In this paper, we study face vectors of simplicial posets that are the face posets of cell decompositions of topological manifolds without boundary. We characterize all possible face vectors of simplicial posets whose geometric realizations…
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…
We construct a family of points on the Lagrangian cone of a partial flag bundle associated to a (possibly non-split) vector bundle from any Weyl-invariant $I$-function of a prequotient. This result can be seen as the nonabelian analogue of…
Generalizing a conjecture by De Loera et al., we conjecture that integral generalized permutohedra all have positive Ehrhart coefficients. Berline and Vergne construct a valuation that assigns values to faces of polytopes, which provides a…
We investigate the orientability of a class of vector bundles over flag manifolds of real semi-simple Lie groups, which include the tangent bundle and also stable bundles of certain gradient flows. Closed formulas, in terms of roots, are…
This expository paper discusses some conjectures related to visibility and blockers for sets of points in the plane.
We present examples of flag homology spheres whose $\gamma$-vectors satisfy the Kruskal-Katona inequalities. This includes several families of well-studied simplicial complexes, including Coxeter complexes and the simplicial complexes dual…
A generalization of a theorem of Crabb and Hubbuck concerning the embedding of flag representations in divided powers is given, working over an arbitrary finite field F, using the category of functors from finite-dimensional F-vector spaces…
We discuss various old and new definitions of the notion of a vector field on a convenient manifold that can be proved to give rise to Lie algebras, and are in finite dimensions equivalent to the standard notion of a vector field.
It is proved that the Boolean algebra of rank n minimizes the flag f-vector among all graded lattices of rank n, whose proper part has nontrivial top-dimensional homology. The analogous statement for the flag h-vector is conjectured in the…
A common generalization of two theorems on the face numbers of Cohen-Macaulay (CM, for short) simplicial complexes is established: the first is the theorem of Stanley (necessity) and Bjorner-Frankl-Stanley (sufficiency) that characterizes…
We prove Gamma conjecture I for all flag varieties by following a strategy proposed by Galkin and Iritani. The main new ingredient is showing that the totally positive part of the Rietsch mirror is mirror to the $\widehat{\Gamma}$-class and…
Any convex polytope whose combinatorial automorphism group has two orbits on the flags is isomorphic to one whose group of Euclidean symmetries has two orbits on the flags (equivalently, to one whose automorphism group and symmetry group…
We find necessary and sufficient conditions under which the complex coordinates on a flag manifold of a classical group described in [2] are Bochner coordinates.
Using an intuition from metric geometry, we prove that any flag and normal simplicial complex satisfies the non-revisiting path conjecture. As a consequence, the diameter of its facet-ridge graph is smaller than the number of vertices minus…
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 partition in classes the set of matroids of fixed dimension on a fixed vertex set. In each class we identify two special matroids, respectively with minimal and maximal h-vector in that class. Such extremal matroids also satisfy a…
We prove the second Voronoi conjecture on parallelohedra for zonotope. We show that for a given face-to-face tiling of d-dimensional Euclidean space into parallel copies of zonotope Z there are d vectors, connecting centers of zonotopes…
Blind and Mani, and later Kalai, showed that the face lattice of a simple polytope is determined by its graph, namely its $1$-skeleton. Call a vertex of a $d$-polytope \emph{nonsimple} if the number of edges incident to it is more than $d$.…
A polygonal complex in euclidean 3-space is a discrete polyhedron-like structure with finite or infinite polygons as faces and finite graphs as vertex-figures, such that a fixed number r of faces surround each edge. It is said to be regular…
