Gröbner Bases for Increasing Sequences

Let $q,n \geq 1$ be integers, $[q]=\{1,\ldots, q\}$, and $\mathbb F$ be a field with $|\mathbb F|\geq q$. The set of increasing sequences $I(n,q)=\{(f_1,f_2, \dots, f_n) \in [q]^n:~ f_1\leq f_2\leq\cdots \leq f_n \}$ can be mapped via an injective map $i: [q]\rightarrow \mathbb F$ into a subset $J(n,q)$ of the affine space ${\mathbb F}^n$. We describe reduced Gröbner bases, standard monomials and Hilbert function of the ideal of polynomials vanishing on $J(n,q)$. As applications we give an interpolation basis for $J(n,q)$, and lower bounds for the size of increasing Kakeya sets, increasing Nikodym sets, and for the size of affine hyperplane covers of $J(n,q)$.
