The $\gamma$-vector is an important enumerative invariant of a flag simplicial homology sphere. It has been conjectured by Gal that this vector is nonnegative for every such sphere $\Delta$ and by Reiner, Postnikov and Williams that it…
From the paper of the first author it follows that upper and lower bounds for $\gamma$-vector of a simple polytope imply the bounds for its $g$-,$h$- and $f$-vectors. In the paper of the second author it was obtained unimprovable upper and…
Let $D$ be the Auslander algebra of $\mathbb{C}[t]/(t^n)$, which is quasi-hereditary, and $\mathcal{F}_\Delta$ the subcategory of good $D$-modules. For any $\mathsf{J}\subseteq[1, n-1]$, we construct a subcategory…
We prove general topological Radon-type theorems for sets in $\mathbb R^d$ or on a surface. Combined with a recent result of Holmsen and Lee, we also obtain fractional Helly theorem, and consequently the existence of weak $\varepsilon$-nets…
This paper defines for each object $X$ that can be constructed out of a finite number of vertices and cells a vector $fX$ lying in a finite dimensional vector space. This is the flag vector of $X$. It is hoped that the quantum topological…
We study cohomological properties of complex manifolds. In particular, under suitable metric conditions, we extend to higher dimensions a result by A. Teleman, which provides an upper bound for the Bott-Chern cohomology in terms of Betti…
We compute the homology of the matching complex $M(\Gamma)$, where $\Gamma$ is the complete hypergraph on $n\geq 2$ vertices, and analyse the $S_n$-representations carried by this homology. These results are achieved using standard…
We resolve a conjecture of Kalai asserting that the $g_2$-number of any simplicial complex $\Delta$ that represents a connected normal pseudomanifold of dimension $d\geq 3$ is at least as large as ${d+2 \choose 2}m(\Delta)$, where…
We give an algorithm with singly exponential complexity for computing the barcodes up to dimension $\ell$ (for any fixed $\ell \geq 0$) of the filtration of a given semi-algebraic set by the sub-level sets of a given polynomial. Our…

We study the equivariant flag $f$-vector and equivariant flag $h$-vector of a balanced relative simplicial complex with respect to a group action. When the complex satisfies Serre's condition $(S_{\ell}),$ we show that the equivariant flag…
To a matroid M with n edges, we associate the so-called facet ideal F(M) generated by monomials corresponding to bases of M. We show that the Betti numbers related to an N-graded minimal free resolution of F(M) are determined by the Betti…
The well known fractional Helly theorem and colorful Helly theorem can be merged into the so called colorful fractional Helly theorem. It states: For every $\alpha \in (0, 1]$ and every non-negative integer $d$, there is $\beta_{col} =…
Let $ \Phi=(G, \varphi) $ be a connected complex unit gain graph ($ \mathbb{T} $-gain graph) on a simple graph $ G $ with $ n $ vertices and maximum vertex degree $ \Delta $. The associated adjacency matrix and degree matrix are denoted by…
For a rank 1 local system on the complement of a reduced divisor on a complex manifold $X$, its cohomology is calculated by the twisted meromorphic de Rham complex. Assuming the divisor is everywhere positively weighted homogeneous, we…
In this note we construct a flag simplicial $3$-sphere $\Delta$ with the following properties: - $\Delta$ is not a suspension; - $\Delta$ has no edge that can be contracted to obtain another flag sphere; - The only equators (induced…
Suppose $\Delta$ is a pure simplicial complex on $n$ vertices having dimension $d$ and let $c = n-d-1$ be its codimension in the simplex. Terai and Yoshida proved that if the number of facets of $\Delta$ is at least $\binom{n}{c}-2c+1$,…
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…
If $M$ is the complement of a hyperplane arrangement, and $A=H^*(M,\k)$ is the cohomology ring of $M$ over a field of characteristic 0, then the ranks, $\phi_k$, of the lower central series quotients of $\pi_1(M)$ can be computed from the…
We study degree sequences for simplicial posets and polyhedral complexes, generalizing the well-studied graphical degree sequences. Here we extend the more common generalization of vertex-to-facet degree sequences by considering arbitrary…
