TL;DR: The Sally module of a Rees algebra relative to one of its Rees subalgebras is a construct that can be used as a mediator for the trade-off of cohomological (e.g. depth) information between $\BB$ and the corresponding associated graded ring for several types of filtrations as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: The Sally module of a Rees algebra $\BB$ relative to one of its Rees subalgebras $\AA$ is a construct that can be used as a mediator for the trade-off of cohomological (e.g. depth) information between $\BB$ and the corresponding associated graded ring for several types of filtrations. While originally devised to deal with filtrations of finite colength, here we treat aspects of these developments for filtrations in higher dimensions as well.

Abstract: In this short note, we confirm a conjecture of Vasconcelos which states that the Rees algebra of any Artinian almost complete intersection monomial ideal is almost Cohen–Macaulay.

TL;DR: In this paper , a generalization of the plane de Jonquières transformation to arbitrary dimension is studied, with an eye for the ideal theoretic side, and some results on the homological behavior of the graph of the transformation are given.
Abstract: A generalization of the plane de Jonquières transformation to arbitrary dimension is studied, with an eye for the ideal theoretic side. In particular, one considers structural properties of the corresponding base ideal and of its defining relations. Useful throughout is the idea of downgraded sequences of forms, a tool considered in many sources for the rounding-up of ideals of defining relations. The emphasis here is on the case where the supporting Cremona transformation of the de Jonquières transformation is the identity map. In this case we give some results on the homological behavior of the graph of the transformation.

TL;DR: In this article, a minimal bigraded resolution of the Rees Algebra associated to a proper rational parametrization of a monomial plane curve is presented, and the maps of the resolution in terms of a generalized version of the Euclidean algorithm are described explicitly.
Abstract: We compute a minimal bigraded resolution of the Rees Algebra associated to a proper rational parametrization of a monomial plane curve We describe explicitly both the bigraded Betti numbers and the maps of the resolution in terms of a generalized version of the Euclidean Algorithm We also explore the relation between pencils of adjoints of the monomial plane curve and elements in a suitable piece of the defining ideal of the Rees Algebra

TL;DR: In this article, a generalization of the plane de Jonquieres transformation to arbitrary dimension is studied, with an eye for the ideal theoretic side, where structural properties of the corresponding base ideal and of its defining relations are considered.

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of ideals generated by binomials and the schemes and varieties associated to them were investigated, and structural results were given for affine algebraic sets that can be defined by binomial ideals.
Abstract: We investigate the structure of ideals generated by binomials (polynomials with at most two terms) and the schemes and varieties associated to them The class of binomial ideals contains many classical examples from algebraic geometry, and it has numerous applications within and beyond pure mathematics The ideals defining toric varieties are precisely the binomial prime ideals Our main results concern primary decomposition: If $I$ is a binomial ideal then the radical, associated primes, and isolated primary components of $I$ are again binomial, and $I$ admits primary decompositions in terms of binomial primary ideals A geometric characterization is given for the affine algebraic sets that can be defined by binomials Our structural results yield sparsity-preserving algorithms for finding the radical and primary decomposition of a binomial ideal
