For every simple graph [Formula: see text], a class of multiple clique cluster-whiskered graphs [Formula: see text] is introduced, and it is shown that all such graphs are vertex decomposable; thus, the independence simplicial complex [Formula: see text] is sequentially Cohen–Macaulay. The properties of the graphs [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] constructed by Cook and Nagel are studied, including the enumeration of facets of the complex [Formula: see text] and the calculation of Betti numbers of the cover ideal [Formula: see text]. We also prove that the complex[Formula: see text] is strongly shellable and pure for either a Boolean graph [Formula: see text] or the full clique-whiskered graph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], which is obtained by adding a whisker to each vertex of [Formula: see text]. This implies that both the facet ideal [Formula: see text] and the cover ideal [Formula: see text] have linear quotients.

In this paper, we study the notion of chordality and cycles in clutters from a commutative algebraic point of view. The corresponding concept of chordality in commutative algebra is having a linear resolution. We mainly consider the generalization of chordality proposed by Bigdeli et al. in 2017 and the concept of cycles introduced by Cannon and Faridi in 2013, and study their interrelations and algebraic interpretations. In particular, we investigate the relationship between chordality and having linear quotients in some classes of clutters. Also, we show that if [Formula: see text] is a clutter such that 〈[Formula: see text]〉 is a vertex decomposable simplicial complex or I([Formula: see text]) is squarefree stable, then [Formula: see text] is chordal.

In this paper we study the Alexander dual of a vertex decomposable simplicial complex. We define the concept of a vertex splittable ideal and show that a simplicial complex $\Delta$ is vertex decomposable if and only if $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a vertex splittable ideal. Moreover, the properties of vertex splittable ideals are studied. As the main result, it is proved that any vertex splittable ideal has a Betti splitting and the graded Betti numbers of such ideals are explained with a recursive formula. As a corollary, recursive formulas for the regularity and projective dimension of $R/I_{\Delta}$, when $\Delta$ is a vertex decomposable simplicial complex, are given. Moreover, for a vertex decomposable graph $G$, a recursive formula for the graded Betti numbers of its vertex cover ideal is presented. In special cases, this formula is explained, when $G$ is chordal or a sequentially Cohen-Macaulay bipartite graph. Finally, among the other things, it is shown that an edge ideal of a graph is vertex splittable if and only if it has linear resolution.

In this paper, we explore the spanning simplicial complex of wheel graph Wn on vertex set [n]. Combinatorial properties of the spanning simplicial complex of wheel graph are discussed, which are then used to compute the f-vector and Hilbert series of face ring k[Δs(Wn)] for the spanning simplicial complex Δs(Wn). Moreover, the associated primes of the facet ideal [Formula: see text] are also computed.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite simple graph and [Formula: see text] denote its vertex cover ideal in a polynomial ring over a field [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we show that all symbolic powers of vertex cover ideals of certain vertex-decomposable graphs have linear quotients. Using these results, we give various conditions on a subset [Formula: see text] of the vertices of [Formula: see text] so that all symbolic powers of vertex cover ideals of [Formula: see text], obtained from [Formula: see text] by adding a whisker to each vertex in [Formula: see text], have linear quotients. For instance, if [Formula: see text] is a vertex cover of [Formula: see text], then all symbolic powers of [Formula: see text] have linear quotients. Moreover, we compute the Castelnuovo–Mumford regularity of symbolic powers of certain vertex cover ideals.

Let $I\subset K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ be  a zero-dimensional monomial ideal, and $\Delta(I)$ be the simplicial complex whose Stanley--Reisner ideal is the polarization of $I$. It follows from a result of Soleyman Jahan that $\Delta(I)$ is shellable. We give a new short proof of this fact by providing an explicit shelling. Moreover, we show that  $\Delta(I)$ is even vertex decomposable. The ideal $L(I)$, which is defined to be the Stanley--Reisner ideal of the Alexander dual of $\Delta(I)$, has a linear resolution which is cellular and supported on a regular CW-complex. All powers of $L(I)$ have a linear resolution. We compute $\mathrm{depth}\ L(I)^k$ and show that $\mathrm{depth}\ L(I)^k=n$ for all $k\geq n$.

In this paper, we discuss two general models of random simplicial complexes which we call the lower and the upper models. We show that these models are dual to each other with respect to combinatorial Alexander duality. The behavior of the Betti numbers in the lower model is characterized by the notion of critical dimension, which was introduced by Costa and Farber in [Large random simplicial complexes III: The critical dimension, J. Knot Theory Ramifications 26 (2017) 1740010]: random simplicial complexes in the lower model are homologically approximated by a wedge of spheres of dimension equal the critical dimension. In this paper, we study the Betti numbers in the upper model and introduce new notions of critical dimension and spread. We prove that (under certain conditions) an upper random simplicial complex is homologically approximated by a wedge of spheres of the critical dimension.

AbstractA componentwise linear ideal is a graded ideal I of a polynomial ring such that, for each degree q, the ideal generated by all homogeneous polynomials of degree q belonging to I has a linear resolution. Examples of componentwise linear ideals include stable monomial ideals and Gotzmann ideals. The graded Betti numbers of a componentwise linear ideal can be determined by the graded Betti numbers of its components. Combinatorics on squarefree componentwise linear ideals will be especially studied. It turns out that the Stanley-Reisner ideal IΔ arising from a simplicial complex Δ is componentwise linear if and only if the Alexander dual of Δ is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay. This result generalizes the theorem by Eagon and Reiner which says that the Stanley-Reisner ideal of a simplicial complex has a linear resolution if and only if its Alexander dual is Cohen-Macaulay.

We compute the graded Betti numbers for the toric ideal of a family of graphs constructed by adjoining a cycle to a complete bipartite graph. The key observation is that this family admits an initial ideal which has linear quotients. As a corollary, we compute the Hilbert series and [Formula: see text]-vector for all the toric ideals of graphs in this family.
