Polytopal complexes: maps, chain complexes and... necklaces
The notion of polytopal map between two polytopal complexes is defined. Surprisingly, this definition is quite simple and extends naturally those of simplicial and cubical maps. It is then possible to define an induced chain map between the associated chain complexes. Finally, we use this new tool to give the first combinatorial proof of the splitting necklace theorem of Alon. The paper ends wi...
متن کاملShellable complexes from multicomplexes
Suppose a group G acts properly on a simplicial complex Γ . Let l be the number of G-invariant vertices, and p1,p2, . . . , pm be the sizes of the G-orbits having size greater than 1. Then Γ must be a subcomplex of Λ = Δl−1 ∗ ∂Δp1−1 ∗ · · · ∗ ∂Δpm−1. A result of Novik gives necessary conditions on the face numbers of Cohen–Macaulay subcomplexes of Λ. We show that these conditions are also suffi...
متن کاملShellable Complexes and Topology of Diagonal Arrangements
We prove that if a simplicial complex ∆ is shellable, then the intersection lattice L∆ for the corresponding diagonal arrangement A∆ is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres. Furthermore, we describe precisely the spheres in the wedge, based on the data of shelling. Also, we give some examples of diagonal arrangements A where the complement MA is K(π, 1), coming from rank 3 matroids.
متن کاملPolygon Dissections Complexes Are Shellable
All dissections of a convex (mn + 2)-gons into (m + 2)-gons are facets of a simplicial complex. This complex is introduced by S. Fomin and A.V. Zelevinsky in [7]. We reprove the result of E. Tzanaki about shellability of such complex by finding a concrete shelling order. Also, we use this shelling order to find a combinatorial interpretation of h-vector and to describe the generating facets of ...
متن کاملShellable Nonpure Complexes and Posets. I
The concept of shellability of complexes is generalized by deleting the requirement of purity (i.e., that all maximal faces have the same dimension). The usefulness of this level of generality was suggested by certain examples coming from the theory of subspace arrangements. We develop several of the basic properties of the concept of nonpure shellability. Doubly indexed f -vectors and h-vector...
