We find some general lower bounds of the sum of certain families of multigraded Betti numbers of any simplicial complex with a vertex coloring.
Let $\Delta$ be a stable simplicial complex on $n$ vertexes. Over an arbitrary base field $K$, the symmetric algebraic shifted complex $\Delta^s$ of $\Delta$ is defined. It is proved that the Betti numbers of the Stanley-Reisner ideals in…
In this paper, we study the multigraded Betti numbers of Veronese embeddings of projective spaces. Due to Hochster's formula, we interpret these multigraded Betti numbers in terms of the homology of certain simplicial complexes. By…
We determine which simplicial complexes have the maximum or minimum sum of Betti numbers and sum of bigraded Betti numbers with a given number of vertices in each dimension.
We give a bound for the Betti numbers of the Stanley-Reisner ring of a stellar subdivision of a Gorenstein* simplicial complex by applying unprojection theory. From this we derive a bound for the Betti numbers of iterated stellar…
We prove that multigraded Betti numbers of a simplicial forest are always either 0 or 1. Moreover a nonzero multidegree appears exactly at one homological degree in the resolution. Our work generalizes work of Bouchat on edge ideals of…
We study the problem of maximizing Betti numbers of simplicial complexes. We prove an upper bound of 1.32^n for the sum of Betti numbers of any n-vertex flag complex and 1.25^n for the independence complex of a triangle-free graph. These…
We give a sufficient condition for a monomial ideal to have a nonzero Betti number in each multidegree. In the case of facet ideals of simplicial forests, this condition becomes a necessary one and it allows us to characterize Betti…
We study simplicial complexes with a given number of vertices whose Stanley-Reisner ring has the minimal possible Betti numbers. We find that these simplicial complexes have very special combinatorial and topological structures. For…
We present two new problems on lower bounds for resolution Betti numbers of monomial ideals generated in a fixed degree. The first concerns any such ideal and bounds the total Betti numbers, while the second concerns ideals that are…
In this paper, we prove that the $L^2$ Betti numbers of an amenable covering space can be approximated by the average Betti numbers of a regular exhaustion, proving a conjecture that we made in an earlier paper. We also prove that an…
We prove graded bounds on the individual Betti numbers of affine and projective complex varieties. In particular, we give for each $p,d,r$, explicit bounds on the $p$-th Betti numbers of affine and projective subvarieties of $\mathrm{C}^k$,…
We study the extremal Betti numbers of the class of $t$--spread strongly stable ideals. More precisely, we determine the maximal number of admissible extremal Betti numbers for such ideals, and thereby we generalize the known results for…
Let X be a k-dimensional simplicial complex such that the (k-j-2)-dimensional homology of the links of all j-dimensional simplices in X vanishes. An upper bound is given on the (k-1)-th Betti number of X. Examples based on sum complexes…
We prove new bounds on the Betti numbers of real varieties and semi-algebraic sets that have a more refined dependence on the degrees of the polynomials defining them than results known before. Our method also unifies several different…
We give a characterization of symplectic quadratic Lie algebras that their Lie algebra of inner derivations has an invertible derivation. A family of symplectic quadratic Lie algebras is introduced to illustrate this situation. Finally, we…
A Betti splitting $I=J+K$ of a monomial ideal $I$ ensures the recovery of the graded Betti numbers of $I$ starting from those of $J,K$ and $J \cap K$. In this paper, we introduce this condition for simplicial complexes, and, by using…
We consider the multiparameter random simplicial complex on a vertex set $\{ 1,\dots,n \}$, which is parameterized by multiple connectivity probabilities. Our key results concern the topology of this complex of dimensions higher than the…
For a simplicial complex $\Delta$, the graded Betti number $\beta_{i,j}(k[\Delta])$ of the Stanley-Reisner ring $k[\Delta]$ over a field $k$ has a combinatorial interpretation due to Hochster. Terai and Hibi showed that if $\Delta$ is the…
We define unimodular measures on the space of rooted simplicial complexes and associate to each measure a chain complex and a trace function. As a consequence, we can define $\ell^2$-Betti numbers of unimodular random rooted simplicial…
