Abstract

Let S=K[x1,…,xn], where K is a field, and ti(S/I) denotes the maximal shift in the minimal graded free S-resolution of the graded algebra S/I at degree i, where I is an edge ideal. In this paper, we prove that if tb(S/I)≥⌈3b2⌉ for some b≥0, then the subadditivity condition ta+b(S/I)≤ta(S/I)+tb(S/I) holds for all a≥0. In addition, we prove that ta+4(S/I)≤ta(S/I)+t4(S/I) for all a≥0 (the case b=0,1,2,3 is known). We conclude that if the projective dimension of S/I is at most 9, then I satisfies the subadditivity condition.
