On Characteristic Poset and Stanley Decomposition of S/I

Abstract

Let K be a field and S = K[x1,…,xn] be the polynomial ring in n variables. Let I ⊂ S be a monomial ideal such that S/I is Cohen-Macaulay. By associating a finite poset [Formula: see text] to S/I, we show that if S/I is a Stanley ideal then T/Ĩ is also a Stanley ideal, where T = K[x11,…,x1a1,…,xn1,…,xnan] and Ĩ is the polarization of I.
