Asymptotic Syzygies of Weighted Projective Spaces

TL;DR
The paper extends the Ein–Erman–Lazarsfeld monomial syzygy framework to Veronese embeddings of the weighted projective space $\mathbb{P}(1^n,2)$, establishing explicit nonvanishing ranges for Betti entries in the asymptotic regime $d\gg0$. By refining the EEL method to accommodate nonstandard grading, using Artinian reduction and careful monomial tracking, it derives left and right endpoints $F_q(d)$ and $B_q(d)$ that bound where $\beta_{i,i+q}$ can be nonzero for odd and even $d$. It also proves that, in the odd case, the asymptotic density $\rho_q(M)$ of nonzero entries approaches 1 within the allowed rows, paralleling the original Ein–Lazarsfeld phenomenon for standard projective spaces. Regularity computations underpin the row-bounding strategy, showing how parity influences the number of Betti-table rows and enabling a row-overlap argument to ensure continuity of nonzero blocks. The work highlights both the tractability of $\mathbb{P}(1^n,2)$ and the complexities that arise for more general weighted spaces, outlining concrete challenges for future extensions.
Abstract
By adapting methods of Ein-Erman-Lazarsfeld, we prove an analogue of the Ein-Lazarsfeld result on asymptotic syzygies for Veronese embeddings, in the setting of weighted projective spaces of the form $\mathbb{P}(1^n,2)$.
