Regularity of Edge Ideals Via Suspension
Abstract
We study the Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity of powers of edge ideals. We prove that if G is a bipartite graph, then reg(I(G)s) ≤ 2s + reg I(G) - 2 for all s ≥ 2, which is the best possible upper bound for any s. Suspension plays a key role in proof of the base case s =2.
