Title: Gotzmann's regularity and persistence theorem - II
Abstract: Gotzmann's regularity theorem establishes a bound on
Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity using a binomial representation (the
Macaulay representation) of the Hilbert polynomial of a standard graded
algebra. Gotzmann's persistence theorem shows that once the Hilbert
function of a homogeneous ideal achieves minimal growth then it grows
minimally for ever. We start with a proof of Eisenbud-Goto's theorem to
establish regularity in terms of graded Betti numbers. Then we discuss
Gotzmann's theorems in the language of commutative algebra.
