Abstract

Given a one-dimensional semigroup ring R=k[[S]], in this article we study the behaviour of the Hilbert function HR. By means of the notion of support of the elements in S, for some classes of semigroup rings we give conditions on the generators of S in order to have decreasing HR. When the embedding dimension v and the multiplicity e verify v+3≤e≤v+4, the decrease of HRgives an explicit description of the Apéry set of S. In particular for e=v+3, we prove that HRis non-decreasing if e≤12 and we classify the semigroups with e=13 and HRdecreasing. Finally we deduce that HRis non-decreasing for every Gorenstein semigroup ring with e≤v+4. This fact is not true in general: through numerical duplication and some of the above results another recent paper shows the existence of infinitely many one-dimensional Gorenstein rings with decreasing Hilbert function.
