Title
On the Cohen-Macaulay property for quadratic tangent cones
Abstract
Let H be an n-generated numerical semigroup such that its tangent cone gr(m) K[H] is defined by quadratic relations. We show that if n < 5 then gr(m) K[H] is Cohen-Macaulay, and for n = 5 we explicitly describe the semigroups H such that gr(m) K[H] is not Cohen-Macaulay. As an application we show that if the field K is algebraically closed and of characteristic different from two, and n <= 5 then gr(m) K[H] is Koszul if and only if (possibly after a change of coordinates) its defining ideal has a quadratic Grobner basis.
