For a sequence of elements $underlinea= a_1, ..., a_r in R$, let $K^bullet(underlinea;R)$ be the Koszul complex generated by $underlinea$. Let $underlinea^v = a_1^v_1, ..., a_r^v_r in R$.



My question: if $K^bullet(underlinea;R)$ is acylic is $K^bullet(underlinea^v;R)$ acylic?



My thoughts: if $underlinea$ is regular and R is nice enough this is true. When R is nice, regular sequences always give acyclic Koszul complexes and powers of regular sequences are regular. So this means and meaningful counterexamples would have to avoid the case of $R$ Noetherian, local and $R$ Noetherian,graded with $underlinea$ homogeneous of positive degree.

    If $R$ is noetherian, then the answer is positive via the Buchsbaum-Eisenbud acyclicity criterion, and if I'm not mistaken this holds for the non-noetherian case, too, due to Northcott's generalization of the above mentioned criterion.

  • This gives me hope but I don't quite see the argument. For the Buchsbaum-Eisenbud acyclicity criterion: if $M_i$ is the matrix of $K(underlinea;R)$ corresponding to the $i$th differential and $N_i$ the matrix of $K(underlinea^v;R)$ corresponding to the $i$th differential, then $N_i$ should be obtained from $M_i$ by taking all elements and raising it to the appropriate power. How should I relate the fitting ideal $F_j(N_i)$ to the fitting ideal $F_j(M_i)$? Am I missing some way to manipulate determinants? (Thanks for your response by the way.)

  • Were you thinking that after accounting for the rank condition the appropriate fitting ideals would be "monomial" ideals? ("Monomial" in the sense that they are generated by products of the $a_i$'s.) Maybe I should test and see if that happens for $r = 3, 4$.
