Weak and strong Lefschetz properties for vertex cover Artinian algebras associated to graphs
Abstract
Let G be a finite simple graph and let Ac(G) be the Artinian algebra associated with its cover ideal. We prove that Ac(G) has the WLP when τ(G)>|V(G)|/2, where τ(G) denotes the size of a minimum vertex cover of G. As a consequence, Ac(G) has the WLP with high probability when the Erdős-Rényi random graph model is considered. Moreover, we study the borderline case τ(G)=|V(G)|/2 and as a result, classify the WLP for paths, cycles, Ferrers graphs, and well-covered trees.
