Multigraded Betti numbers of simplicial forests (Q2448290): Difference between revisions

\textit{R. R. Bouchat} [J. Commut. Algebra 2, No. 1, 1--35 (2010; Zbl 1238.13028)] showed that the edge ideal of a tree graph can only have 0 and 1 as its multigraded Betti numbers. This is not a property held by arbitrary ideals. The authors of the present article generalize Bouchat's result to facet ideals of simplicial forests, i.e., simplicial complexes that admit a leaf decomposition analogous to that of leaves of a tree graph.
