On the Möbius function of a lower Eulerian Cohen–Macaulay poset
نویسنده
چکیده
A certain inequality is shown to hold for the values of the Möbius function of the poset obtained by attaching a maximum element to a lower Eulerian Cohen– Macaulay poset. In two important special cases, this inequality provides partial results supporting Stanley’s nonnegativity conjecture for the toric h-vector of a lower Eulerian Cohen–Macaulay meet-semilattice and Adin’s nonnegativity conjecture for the cubical h-vector of a Cohen–Macaulay cubical complex.

Dumont's Statistic on Words
We define Dumont’s statistic on the symmetric group Sn to be the function dmc: Sn → N which maps a permutation σ to the number of distinct nonzero letters in code(σ). Dumont showed that this statistic is Eulerian. Naturally extending Dumont’s statistic to the rearrangement classes of arbitrary words, we create a generalized statistic which is again Eulerian. As a consequence, we show that for e...
متن کاملThe Bruhat Order on the Involutions of the Symmetric Group
In this paper we study the partially ordered set of the involutions of the symmetric group Sn with the order induced by the Bruhat order of Sn . We prove that this is a graded poset, with rank function given by the average of the number of inversions and the number of excedances, and that it is lexicographically shellable, hence Cohen-Macaulay, and Eulerian.
متن کاملResults on Hilbert coefficients of a Cohen-Macaulay module
Let $(R,m)$ be a commutative Noetherian local ring, $M$ a finitely generated $R$-module of dimension $d$, and let $I$ be an ideal of definition for $M$. In this paper, we extend cite[Corollary 10(4)]{P} and also we show that if $M$ is a Cohen-Macaulay $R$-module and $d=2$, then $lambda(frac{widetilde{I^nM}}{Jwidetilde{I^{n-1}M}})$ does not depend on $J$ for all $ngeq 1$, where $J$ is a minimal ...
متن کاملOn the discrete counterparts of Cohen-Macaulay algebras with straightening laws
We study properties of a poset generating a Cohen-Macaulay algebra with straightening laws (ASL for short). We show that if a poset P generates a Cohen-Macaulay ASL, then P is pure and, if P is moreover Buchsbaum, then P is Cohen-Macaulay. Some results concerning a Rees algebra of an ASL defined by a straightening closed ideal are also established. And it is shown that if P is a Cohen-Macaulay ...
متن کاملDouble homotopy Cohen-Macaulayness for the poset of injective words and the classical NC-partition lattice
In this paper we study topological properties of the poset of injective words and the lattice of classical non-crossing partitions. Specifically, it is shown that after the removal of the bottom and top elements (if existent) these posets are doubly Cohen-Macaulay. This extends the well-known result that those posets are shellable. Both results rely on a new poset fiber theorem, for doubly homo...
