Ideals with linear quotients

We study basic properties of monomial ideals with linear quotients. It is shown that if the monomial ideal I has linear quotients, then the squarefree part of I and each component of I as well as m I have linear quotients, where m is the graded maximal ideal of the polynomial ring. As an analogy to the Rearrangement Lemma of Bjِrner and Wachs we also show that for a monomial ideal with linear quotients the admissible order of the generators can be chosen degree increasingly.
