Projective Monomial Curves in P

Bases and Ideal Generators for Projective Monomial Curves

In this article we study bases for projective monomial curves and the relationship between the basis and the set of generators for the defining ideal of the curve. We understand this relationship best for curves in P and for curves defined by an arithmetic progression. We are able to prove that the latter are set theoretic complete intersections.

Producing Complete Intersection Monomial Curves in N -space

In this paper, we study the problem of determining set-theoretic and ideal-theoretic complete intersection monomial curves in affine and projective n-space. Starting with a monomial curve which is a set-theoretic (resp. ideal-theoretic) complete intersection in (n − 1)-space we produce infinitely many new examples of monomial curves that are set-theoretic (resp. idealtheoretic) complete interse...

Determinantal ideals and monomial curves in the three-dimensional space

We show that the defining ideal of every monomial curve in the affine or projective three-dimensional space can be set-theoretically defined by three binomial equations, two of which set-theoretically define a determinantal ideal generated by the 2-minors of a 2× 3 matrix with monomial entries.

Hypergraphs with high projective dimension and 1-dimensional hypergraphs

(Dual) hypergraphs have been used by Kimura, Rinaldo and Terai to characterize squarefree monomial ideals J with pd(R/J) ≤ μ(J) − 1, i.e. whose projective dimension equals the minimal number of generators of J minus 1. In this paper we prove sufficient and necessary combinatorial conditions for pd(R/J) ≤ μ(J)−2. The second main result is an effective explicit procedure to compute the projective...
