Explicit Stillman bounds for all degrees

Abstract: In 2016 Ananyan and Hochster proved Stillman's conjecture by showing the existence of a uniform upper bound for the projective dimension of all homogeneous ideals, in polynomial rings over a field, generated by n forms of degree at most d. Explicit values of the bounds for forms of degrees 5 and higher are not yet known. The main result of this article is the construction of explicit such bounds, for all degrees d, which behave like power towers of height d^3/6+11d/6-4. This is done by establishing a bound D(k,d), which controls the number of generators of a minimal prime over an ideal of a regular sequence of k or fewer forms of degree d, and supplementing it into Ananyan and Hochster's proof in order to obtain a recurrence relation.
