Bounds for the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of Ext modules, over a polynomial ring over a field, are given in terms of the initial degrees, Castelnuovo-Mumford regularities and number of generators of the two graded modules involved. These general bounds are refined in the case the second module is the ring. Other estimates, for instance on the size of graded pieces of these modules, are give...

‎A recent result due to Ha and Van Tuyl proved that the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of the quotient ring $R/I(G)$ is at most matching number of $G$‎, ‎denoted by match$(G)$‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎we provide a generalization of this result for powers of edge ideals‎. ‎More precisely‎, ‎we show that for every graph $G$ and every $sgeq 1$‎, ‎$${rm reg}( R‎/ ‎I(G)^{s})leq (2s-1) |E(G)|^{s-1} {rm ma...

It is shown that when a special vertex stretching is applied to a graph, the cochordal cover number of the graph increases exactly by one, as it happens to its induced matching number and (Castelnuovo-Mumford) regularity. As a consequence, it is shown that the induced matching number and cochordal cover number of a special vertex stretching of a graph G are equal provided G is well-covered bipa...

The main goal of the paper is to generalize Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity for coherent sheaves on projective spaces to coherent sheaves on n-dimensional smooth projective varieties X with an n-block collection B which generates the bounded derived category Db(OX -mod). To this end, we use the theory of n-blocks and Beilinson type spectral sequence to define the notion of regularity of a cohere...

1 Veronese rings, Segre embeddings or more generally Segre-Veronese embeddings are very important rings in Algebraic Geometry. In this paper we present an original, elementary way to compute the Hilbert-Poincare series of these rings, as a consequence we compute their Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity, and also the leading term of the h−vector. Moreover, we can compute the Castelnuovo-Mumford regu...

KOSZUL ALGEBRAS, CASTELNUOVO-MUMFORD REGULARITY, AND GENERIC INITIAL IDEALS Giulio Caviglia The University of Kansas Advisor: Craig Huneke August, 2004 The central topics of this dissertation are: Koszul Algebras, bounds for the Castelnuovo Mumford regularity, and methods involving the use of generic changes of coordinates and generic hyperplane restrictions. We give an introduction to Koszul a...
