In this paper, we give a new and efficient algebraic criterion for the pure as well as non-pure shellability of simplicial complex $\Delta$ over [n]. We also give an algebraic characterization of a leaf in a simplicial complex (defined in…

A simplicial complex $\Delta$ is a virtually Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complex if its associated Stanley-Reisner ring $S$ has a virtual resolution, as defined by Berkesch, Erman, and Smith, of length ${\rm codim}(S)$. We provide a…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a simplicial complex to be approximately Cohen-Macaulay. Namely it is approximately Cohen-Macaulay if and only if the ideal associated to its Alexander dual is componentwise linear and…

The Golodness of a simplicial complex is defined algebraically in terms of the Stanley-Reisner ring, and it has been a long-standing problem to find its combinatorial characterization. The tightness of a simplicial complex is a…

Associated to a simple undirected graph G is a simplicial complex whose faces correspond to the independent sets of G. We call a graph G shellable if this simplicial complex is a shellable simplicial complex in the non-pure sense of…

In this article we investigate the shellability of the flag simplicial complexes attached to non-simple and thin polyominoes. As a consequence, we obtain the Cohen-Macaulayness and a combinatorial interepetation of the $h$-polynomial of the…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a clutter with a perfect matching $e_1,...,e_g$ of K\"onig type and let $\Delta_\mathcal{C}$ be the Stanley-Reisner complex of the edge ideal of $\mathcal{C}$. If all c-minors of $\mathcal{C}$ have a free vertex and…

Let $\D$ be a $(d-1)$-dimensional pure $f$-simplicial complex over vertex set $[n]$. In this paper, it is proved that $n=2d$ holds true if $\D$ is minimal Cohen-Macaulay. It is also indicated that the recent work of \cite{Dao2020} implies…

We show that the Golod property of a Stanley-Reisner ring can depend on the characteristic of the base field. More precisely, for every finite set $T$ of prime numbers we construct simplicial complexes $\Delta$ and $\Gamma$, such that…

Imposing a strong condition on the linear order of shellable complexes, we introduce strong shellability. Basic properties, including the existence of dimension-decreasing strong shelling orders, are developed with respect to nonpure…

The polyhedral product is a space constructed from a simplicial complex and a collection of pairs of spaces, which is connected with the Stanley Reisner ring of the simplicial complex via cohomology. Generalizing the previous work Grbic and…

Via the BGG-correspondence a simplicial complex D on [n] is transformed into a complex of coherent sheaves L(D) on the projective space n-1-space. In general we compute the support of each of its cohomology sheaves. When the Alexander dual…

In this paper, we give a new algebraic criterion for the {\em shellability} of (non-pure) simplicial complex $\Delta$ over $[n]$, shellable in the sense of Bj\"orner and Wachs \cite{BW}. We show that the spanning simplicial complex of…

One of the main open questions in liaison theory is whether every homogeneous Cohen-Macaulay ideal in a polynomial ring is glicci, i.e. if it is in the G-liaison class of a complete intersection. We give an affirmative answer to this…

We introduce a new family of pure simplicial complexes, called the $r$-co-connected complex of $G$ with respect to $A$, $\Sigma_r(A,G)$, where $r\geq 1$ is a natural number, $G$ is a simple graph, and $A$ is a subset of vertices.…

We prove that for a simplicial complex $K$ whose Taylor resolution for the Stanley-Reisner ring is minimal, the following four conditions are equivalent: (1) $K$ satisfies the strong gcd-condition; (2) $K$ is Golod; (3) the moment-angle…

Let $H$ be a simple undirected graph and $G=\mathrm{L}(H)$ be its line graph. Assume that $\Delta(G)$ denotes the clique complex of $G$. We show that $\Delta(G)$ is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay if and only if it is shellable if and only if…

We prove that certain polyhedral products, including the moment-angle complexes, for the Alexander duals of shellable and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay complexes decompose into wedges of explicitly given suspension spaces, which implies the…

For a property $\cal P$ of simplicial complexes, a simplicial complex $\Gamma$ is an obstruction to $\cal P$ if $\Gamma$ itself does not satisfy $\cal P$ but all of its proper restrictions satisfy $\cal P$. In this paper, we determine all…

In this paper, we study simplicial complexes whose Stanley-Reisner rings are almost Gorenstein and have $a$-invariant zero. We call such a simplicial complex an almost Gorenstein* simplicial complex. To study the almost Gorenstein*…
