Cartwright--Sturmfelsness of complementary determinantal edge ideals
Abstract
We introduce complementary determinantal edge ideals. For a graph G on n vertices, the complementary determinantal edge ideal Jc(G) is generated by the maximal minors of a generic (n−2)× n matrix obtained by deleting the two columns indexed by each edge of G. We completely characterize the graphs for which Jc(G) is Cartwright--Sturmfels with respect to the grading by columns. We prove that this property is equivalent to the existence of a multilinear universal Gröbner basis and characterize the graphs satisfying these equivalent conditions. In particular, the ideals satisfying these equivalent conditions are radical.
