Lyubeznik's Resolution and Rooted Complexes

Isabella Novik

DOI: 10.1023/A:1020838732281

Abstract

We describe a new family of free resolutions for a monomial ideal I, generalizing Lyubeznik”s construction. These resolutions are cellular resolutions supported on the rooted complexes of the lcm-lattice of I. Our resolutions are minimal for the matroid ideal of a finite projective space.
