Abstract: We show that the generalized minimum distance function is non-increasing as the degree varies for reduced standard graded algebras over a field. This allows us to define its regularity index and its stabilization value. The stabilization value is computed for every cases. We study how the regularity index varies as the number of polynomial increases, and use this to give bounds for it.

Review text

Let $R$ denote a standard graded $\mathbb{K}$-algebra. Given $t$ and $l$ positive integers, denote by $\mathcal{F}_{t,l}$ the set of sets of $\ell$ linearly independent homogeneous elements of degree $t$, $\{ f_1,\dots,f_\ell\}\subseteq R_t$, such that $\operatorname{Ann}_R(f_1,\dots,f_\ell) \not = 0$ and define \[ \delta_R(t,\ell) = \left \{ \begin{array}{ll} e(R) - \max\{e(R/(F)) : F\in \mathcal{F}_{t,\ell} \} & \text{ if }\mathcal{F}_{t,\ell}\not = \emptyset,\\ e(R) & \text{otherwise}, \end{array} \right . \] where $e$ denotes the multiplicity of a graded $R$-module. This function is called the generalized minimum distance function of $R$ and was first defined in [\textit{M. González-Sarabia} et al., J. Algebr. Comb. 50, No. 3, 317--346 (2019; Zbl 1430.13049)]. In Theorem 3.5, the authors show that if $R$ is reduced then $\delta_R(t,\ell)\geq \delta_R(t+1,\ell)$. Then, they define the stabilization value of $R$ by $s_R(\ell) = \lim_{t\to \infty} \delta_R(t,\ell)$ and the regularity index of $R$ by $r_R(\ell) = \min\{t\in \mathbb{N} : \delta_R(t,\ell) = s_R(\ell) \}$. The stabilization value is computed in several cases in Theorem~3.8. In Theorem 3.11, the authors show that if $R$ is reduced then $\delta_R(t,\ell) \leq \delta_R(t,\ell +1)$ and, in Theorem 3.14, assuming that $\operatorname{depth}(R)\geq 2$, they show that $r_R(\ell+1)\leq r_R(\ell)+1$.
