Strong persistence and associated prime of powers of monomial ideals (2202.05319v3)

Abstract: Let $R=K[x_1,\ldots, x_n]$ be the polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ and $I$ be a monomial ideal of degree $d\leq 2$. We show that $(I^{k+1}:I)=I^k$ for all $k\geq 1$ and we disprove a motivation question that was appeared in \cite[Question 2.51]{CHHV} by providing of a counterexample. Also, by this counterexample, we give a negative answer to the question that depth function of square-free monomial ideals are non-increasing.
