2 Families of Ideals Parametrized by Graphs Let G be a finite graph Let R G a polynomial ring associated to G Let I G R G an ideal associated to G Problem Classify the graphs G such that I G satisfies some nice property. Often I G := ker φ G for some ring homomorphism φ G. Problem Determine generators for I G. How do they depend on the graph G? Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

3 Graph Decompositions Question Are decompositions of the graphs G = G 1 #G 2 reflected in the ideals I G = I G1 #I G2? How to study ideals of large graphs by breaking into simple pieces? + = + = Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

4 Toric Fiber Product Let A = {a 1,..., a r } Z d. Let K[x] := K[x i j : i [r], j [s]], with deg x i j = a i. Let K[y] := K[y i k : i [r], k [t]], with deg y i k = ai. Let K[z] := K[z i jk : i [r], j [s], k [t]], with deg zi jk = ai. Let φ : K[z] K[x] K K[y] = K[x, y] defined by z i jk x i j y i k for all i, j, k. Definition Let I K[x], J K[y] ideals homogeneous w.r.t. grading by A. The toric fiber product of I and J is the ideal I A J = φ 1 (I + J). Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

5 Two Important Examples Example (Coarse Grading) Let K[x], K[y] have common grading deg x i = deg y j = 1 for all i, j. Then I K[x], J K[y] homogeneous, are homogeneous in the standard/coarse grading. I A J K[z] is the ordinary Segre product ideal. Example (Fine Grading) Let K[x 1,..., x r ], K[y 1,..., y r ] have common grading deg x i = deg y i = e i for all i. Then I K[x], J K[y] homogeneous, are monomial ideals. I A J = I(z) + J(z) K[z 1,..., z r ] is the sum of monomial ideals. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

6 A More Complex Example Let I = x kl1 m 1 x kl2 m 2 x kl1 m 2 x kl2 m 1 : k [r 1 ], l 1, l 2 [r 2 ], m 1, m 2 [r 3 ] Let J = y l1 m 1 ny l2 m 2 n y l1 m 2 ny l2 m 1 n :, l 1, l 2 [r 2 ], m 1, m 2 [r 3 ], n [r 4 ] Let deg x klm = deg y lmn = e l e m Define φ : K[z klmn : k [r 1 ],...] K[a kl, b km, c ln, d mn : k [r 1 ],...] by z klmn a kl b km c ln d mn Then I A J = ker φ.

7 Where s the Fiber Product? Suppose I, J are toric ideal I = I B, J = I C, B Z e 1, C Z e 2 B = {b i j : i [r], j [s]} C = {c i k : i [r], k [t]} If I B homogeneous with respect to A, then there is a linear map π 1 : Z e 1 Z d, π 1 (b i j ) = ai. If I C homogeneous with respect to A, then there is a linear map π 2 : Z e 2 Z d, π 2 (c i k ) = ai. Then I A J is a toric ideal, whose vector configuration is a fiber product B A C. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

8 Codimension-0 Toric Fiber Products Definition The codimension of a TFP is the codimension of the toric ideal I A. I A J has codimension 0 iff A is linearly independent. Proposition Suppose A linearly independent. Let If deg m = deg m then n = n and m = x i 1 j1 x in j n and m = x i 1 j 1 x i n j n. i 1 = i 1,..., i n = i n. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

9 Persistence of Normality and Generating Sets Theorem (Ohsugi, Michałlek, etc.) Let I K[x], and J K[y] be toric ideals, and A linearly independent. Then K[z]/(I A J) normal K[x]/I and K[y]/J normal. If f K[x], homogeneous w.r.t. A, write f = c u x i 1 ju1 x in j un. Lift to c u z i 1 ju1 k 1 z in j unk n. Theorem Let A linearly independent. Then I A J generated by 1 Lifts of generators of I and J 2 Obvious quadrics z i j 1 k 1 z i j 2 k 2 z i j 1 k 2 z i j 2 k 1 Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

10 GIT Quotients NA = {λ 1 a λ r a r : λ i N} R = K[x]/I is an NA graded ring. R = a NA R a S = K[y]/J is an NA graded ring. S = a NA S a Proposition Suppose A linearly independent. Then If K = K, then K[z]/(I A J) = a NA R a K S a. Spec(K[z]/(I A J)) = (Spec(K[x]/I) Spec(K[y]/J)) //T, where T acts on Spec(K[x]/I) Spec(K[y]/J) via t (x, y) = (t x, t 1 y). Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

11 Higher Codimension Toric Fiber Products Not a GIT quotient No hope for general construction of generators When is normality preserved? Proposition Let K = K. Suppose that I = i P i, and J = j Q j are primary decompositions. Then I A J = i,j (P i A Q j ) is a primary decomposition of I A J. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

12 Generators of Higher Codim TFPs Suppose I K[x], J K[y], are toric ideals. A = {a 1,..., a r }, Let K[w] := K[w 1,..., w r ]. Let ψ xw : K[x] K[w], x i j w i (similarly ψ yw ) Definition Let Ĩ = x u x v I : φ(x u x v ) = 0 J = y u y v J : φ(y u y v ) = 0 The ideal Ĩ Ã J is the associated codimension 0 TFP. Ĩ Ã J I A J Ĩ Ã J is usually related (via graph theory) in a nice way to I A J. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

13 Gluing Generators Let and f = x i 1 j1 x in j n x i 1 j x i n 1 j I n g = y i 1 k1 y in k n y i 1 k 1 y i n k n J that is, φ xw (f ) = φ yw (g). Then glue(f, g) = z i 1 j1 k 1 z in j nk n z i 1 j z i 1 k 1 n j n k I n A J Question Two natural classes of generators of I A J: when do they suffice? Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

14 Awesome Pictures that Explain Everything U Answer Gluing and the associated codim 0 tfp always suffice to generate I A J. But... how to find the right binomials to glue? Projecting a fiber onto ker Z A = 0 3 Projected and connected fibers need not be compatible Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

16 Markov Bases Definition Let A : Z n Z d be a linear transformation. A Markov Basis for A is a finite subset B ker Z (A) such that for all u, v N n with A(u) = A(v) there is a sequence b 1,..., b L B such that 1 u = v + L i=1 b i, and 2 v + l i=1 b i 0 for l = 1,..., L. Markov bases allow us to take random walks over the set of nonnegative integral points inside of polyhedra. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

17 Example: 2-way tables Let A : Z k 1 k 2 Z k 1+k 2 such that m m A(u) = u 1j,..., u k1 j; j=1 j=1 k u i1,..., i=1 k i=1 = vector of row and column sums of u u ik2 ker Z (A) = {u Z k 1 k 2 : row and columns sums of u are 0} Markov basis consists of the 2 ( )( k 1 k2 ) 2 2 moves like: Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

18 Fundamental Theorem of Markov Bases Definition Let A : Z n Z d. The toric ideal I A is the ideal p u p v : u, v N n, Au = Av K[p 1,..., p n ], where p u = p u 1 1 pu 2 2 pun n. Theorem (Diaconis-Sturmfels 1998) The set of moves B ker Z A is a Markov basis for A if and only if the set of binomials {p b+ p b : b B} generates I A p 21 p 33 p 23 p Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

19 More Complicated Marginals Let Γ = {F 1,..., F r }, each F i {1, 2,..., n}. Let d = (d 1,..., d n ) and u Z d 1 d n 0. Let A Γ,d (u) = (u F1,..., u Fr ), lower order marginals way margins of 4-way table: {1, 2}, {2, 3}, {3, 4}, {1, 4} -margins Question 4 3 How does the Markov basis of A Γ,d depend on Γ and d? How do the generators of I Γ,d depend on Γ and d? Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

20 Decomposing Along Face of Simplicial Complex Theorem (Dobra-Sullivant 2004, Hoşten-Sullivant 2002) Suppose that Γ = Γ 1 Γ 2, and Γ 1 Γ 2 is a face of both. Then and A is linearly independent. I Γ,d = I Γ1,d 1 A I Γ2,d 2 + = These complexes are called reducible in statistics. Allows for direct construction of Markov bases of reducible models. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

21 Decomposing Along Arbitrary Subcomplexes Theorem Suppose that Γ = Γ 1 Γ 2, and Γ 1 Γ 2 =. Then I Γ,d = I Γ1,d 1 A,d I Γ2,d 2, and, associated codim zero TFP is I Γ 2,d. + = If overlap is small, and associated codim zero TFP is simple, can construct generators of I Γ,d. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

22 Example Applications Theorem (Kral, Norin, Pragnac 2010) + = If d i = 2 for all i, then I Γ,d is generated in degree 4 if Γ is a series-parallel graph (no K 4 -minors). Theorem (4-cycle) 1 2 If d 2 = d 4 = 2, then I Γ,d generated in degree 2 and 4, for all d 1, d Theorem If Γ is the boundary of a bipyramid over a simplex of dimension d, and all d i = 2, I Γ,d generated in degrees 2 d+1, 2 d, 2.

23 Conditional Independence Ideals X = (X 1,..., X n ) is an n-dimensional discrete random vector. Probability Distribution Let (A, B, C), partition of [n]. p i1 i n = Prob(X 1 = i 1,..., X n = i n ) Conditional independence statement X A X B X C gives a binomial ideal in C[p i1 i n : i j [r j ]]. Example Let n = 4, r 1 = r 2 = r 3 = r 4 = 2, X 1 X 3 (X 2, X 4 ), gives CI ideal I X1 X 3 (X 2,X 4 ) = p 1111 p 2121 p 1121 p 2111, p 1112 p 2122 p 1122 p 2112, p 1211 p 2221 p 1221 p 2211, p 1212 p 2222 p 1222 p 2212 Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

24 Global Conditional Independence Ideals G undirected graph, vertex set [n] CI statement X A X B X C holds for G if C separates A from B in G. Let Global(G) set of all CI statements holding for G. I Global(G) = X A X B X C Global(G) I XA X B X C Example (4-cycle) 1 2 I Global(G) = I X1 X 3 (X 2,X 4 ) + I X 2 X 4 (X 1,X 3 ) 4 3 Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26

25 Clique Sums Proposition If G = G 1 #G 2 is a clique sum, then and A is linearly independent. Example I Global(G) = I Global(G1 ) A I Global(G2 ) + = For r i = 2 for all i, I Global(G) has 9 9 = 81 prime components. Conjecture For all graphs G, I Global(G) is a radical ideal. All nontoric components are related to marginal positivity. Seth Sullivant (NCSU) Toric Fiber Products June 8, / 26
