Given a finite-dimensional complex simple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ and a complex number $\kappa$, let $V^{\kappa}(\mathfrak{g})$ be the associated universal affine vertex algebra. In [GK07], the authors gave a sufficient and necessary…

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…

We find decompositions of $h$-polynomials of flag doubly Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complex that yield a direct connection between gamma vectors of flag spheres and constructions used to build them geometrically. More specifically, they are…

A notion of an $i$-banner simplicial complex is introduced. For various values of $i$, these complexes interpolate between the class of flag complexes and the class of all simplicial complexes. Examples of simplicial spheres of an arbitrary…

A method that often works for constructing a flag complex with a specified face vector is given. This method can also be adapted to construct a vertex-decomposable (and hence Cohen-Macaulay) flag complex with a specified h-vector.

Let $G$ be a graph consisting of $s$ odd cycles that all share a common vertex. Bhaskara, Higashitani, and Shibu Deepthi recently computed the $h$-polynomial for the quotient ring $R/I_G$, where $I_G$ is the toric ideal of $G$, in terms of…

We introduce a notion of lexicographic shellability for pure, balanced boolean cell complexes, modelled after the $CL$-shellability criterion of Bj\"orner and Wachs for posets and its generalization by Kozlov called $CC$-shellability. We…

In this paper we show that a $k$-shellable simplicial complex is the expansion of a shellable complex. We prove that the face ring of a pure $k$-shellable simplicial complex satisfies the Stanley conjecture. In this way, by applying…

We prove a duality theorem for simplicial complexes arising from a combinatorial construction we define, which applies to the squarefree monomial complexes for Veronese ideals of projective spaces and weighted projective spaces. Our theorem…

Given a simplicial complex we associate to it a squarefree monomial ideal which we call the face ideal of the simplicial complex, and show that it has linear quotients. It turns out that its Alexander dual is a whisker complex. We apply…

Let $\Delta$ be a $(d-1)$-dimensional simplicial complex and $h^ \Delta = (h_0^ \Delta ,\ldots, h_d^ \Delta)$ its $h$-vector. For a face uniform subdivision operation ${\mathcal F}$ we write $\Delta_{\mathcal F}$ for the subdivided complex…

In a recent paper, Duval, Goeckner, Klivans and Martin disproved the longstanding conjecture by Stanley, that every Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complex is partitionable. We construct counterexamples to this conjecture that are even…

We show that for a vertex decomposable simplicial complex $\Delta$, the Rees algebra of $I_{\Delta^{\vee}}$ is a normal Cohen-Macaulay domain. As consequences, we show that any squarefree weakly polymatroidal ideal is normal and we obtain…

For every simple graph $G$, a class of multiple clique cluster-whiskered graphs $G^{md}$ is introduced, and it is shown that all graphs $G^{md}$ are vertex decomposable, thus the independence simplicial complex ${\rm Ind}\,G^{md}$ is…

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 paper, we answer two questions on local $h$-vectors, which were asked by Athanasiadis. First, we characterize all possible local $h$-vectors of quasi-geometric subdivisions of a simplex. Second, we prove that the local…

We generalize the definition and enumeration of spanning trees from the setting of graphs to that of arbitrary-dimensional simplicial complexes $\Delta$, extending an idea due to G. Kalai. We prove a simplicial version of the Matrix-Tree…

This paper studies the wall and chamber structure of algebras via generic decompositions of g-vectors. Specifically, we examine points outside the chambers of the wall and chamber structure of ($\tau$-tilting infinite) finite-dimensional…

Geometric vertex decomposition and liaison are two frameworks that have been used to produce similar results about similar families of algebraic varieties. In this paper, we establish an explicit connection between these approaches. In…
