✦ Synopsis
For a Noetherian local ring R, if R/a is Cohen-Macaulay, then the ideal a can be generated by at most (e -2)(νd -1) + 2 elements, where ν is the embedding dimension of R and where d and e 3 are the dimension and the multiplicity of R/a, respectively. This bound is in general much sharper than the bounds given by Sally or Boratyński-Eisenbud-Rees in case a has height bigger than 2. Moreover, no Cohen-Macaulay assumption on R is required.

In this paper, we study linkage by a wider class of ideals than the complete intersections. We are most interested in how the Cohen᎐Macaulay property behaves along this more general notion of linkage. In particular, if ideals A and B are linked by a generically Gorenstein Cohen᎐Macaulay ideal I, and
We say that a Cohen-Macaulay poset (partially ordered set) is "superior" if every open interxal \((x, y)\) of \(P^{*}\) with \(\mu_{p}(x, y) \neq 0\) is doubly Cohen-Macaulay. For example, if \(L=P^{\wedge}\) is a modular lattice, then the Cohen-Macaulay poset \(P\) is superior. We present a formula
Many combinatorial polynomials are related to rank-generating functions of Cohen-Macaulay complexes; notable among these are reliability, chromatic, flow, Birkhoff, and order polynomials. We prove two analytic theorems on the location of zeros of polynomials which have direct applications to the ran
