Freiman Borel type ideals

Abstract

An equigenerated monomial ideal $I$ in the polynomial ring $S= K[x_1,\ldots,x_n]$ is a Freiman ideal if $\mu(I^2)=\ell(I)\mu(I)-{\ell(I)\choose 2}$ where $\ell(I)$ is the analytic spread of $I$ and $\mu(I)$ is the number of minimal generators of $I$. In this paper, we classify certain classes of Borel type ideals, including Borel ideals with multiple Borel generators and principal $k$-Borel ideals, which are Freiman.
