The growth of the Hilbert function of a graded ring

Let $A=\bigoplus A_i$ be a finitely generated commutative unital graded algebra over a field $k$. Let $d(i)=\dim A_i$. In general $d(i)$ is not a polynomial in $i$ (even not eventually polynomial). ...

Are open $\mathbb{G}_m$-invariant subschemes of an affine scheme precisely the homogeneous radical ideals of its coordinate ring?

This question is certainly not research level and in fact quite elementary which is why I asked it on math.stackexchange before: math.stackexchange. However it doesn't seem to get much attention there ...

$R$ is a UFD iff $R_{\frak{m}}$ is a UFD?

Let $R$ be a graded ring such that $R_0$ is a field and let $\frak{m}$ be the maximal ideal generated by all the elements of positive degree. Then, is it true that $R$ is a UFD iff $R_{\frak{m}}$ is a ...

Weighted blowup of a Cohen-Macaulay ring along a regular sequence is Cohen-Macaulay?

Let $(R, \mathfrak{m})$ be a Cohen-Macaulay ring, let $f_1, \dotsc, f_d \in \mathfrak{m}$ be a regular sequence, and let $n_1, \dotsc, n_d > 0$ be weights (feel free to assume that $n_1 = 1$ if it ...

Affine cone example

Consider the complete intersection ideal ${\displaystyle (f,g_{1},g_{2},g_{3})\subset \mathbb {C} [x_{0},\ldots ,x_{n}]}$ and let $X$ be a projective variety defined by the (product) ideal sheaf ${\...

Homogeneous regular sequence

Consider a $\mathbb{Z}$-graded polynomial ring $R = k[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ over a field $k$, where the elements $x_i$ are homogeneous (they may have negative degree). Let $I$ be a homogeneous ideal that ...

The different gradings of a graded ring, and their schemes

Let $(A,g)$ be a graded commutative ring, where $A$ denotes the commutative ring, and $g$ its grading. What can be said about the set $\mathcal{G}_A := \{ \mathrm{Proj}\Big((A,g)\Big)\ \vert\ g \}$? ...
