Ordinary and symbolic powers of edge ideals of weighted oriented graphs

Abstract

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a weighted oriented graph and $I(\mathcal{D})$ be its edge ideal. In this paper, we show that all the symbolic and ordinary powers of $I(\mathcal{D})$ coincide when $\mathcal{D}$ is a weighted oriented certain class of tree. Finally, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the equality of ordinary and symbolic powers of naturally oriented lines.
