Generic Initial ideals of Singular Curves in Graded Lexicographic Order

preprint2011arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we are interested in the generic initial ideals of \textit{singular} projective curves with respect to the graded lexicographic order. Let CC be a \textit{singular} irreducible projective curve of degree d≥5d\geq 5 with the arithmetic genus ρa(C)ρ_a(C) in $\p^r$ where r≥3r\ge 3. If M(IC)M(I_C) is the regularity of the lexicographic generic initial ideal of ICI_C in a polynomial ring k[x0,...,xr]k[x_0,..., x_r] then we prove that M(IC)M(I_C) is 1+(d−12)−ρa(C)1+\binom{d-1}{2}-ρ_a(C) which is obtained from the monomial xr−3xr−1 (d−12)−ρa(C), x_{r-3} x_{r-1}\,^{\binom{d-1}{2}-ρ_a(C)}, provided that $\dim\Tan_p(C)=2$ for every singular point p∈Cp \in C. This number is equal to one plus the number of non-isomorphic points under a generic projection of CC into $\p^2$. %if °(C)=3,4°(C)=3,4 then M(IC)=°(C)M(I_C)= °(C) by the direct computation. Our result generalizes the work of J. Ahn for \textit{smooth} projective curves and that of A. Conca and J. Sidman \cite{CS} for \textit{smooth} complete intersection curves in $\p^3$. The case of singular curves was motivated by \cite[Example 4.3]{CS} due to A. Conca and J. Sidman. We also provide some illuminating examples of our results via calculations done with {\it Macaulay 2} and \texttt {Singular} \cite{DGPS, GS}.
