On the Hilbert depth of monomial ideals

(20 pages)

Abstract. Let S=K[x1,...,xn] be the ring of polynomials over a field K. Given two monomial ideals 0 ⊂ IJS, we present a new method to compute the Hilbert depth of J/I. As an application, we show that if uS is a monomial regular of S/I, then qdepth(S/I) ≥ qdepth(S/(I,u)) ≥ qdepth(S/I)-1.

Also, we reprove the formula for the Hilbert depth of a squarefree Veronese ideal.
