Koszul almost complete intersections

Abstract: Let

R = S / I

be a quotient of a standard graded polynomial ring

S

by an ideal

I

generated by quadrics. If

R

is Koszul, a question of Avramov, Conca, and Iyengar asks whether the Betti numbers of

R

over

S

can be bounded above by binomial coefficients on the minimal number of generators of

I

. Motivated by previous results for Koszul algebras defined by three quadrics, we give a complete classification of the structure of Koszul almost complete intersections and, in the process, give an affirmative answer to the above question for all such rings.

Review text

Let \(R = S/I\) be a quotient of a standard graded polynomial ring over a field. We assume that \(I\) is generated by quadrics. A paper of Avramov, Conca and Iyengar [\textit{L. L. Avramov} et al., Math. Res. Lett. 17, No. 2, 197--210 (2010; Zbl 1231.13012)] asked the following. If \(R\) is Koszul and \(I\) is minimally generated by \(m\) elements, do the Betti numbers satisfy \(\beta_i^S (R) \leq \binom{m}{i}\)? In particular, is \(\text{pd}_S R \leq m\)? This is known to hold in some special cases, but remains open in general. The current paper proves that it holds for Koszul \textit{almost complete intersections} (i.e. when \(I\) is generated by \(\text{ht } I +1\) elements) generated by any number of quadrics. This is a consequence of a stronger result, namely a complete classification of the structure of Koszul almost complete intersections.
