In this paper, we are mainly interested in two notions related to syzygies: one is the property $\\mathbf{N}_{d,p}~(d\\ge 2, ~p\\geq 1)$, which means that $X$ is $d$-regular up to $p$-th step in the minimal free resolution and the other is a new notion $\\mathrm{ND}(l)$ which generalizes the classical \"being nondegenerate\" to the condition that requires a general finite linear section not to be contained in any hypersurface of degree $l$. First, we introduce condition $\\mathrm{ND}(l)$ and consider examples and basic properties deduced from the notion. Next we prove sharp upper bounds on the graded Betti numbers of the first non-trivial strand of syzygies, which generalize results in the quadratic case to higher degree case, and provide characterizations for the extremal cases. Further, after regarding some consequences of property $\\mathbf{N}_{d,p}$, we characterize the resolution of $X$ to be $d$-linear arithemetically Cohen-Macaulay as having property $\\mathbf{N}_{d,e}$ and condition $\\mathrm{ND}(d-1)$ at the same time. From this result, we obtain a syzygetic rigidity theorem which suggests a natural generalization of syzygetic rigidity on $2$-regularity due to Eisenbud-Green-Hulek-Popescu to a general $d$-regularity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-11-13T06:52:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14N05", "13D02", "51N35" ], "keywords": [ "first non-trivial strand", "projective schemes", "general finite linear section", "syzygetic rigidity theorem", "sharp upper bounds" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
