In this paper, we study Lefschetz properties of Artinian reductions of Stanley–Reisner rings of balanced simplicial 3-polytopes. A (d − 1)-dimensional simplicial complex is said to be balanced if its graph is d-colorable. If a simplicial complex is balanced, then its Stanley–Reisner ring has a special system of parameters induced by the coloring. We prove that the Artinian reduction of the Stan...
