Abstract

The Betti-numbers of a graded ideal I in a polynomial ring and the Betti-numbers of its generic initial ideal Gin(I) are compared. In characteristic zero it is shown that if these Betti-numbers coincide in some homological degree, then they coincide in all higher homological degrees. We also compare the Betti-numbers of componentwise linear ideals which are contained in each other and have the same Hilbert polynomial.
