We give a formula for the v-number of a graded ideal that can be used to compute this number. Then, we show that for the edge ideal I(G) of a graph G, the induced matching number of G is an upper bound for the v-number of I(G) when G is very well-covered, or G has a simplicial partition, or G is well-covered connected and contains neither four, nor five cycles. In all these cases, the v-number of I(G) is a lower bound for the regularity of the edge ring of G. We classify when the induced matching number of G is an upper bound for the v-number of I(G) when G is a cycle and classify when all vertices of a graph are shedding vertices to gain insight into the family of W2-graphs.
Let I = I(D) be the edge ideal of a weighted oriented graph D, let G be the underlying graph of D, and let I (n) be the n-th symbolic power of I defined using the associated minimal primes of I. We prove that I 2 = I (2) if and only if every vertex of D with weight greater than 1 is a sink and G has no triangles. As a consequence, using a result of Mandal and Pradhan and the classification of normally torsion-free edge ideals of graphs, it follows that I (n) = I n for all n ≥ 1 if and only if every vertex of D with weight greater than 1 is a sink and G is bipartite. If I has no embedded primes, these two properties classify when I is normally torsion-free.

In all these cases the v-number of I(G) is a lower bound for the regularity of the edge ring of G. We classify when the upper bound holds when G is a cycle, and classify when all vertices of a graph G are shedding vertices to gain insight on W2-graphs.
The aims of this work are to study Rees algebras of filtrations of monomial ideals associated to covering polyhedra of rational matrices with non-negative entries and non-zero columns using combinatorial optimization and integer programming, and to study powers of monomial ideals and their integral closures using irreducible representations and polyhedral geometry. We study the Waldschmidt constant and the ic-resurgence of the filtration associated to a covering polyhedron and show how to compute these constants using linear programming. Then we show lower bounds for the ic-resurgence of the ideal of covers of a graph and prove that the lower bound is attained when the graph is perfect.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
