Abstract: We study Betti strata of rational normal curves via a connection to the chip firing game. Our main results are: i. a comparison theorem that states that any Cohen-Macaulay initial monomial ideal of the rational normal curve (of a given degree and embedded in the standard form) shares its graded Betti table with the corresponding rational normal curve, ii. a connectivity theorem that explicitly constructs a family of minimal free resolutions that interpolates between the minimal free resolution of the rational normal curve and a Cohen-Macaulay initial monomial ideal thereof. The key technique, introduced in this article, is to interpret the defining ideal of the rational normal curve as an ideal associated to a generalisation of a cycle graph called a parcycle. This association allows us to study rational normal curves via combinatorial methods. Other results include a combinatorial minimal free resolution for the rational normal curve and minimal cellular resolutions for all its Cohen-Macaulay initial monomial ideals.
