Double homotopy Cohen-Macaulayness for the poset of injective words and the classical NC-partition lattice

چکیده
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 homotopy Cohen-Macaulay posets, which can be considered as an extension of the classical poset fiber theorem for homotopy Cohen-Macaulay posets. Résumé. Dans cet article, nous étudions certaines propriétés topologiques du poset des mots injectifs et du treillis des partitions non-croisées classiques. Plus précisément, nous montrons qu’après suppression des plus petit et plus grand élément (s’ils existent), ces posets sont doublement Cohen-Macaulay. C’est une extension du fait bien connu que ces deux posets sont épluchables (“shellable”). Ces deux résultats reposent sur un nouveau théorème poset-fibre pour les posets doublement homotopiquement Cohen-Macaulay, que l’on peut voir comme extension du théorème poset-fibre classique pour les posets homotopiquement Cohen-Macaulay.

Gorenstein Injective Dimensions and Cohen-Macaulayness
Let (R,m) be a commutative noetherian local ring. In this paper we investigate the existence of a finitely generated R-module of finite Gorenstein dimension when R is Cohen-Macaulay. We study the Gorenstein injective dimension of local cohomology of complexes and next we show that if R is a non-Artinian Cohen-Macaulay ring, which does not have the minimal multiplicity, then R has a finite gener...
متن کاملOn the Cohen-Macaulay connectivity of supersolvable lattices and the homotopy type of posets
It is a well known fact that a supersolvable lattice is ELoshellable. Hence a supersolvable lattice (resp., its Stanley-Reisner ring) is Cohen-Macaulay. We prove that if L is a supersolvable lattice such that all intervals have non-vanishing Mt~bius number, then for an arbitrary element x e L the poser L {x} is also Cohen-Macaulay. Posets with this property are called 2-Cohen-Macaulay posets. I...
متن کاملHomotopy of Non - Modular Partitionsand the Whitehouse
We present a class of subposets of the partition lattice n with the following property: The order complex is homotopy equivalent to the order complex of n?1 ; and the Sn-module structure of the homology coincides with a recently discovered lifting of the S n?1-action on the homology of n?1 : This is the Whitehouse representation on Robinson's space of fully-grown trees, and has also appeared in...
متن کاملThe absolute order on the hyperoctahedral group
The absolute order on the hyperoctahedral group Bn is investigated. Using a poset fiber theorem, it is proved that the order ideal of this poset generated by the Coxeter elements is homotopy Cohen–Macaulay. This method results in a new proof of Cohen–Macaulayness of the absolute order on the symmetric group. Moreover, it is shown that every closed interval in the absolute order on Bn is shellab...
متن کاملOn Sequentially Cohen-macaulay Complexes and Posets
The classes of sequentially Cohen-Macaulay and sequentially homotopy Cohen-Macaulay complexes and posets are studied. First, some different versions of the definitions are discussed and the homotopy type is determined. Second, it is shown how various constructions, such as join, product and rank-selection preserve these properties. Third, a characterization of sequential Cohen-Macaulayness for ...
