چکیده
We prove a theorem unifying three results from combinatorial homological and commutative algebra, characterizing the Koszul property for incidence algebras of posets and affine semigroup rings, and characterizing linear resolutions of squarefree monomial ideals. The characterization in the graded setting is via the Cohen-Macaulay property of certain posets or simplicial complexes, and in the more general nongraded setting, via the sequential Cohen-Macaulay property.

Derivation algebras of toric varieties
Normal affine algebraic varieties in characteristic 0 are uniquely determined (up to isomorphism) by the Lie algebra of derivations of their coordinate ring. This was shown by Siebert [Si] and, independently, by Hauser and the third author [HM]. In both papers the assumption of normality is essential. There are nonisomorphic non-normal varieties with isomorphic Lie algebras. The third author [M...
متن کاملTime-Changed Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Processes And Their Applications In Commodity Derivative Models∗
This paper studies subordinate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) processes, i.e., OU diffusions time changed by Lévy subordinators. We construct their sample path decomposition, show that they possess mean-reverting jumps, study their equivalent measure transformations, and the spectral representation of their transition semigroups in terms of Hermite expansions. As an application, we propose a new class...
متن کاملSquare-free Rings and Their Automorphism Group
Finite-dimensional square-freeK-algebras have been completely characterized by Anderson and D’Ambrosia as certain semigroup algebras A ∼= KξS over a square-free semigroup S twisted by some ξ ∈ Z (S,K), a two-dimensional cocycle of S with coefficients in the group of units K∗ of K. D’Ambrosia extended the definition of square-free to artinian rings with unity and showed every square-free ring ha...
متن کاملStructural Facilitation and Structural Inhibition
The paper addresses constraints on long-distance extraction in categorial grammar, involving formulation and application of logical extensions of Lambek calculus. Structural facilitation, i.e. controlled import of structural properties from higher in the hierarchy of substructural logics, is complemented by a proposal for structural inhibition: controlled import of structural properties from lo...
متن کاملGains from diversification on convex combinations: A majorization and stochastic dominance approach
By incorporating both majorization theory and stochastic dominance theory, this paper presents a general theory and a unifying framework for determining the diversification preferences of risk-averse investors and conditions under which they would unanimously judge a particular asset to be superior. In particular, we develop a theory for comparing the preferences of different convex combination...
