semigroup.

Beyond Numerics: the Existence of Pure Filtrations
A recent result of Boij-Söderberg and Eisenbud-Schreyer proves that the Betti diagram of any graded module decomposes as a positive rational linear combination of pure diagrams. We consider the follow-up question of whether this numerical decomposition ever corresponds to an actual filtration of the minimal free resolution itself. Our main result is an affirmative answer to this question in man...
متن کاملLascoux-style Resolutions and the Betti Numbers of Matching and Chessboard Complexes
This paper generalizes work of Lascoux and Jo zeeak-Pragacz-Weyman computing the characteristic zero Betti numbers in minimal free resolutions of ideals generated by 2 2 minors of generic matrices and generic symmetric matrices, respectively. In the case of 2 2 minors, the quotients of certain polynomial rings by these ideals are the classical Segre and quadratic Veronese subalgebras, and we co...
متن کاملNon-simplicial Decompositions of Betti Diagrams of Complete Intersections
We investigate decompositions of Betti diagrams over a polynomial ring within the framework of Boij–Söderberg theory. That is, given a Betti diagram, we decompose it into pure diagrams. Relaxing the requirement that the degree sequences in such pure diagrams be totally ordered, we are able to define a multiplication law for Betti diagrams that respects the decomposition and allows us to write a...
متن کاملMinimal Resolutions and the Homology of Matching and Chessboard Complexes
We generalize work of Lascoux and Józefiak-Pragacz-Weyman on Betti numbers for minimal free resolutions of ideals generated by 2× 2 minors of generic matrices and generic symmetric matrices, respectively. Quotients of polynomial rings by these ideals are the classical Segre and quadratic Veronese subalgebras, and we compute the analogous Betti numbers for some natural modules over these Segre a...
متن کاملBetti Numbers of Graded Modules and the Multiplicity Conjecture in the Non-cohen-macaulay Case
Abstract. We use the results by Eisenbud and Schreyer [3] to prove that any Betti diagram of a graded module over a standard graded polynomial ring is a positive linear combination Betti diagrams of modules with a pure resolution. This implies the Multiplicity Conjecture of Herzog, Huneke and Srinivasan [5] for modules that are not necessarily Cohen-Macaulay. We give a combinatorial proof of th...
