On minimal free resolutions of sub-permanents and other ideals arising in complexity theory

Klim Efremenko, J. M. Landsberg, Hal Schenck, Jerzy Weyman

We compute the linear strand of the minimal free resolution of the ideal generated by k×k sub-permanents of an n×n generic matrix and of the ideal generated by square-free monomials of degree k. The latter calculation gives the full minimal free resolution by [1]. Our motivation is to lay groundwork for the use of commutative algebra in algebraic complexity theory. We also compute several Hilbert functions relevant for complexity theory.
