Abstract: In this article we mainly consider the positively Z-graded polynomial ring R=F[X,Y] over an arbitrary field F and Hilbert series of finitely generated graded R-modules. The central result is an arithmetic criterion for such a series to be the Hilbert series of some R-module of positive depth. In the generic case, that is, the degrees of X and Y being coprime, this criterion can be formulated in terms of the numerical semigroup generated by those degrees.


Let \({\mathbb F}\) be a field and \(R={\mathbb F}[X_1,\ldots,X_n]\) be the polynomial ring, with \(\deg X_i=d_i\geq 1\) for \(1\leq i\leq n.\) Let \(M\) be a finitely generated graded \(R\)-module, whose Hilbert series is \(H_M.\) The depth of \(M\) is not encoded in its Hilbert series, so the Hilbert depth of \(M\) is defined and it is denoted by \(\text{Hdep}(M).\) The authors study \(\text{Hdep}(M)\) when \(R={\mathbb F}[X,Y]\) and \(\deg X\) and \(\deg Y\) are coprime. They find an arithmetic characterization of positive Hilbert depth, using the theory of numerical semigroups.
