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…

The Upper Bound Theorem for convex polytopes implies that the $p$-th Betti number of the \v{C}ech complex of any set of $N$ points in $\mathbb R^d$ and any radius satisfies $\beta_{p} = O(N^{m})$, with $m = \min \{ p+1, \lceil d/2 \rceil…

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…

There have been several recent articles studying homology of various types of random simplicial complexes. Several theorems have concerned thresholds for vanishing of homology, and in some cases expectations of the Betti numbers. However…

Suppose X is any finite complex with vanishing L^2 Betti number. We prove upper bounds on the Betti numbers for regular coverings of X, sublinear in the order of covering. The bounds are sensitive to the Novikov-Shubin invariants of X, and…

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…

Given integers $r$ and $b$ with $1 \leq b \leq r$, a finite simple connected graph $G$ for which ${\rm reg}(S/I(G)) = r$ and the number of extremal Betti numbers of $S/I(G)$ is equal to $b$ will be constructed.

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 compute one of the distinguished extremal Betti number of the binomial edge ideal of a block graph, and classify all block graphs admitting precisely one extremal Betti number.

We consider the topology of simplicial complexes with vertices the points of a random point process and faces determined by distance relationships between the vertices. In particular, we study the Betti numbers of these complexes as the…

Let $S$ be a polynomial ring in $n$ variables over a field $K$ of characteristic $0$. A numerical characterization of all possible extremal Betti numbers of any graded submodule of a finitely generated graded free $S$-module is given.

In this paper, we study the expectation values of topological invariants of the Vietoris-Rips complex and \v{C}ech complex for a finite set of sample points on a Riemannian manifold. We show that the Betti number and Euler characteristic of…

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…

This paper gives a sharp upper bound for the Betti numbers of a finitely generated multigraded $R$-module, where $R=\Bbbk [x_{1},...,x_{m}]$ is the polynomial ring over a field $\Bbbk$ in $m$ variables. The bound is given in terms of the…

We describe an algorithm for finding sharp upper bounds for the total Betti numbers of a saturated ideal given certain constraints on its Hilbert function. This algorithm is implemented in the Macaulay2 package, MaxBettiNumbers, along with…

We consider the multi-parameter random simplicial complex as a higher dimensional extension of the classical Erd\"os-R\'enyi graph. We investigate appearance of "unusual" topological structures in the complex from the point of view of large…
