One-point suspensions and wreath products of polytopes and spheres
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is known that the suspension of a simplicial complex can be realized with only one additional point. Suitable iterations of this construction generate highly symmetric simplicial complexes with various interesting combinatorial and topological properties. In particular, infinitely many non-PL spheres as well as contractible simplicial complexes with a vertex-transitive group of automorphisms can be obtained in this way.

Restricted cascade and wreath products of fuzzy finite switchboard state machines
A finite switchboard state machine is a specialized finite state machine. It is built by binding the concepts of switching state machines and commutative state machines. The main purpose of this paper is to give a specific algorithm for fuzzy finite switchboard state machine and also, investigates the concepts of switching relation, covering, restricted cascade products and wreath products of f...
متن کاملPolyhedral Surfaces in Wedge Products
We introduce the wedge product of two polytopes. The wedge product is described in terms of inequality systems, in terms of vertex coordinates as well as purely combinatorially, from the corresponding data of its constituents. The wedge product construction can be described as an iterated “subdirect product” as introduced by McMullen (1976); it is dual to the “wreath product” construction of Jo...
متن کاملNew polytopes from products
We construct a new 2-parameter family Emn, m, n ≥ 3, of self-dual 2-simple and 2-simplicial 4-polytopes, with flexible geometric realisations. E44 is the 24-cell. For large m, n the f -vectors have “fatness” close to 6. The Et-construction of Paffenholz and Ziegler applied to products of polygons yields cellular spheres with the combinatorial structure of Emn. Here we prove polytopality of thes...
متن کاملCounting faces of cubical spheres modulo two
Several recent papers have addressed the problem of characterizing the f -vectors of cubical polytopes. This is largely motivated by the complete characterization of the f -vectors of simplicial polytopes given by Stanley, Billera, and Lee in 1980 [19] [4]. Along these lines Blind and Blind [5] have shown that unlike in the simplicial case, there are parity restrictions on the f -vectors of cub...
متن کاملNew Bounds on the Elastic Moduli of Suspensions of Spheres
We derive rigorous three-point upper and lower bounds on the eeective bulk and shear moduli of a two-phase material composed of equisized spheres randomly distributed throughout a matrix. Our approach is analogous to previously derived three-point cluster bounds on the eeective conductivity of suspensions of spheres. Our bounds on the eeective elastic moduli are then compared to other known thr...
