Cohen-macaulayness of Tangent Cones
نویسنده
چکیده
We give a criterion for checking the Cohen-Macaulayness of the tangent cone of a monomial curve by using the Gröbner basis. For a family of monomial curves, we give the full description of the defining ideal of the curve and its tangent cone at the origin. By using this family of curves and their extended versions to higher dimensions, we prove that the minimal number of generators of a Cohen-Macaulay tangent cone of a monomial curve in an affine l-space can be arbitrarily large for l ≥ 4 contrary to the l = 3 case shown by Robbiano and Valla. We also determine the Hilbert series of the associated graded ring of this family of curves and their extended versions.

Gorenstein Injective Dimensions and Cohen-Macaulayness
Let (R,m) be a commutative noetherian local ring. In this paper we investigate the existence of a finitely generated R-module of finite Gorenstein dimension when R is Cohen-Macaulay. We study the Gorenstein injective dimension of local cohomology of complexes and next we show that if R is a non-Artinian Cohen-Macaulay ring, which does not have the minimal multiplicity, then R has a finite gener...
متن کاملReciprocal Domains and Cohen-Macaulay d-Complexes in Rd
We extend a reciprocity theorem of Stanley about enumeration of integer points in polyhedral cones when one exchanges strict and weak inequalities. The proof highlights the roles played by Cohen–Macaulayness and canonical modules. The extension raises the issue of whether a Cohen–Macaulay complex of dimension d embedded piecewise-linearly in R is necessarily a d-ball. This is observed to be tru...

متن کاملThe Tangent Cones at Double points of Prym-Canonical Divisors of Curves of genus 7
Let η be a line bundle on a smooth curve X with η^2=0 such that π_η, the double covering induced by η is an etale morphism. Assume also that X_η be the Prym-canonical model of X associated to K_X.η and Q is a rank 4 quadric containing X_η. After stablishing the projective normality of the prym-canonical models of curves X with Clifford index 2, we obtain in this paper a sufficient condition for...
