Let $I_G$ be the toric ideal of a graph $G$. We characterize in graph theoretical terms the primitive, the minimal, the indispensable and the fundamental binomials of the toric ideal $I_G$.

Our purpose is to study the family of simple undirected graphs whose toric ideal is a complete intersection from both an algorithmic and a combinatorial point of view. We obtain a polynomial time algorithm that, given a graph $G$, checks whether its toric ideal $P_G$ is a complete intersection or not. Whenever $P_G$ is a complete intersection, the algorithm also returns a minimal set of generators of $P_G$. Moreover, we prove that if $G$ is a connected graph and $P_G$ is a complete intersection, then there exist two induced subgraphs $R$ and $C$ of $G$ such that the vertex set $V(G)$ of $G$ is the disjoint union of $V(R)$ and $V(C)$, where $R$ is a bipartite ring graph and $C$ is either the empty graph, an odd primitive cycle, or consists of two odd primitive cycles properly connected. Finally, if $R$ is $2$-connected and $C$ is connected, we list the families of graphs whose toric ideals are complete intersection.
Let $A={{bf a}_1,...,{bf a}_m} subset mathbb{Z}^n$ be a vector configuration and $I_A subset K[x_1,...,x_m]$ its corresponding toric ideal. The paper consists of two parts. In the first part we completely determine the number of different minimal systems of binomial generators of $I_A$. We also prove that generic toric ideals are generated by indispensable binomials. In the second part we associate to $A$ a simplicial complex $Delta _{ind(A)}$. We show that the vertices of $Delta_{ind(A)}$ correspond to the indispensable monomials of the toric ideal $I_A$, while one dimensional facets of $Delta_{ind(A)}$ with minimal binomial $A$-degree correspond to the indispensable binomials of $I_{A}$.
To any toric ideal $I_A$, encoded by an integer matrix $A$, we associate a matroid structure called {em the bouquet graph} of $A$ and introduce another toric ideal called {em the bouquet ideal} of $A$. We show how these objects capture the essential combinatorial and algebraic information about $I_A$. Passing from the toric ideal to its bouquet ideal reveals a structure that allows us to classify several cases. For example, on the one end of the spectrum, there are ideals that we call {em stable}, for which bouquets capture the complexity of various generating sets as well as the minimal free resolution. On the other end of the spectrum lie toric ideals whose various bases (e.g., minimal generating sets, Grobner, Graver bases) coincide. Apart from allowing for classification-type results, bouquets provide a new way to construct families of examples of toric ideals with various interesting properties, such as robustness, genericity, and unimodularity. The new bouquet framework can be used to provide a characterization of toric ideals whose Graver basis, the universal Grobner basis, any reduced Grobner basis and any minimal generating set coincide.
Relying on the combinatorial classification of toric ideals using their bouquet structure, we focus on toric ideals of hypergraphs and study how they relate to general toric ideals. We show that hypergraphs exhibit a surprisingly general behavior: the toric ideal associated to any general matrix can be encoded by that of a $0/1$ matrix, while preserving the essential combinatorics of the original ideal. We provide two universality results about the unboundedness of degrees of various generating sets: minimal, Graver, universal Grobner bases, and indispensable binomials. Finally, we provide a polarization-type operation for arbitrary positively graded toric ideals, which preserves all the combinatorial signatures and the homological properties of the original toric ideal.
We characterize the graphs $G$ for which their toric ideals $I_G$ are complete intersections. In particular we prove that for a connected graph $G$ such that $I_G$ is complete intersection all of its blocks are bipartite except of at most two. We prove that toric ideals of graphs which are complete intersections are circuit ideals. The generators of the toric ideal correspond to even cycles of $G$ except of at most one generator, which corresponds to two edge disjoint odd cycles joint at a vertex or with a path. We prove that the blocks of the graph satisfy the odd cycle condition. Finally we characterize all complete intersection toric ideals of graphs which are normal.
