ON THE h-VECTORS OF COHEN-MACAULAY FLAG COMPLEXES

چکیده
Starting from an unpublished conjecture of Kalai and from a conjecture of Eisenbud, Green and Harris, we study several problems relating h-vectors of Cohen-Macaulay, flag simplicial complexes and face vectors of simplicial complexes.

Flag f-Vectors of Three-Colored Complexes
The flag f-vectors of three-colored complexes are characterized. This also characterizes the flag h-vectors of balanced Cohen-Macaulay complexes of dimension two, as well as the flag h-vectors of balanced shellable complexes of dimension two.
متن کاملOn a Conjecture by Kalai
We show that monomial ideals generated in degree two satisfy a conjecture by Eisenbud, Green and Harris. In particular we give a partial answer to a conjecture of Kalai by proving that h-vectors of flag Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes are h-vectors of Cohen-Macaulay balanced simplicial complexes.
متن کاملConvex-Ear Decompositions and the Flag h-Vector
We prove a theorem allowing us to find convex-ear decompositions for rankselected subposets of posets that are unions of Boolean sublattices in a coherent fashion. We then apply this theorem to geometric lattices and face posets of shellable complexes, obtaining new inequalities for their h-vectors. Finally, we use the latter decomposition to give a new interpretation to inequalities satisfied ...
متن کاملSeveral Convex-Ear Decompositions
In this paper we give convex-ear decompositions for the order complexes of several classes of posets, namely supersolvable lattices with non-zero Möbius functions and rank-selected subposets of such lattices, rank-selected geometric lattices, and rank-selected face posets of shellable complexes which do not include the top rank. These decompositions give us many new inequalities for the h-vecto...
متن کاملCohen-Macaulay-ness in codimension for simplicial complexes and expansion functor
In this paper we show that expansion of a Buchsbaum simplicial complex is $CM_t$, for an optimal integer $tgeq 1$. Also, by imposing extra assumptions on a $CM_t$ simplicial complex, we provethat it can be obtained from a Buchsbaum complex.
