Empty Simplices of Polytopes and Graded Betti Numbers
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. The conjecture of Kalai, Kleinschmidt, and Lee on the number of empty simplices of a simplicial polytope is established by relating it to the first graded Betti numbers of the polytope. The proof allows us to derive explicit optimal bounds on the number of empty simplices of any given dimension. As a key result, we prove optimal bounds for the graded Betti numbers of any standard graded K-algebra in terms of its Hilbert function.

Tight Combinatorial Manifolds and Graded Betti Numbers
In this paper, we study the conjecture of Kühnel and Lutz, who state that a combinatorial triangulation of the product of two spheres S×S with j ≥ i is tight if and only if it has exactly i+2j+4 vertices. To approach this conjecture, we use graded Betti numbers of Stanley–Reisner rings. By using recent results on graded Betti numbers, we prove that the only if part of the conjecture holds when ...
متن کاملOn a special class of Stanley-Reisner ideals
For an $n$-gon with vertices at points $1,2,cdots,n$, the Betti numbers of its suspension, the simplicial complex that involves two more vertices $n+1$ and $n+2$, is known. In this paper, with a constructive and simple proof, wegeneralize this result to find the minimal free resolution and Betti numbers of the $S$-module $S/I$ where $S=K[x_{1},cdots, x_{n}]$ and $I$ is the associated ideal to ...
متن کاملReduced Arithmetically Gorenstein Schemes and Simplicial Polytopes with Maximal Betti Numbers
An SI-sequence is a finite sequence of positive integers which is symmetric, unimodal and satisfies a certain growth condition. These are known to correspond precisely to the possible Hilbert functions of Artinian Gorenstein algebras with the Weak Lefschetz Property, a property shared by most Artinian Gorenstein algebras. Starting with an arbitrary SI-sequence, we construct a reduced, arithmeti...
متن کامل17 Face Numbers of Polytopes and Complexes
Geometric objects are often put together from simple pieces according to certain combinatorial rules. As such, they can be described as complexes with their constituent cells, which are usually polytopes and often simplices. Many constraints of a combinatorial and topological nature govern the incidence structure of cell complexes and are therefore relevant in the analysis of geometric objects....
متن کاملShifting Operations and Graded Betti Numbers
The behaviour of graded Betti numbers under exterior and symmetric algebraic shifting is studied. It is shown that the extremal Betti numbers are stable under these operations. Moreover, the possible sequences of super extremal Betti numbers for a graded ideal with given Hilbert function are characterized. Finally it is shown that over a field of characteristic 0, the graded Betti numbers of a ...
