In the paper we define a "volume" for simplicial complexes of flag tetrahedra. This generalizes and unifies the classical volume of hyperbolic manifolds and the volume of CR tetrahedra complexes. We describe when this volume belongs to the…
The antiprism triangulation provides a natural way to subdivide a simplicial complex $\Delta$, similar to barycentric subdivision, which appeared independently in combinatorial algebraic topology and computer science. It can be defined as…
We present a discrete Morse-theoretic method for proving that a regular CW complex is homeomorphic to a sphere. We use this method to define bisimplices, the cells of a class of regular CW complexes we call bisimplicial complexes. The…
The terms "whiskering", and more generally "grafting", refer to adding generators to any monomial ideal to make the resulting ideal Cohen-Macaulay. We investigate the independence complexes of simplicial complexes that are constructed…
A relative simplicial complex is a collection of sets of the form $\Delta \setminus \Gamma$, where $\Gamma \subset \Delta$ are simplicial complexes. Relative complexes played key roles in recent advances in algebraic, geometric, and…
The multiplicity conjecture of Herzog, Huneke, and Srinivasan is verified for the face rings of the following classes of simplicial complexes: matroid complexes, complexes of dimension one and two, and Gorenstein complexes of dimension at…
In this work, we construct a new data type for hadronic jets in which the traditional point-cloud representation is transformed into a simplicial complex consisting of vertices, or 0-simplexes. An angular resolution scale, $r$, is then…
We prove a criterion for $k-$formality of arrangements, using a complex constructed from vector spaces introduced in \cite{bt}. As an application, we give a simple description of $k-$formality of graphic arrangements: Let $G$ be a connected…
The notion of a flag kernel on a homogeneous group is exteded to distributions of arbitrary multidimensional order. It is shown that under natural restrictions on order the operation of convolution admits an extension to thus generalised…
A simplicial complex of dimension $d-1$ is said to be balanced if its graph is $d$-colorable. Juhnke-Kubitzke and Murai proved an analogue of the generalized lower bound theorem for balanced simplicial polytopes. We establish a…
Combinatorially and stochastically defined simplicial complexes often have the homotopy type of a wedge of spheres. A prominent conjecture of Kahle quantifies this precisely for the case of random flag complexes. We explore whether such…
A simplicial complement P is a sequence of subsets of [m] and the simplicial complement P corresponds to a unique simplicial complex K with vertices in [m]. In this paper, we defined the homology of a simplicial complement…
An equivalent description of a symmetric monoidal category is introduced in which, instead of separate associator and commutator isomorphisms satisfying the usual coherence axioms, we simply have associo-commutator isomorphisms satisfying…
We construct embeddings of simplicial complexes into a (surface of a) simplicial ball whose triangulation has bounded degrees and low volume. This construction can be used either to efficiently "simplify a complicated space" by realizing it…
Let $\Delta$ be a simplicial complex. We study the expansions of $\Delta$ mainly to see how the algebraic and combinatorial properties of $\Delta$ and its expansions are related to each other. It is shown that $\Delta$ is Cohen-Macaulay,…
In this paper we show that a simplicial complex can be determined uniquely up to isomorphism by its barycentric subdivision or comparability graph. At the end, it is summarized several algebraic, combinatorial and topological invariants of…
Simplicial approximation provides a framework for constructing simplicial complexes that are homotopy equivalent to a given manifold, provided a CW structure is explicitly known. However, its conventional implementation quickly becomes…
If a pure simplicial complex is partitionable, then its $h$-vector has a combinatorial interpretation in terms of any partitioning of the complex. Given a non-partitionable complex $\Delta$, we construct a complex $\Gamma \supseteq \Delta$…
The number of nonisomorphic simplicial complexes with up to $n$ vertices increases super-exponentially with $n$, which makes exhaustive computation of invariants associated with such complexes a daunting task. In this paper we provide a…
Given an infinite field $\mathbb{k}$ and a simplicial complex $\Delta$, a common theme in studying the $f$- and $h$-vectors of $\Delta$ has been the consideration of the Hilbert series of the Stanley--Reisner ring $\mathbb{k}[\Delta]$…
