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 کاملPolytopal complexes realizing products of graphs
When is the Cartesian product of two graphs the graph of a polytope, of a cellular sphere, or even of a combinatorial manifold? In this note, we determine all 3-polytopal complexes whose graph is the Cartesian product of a 3-cycle by a Petersen graph. Through this specific example, we showcase certain techniques which seem relevant to enumerate all polytopal complexes realizing a given product....
متن کاملQuantum Differentiation and Chain Maps of Bimodule Complexes
We consider a finite group acting on a vector space and the corresponding skew group algebra generated by the group and the symmetric algebra of the space. This skew group algebra illuminates the resulting orbifold and serves as a replacement for the ring of invariant polynomials, especially in the eyes of cohomology. One analyzes the Hochschild cohomology of the skew group algebra using isomor...
متن کاملSecond symmetric powers of chain complexes
We investigate Buchbaum and Eisenbud's construction of the second symmetric power $s_R(X)$ of a chain complex $X$ of modules over a commutative ring $R$. We state and prove a number of results from the folklore of the subject for which we know of no good direct references. We also provide several explicit computations and examples. We use this construction to prove the following vers...
متن کاملEhrhart f*-Coefficients of Polytopal Complexes are Non-negative Integers
The Ehrhart polynomial LP of an integral polytope P counts the number of integer points in integral dilates of P . Ehrhart polynomials of polytopes are often described in terms of their Ehrhart h∗-vector (aka Ehrhart δ-vector), which is the vector of coefficients of LP with respect to a certain binomial basis and which coincides with the h-vector of a regular unimodular triangulation of P (if o...
