Shellability of a simplicial complex has many useful structural implications. In particular, it was shown by Danaraj and Klee that every shellable pseudo-manifold is a PL-sphere. The purpose of this paper is to prove the shellability of the…

We show that a finite regular cell complex with the intersection property is a Cohen-Macaulay space iff the top enriched cohomology module is the only nonvanishing one. We prove a comprehensive generalization of Balinski's theorem on convex…

A colored complex of type $\mathbf{a} = (a_1, \dots, a_n)$ is a simplicial complex ${\Delta}$ on a vertex set $V$, together with an ordered partition $(V_1, \dots, V_n)$ of $V$, such that every face $F$ of ${\Delta}$ satisfies $|F \cap V_i|…

The concept of Cohen-Macaulay complexes emerged in the mid-1970s and swiftly became the focal point of an attractive and richly connected new area of mathematics, at the crossroads of combinatoics, commutative algebra and topology. As the…

In an earlier paper, we studied manifolds $M$ endowed with a generalized F structure $\Phi\in End(TM\oplus T^*M)$, skew-symmetric with respect to the pairing metric, such that $\Phi^3+\Phi=0$. Furthermore, if $\Phi$ is integrable (in some…

The $F$-triangle is a refined face count for the generalised cluster complex of Fomin and Reading. We compute the $F$-triangle explicitly for all irreducible finite root systems. Furthermore, we use these results to partially prove the…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field and $\Phi$ a finite dimensional $k$-algebra. The universal localization $\Phi\rightarrow \Phi_\mathcal{S}$ of $\Phi$ with respect to a set of morphisms between finitely generated projective…

Here we show that, given a finite homological system $({\cal P},\leq,\{\Delta_u\}_{u\in {\cal P}})$ for a finite-dimensional algebra $\Lambda$ over an algebraically closed field, the category ${\cal F}(\Delta)$ of $\Delta$-filtered modules…

After [J.Herzog, D.Popescu, Finite filtrations of modules and shellable multicomplexes, Preprint IMAR no 4/2005, Bucharest, 2005], the shellability of multicomplexes $\Gamma$ is given in terms of some special faces of $\Gamma$ called…

We study the independence complexes of families of well-covered circulant graphs discovered by Boros-Gurvich-Milani\v{c}, Brown-Hoshino, and Moussi. Because these graphs are well-covered, their independence complexes are pure simplicial…

Shellings of simplicial complexes have long been a useful tool in topological and algebraic combinatorics. Shellings of a complex expose a large amount of information in a helpful way, but are not easy to construct, often requiring deep…

We generalize the almost positive roots model for cluster algebras from finite type to a uniform finite/affine type model. We define the almost positive Schur roots $\Phi_c$ and a compatibility degree, given by a formula that is new even in…

The FDA algebras emerging from twisted tori compactifications of M-theory with fluxes are discussed within the general classification scheme provided by Sullivan's theorems and by Chevalley cohomology. It is shown that the generalized…

Let $M$ be a subset of vector space or projective space. The authors define the \emph{generalized configuration space} of $M$ which is formed by $n$-tuples of elements of $M$ where any $k$ elements of each $n$-tuple are linearly…

We continue the study of the theories of Baldwin-Shi hypergraphs from $[5]$. Restricting our attention to when the rank $\delta$ is rational valued, we show that each countable model of the theory of a given Baldwin-Shi hypergraph is…

Given a continuous dynamical system $f:X\to X$ on a compact metric space $X$ and an $m$-dimensional continuous potential $\Phi:X\to \mathbb R^m$, the (generalized) rotation set ${\rm Rot}(\Phi)$ is defined as the set of all $\mu$-integrals…

Let X be a pseudomanifold. In this text, we use a simplicial blow-up to define a cochain complex whose cohomology with coefficients in a field, is isomorphic to the intersection cohomology of X, introduced by M. Goresky and R. MacPherson.…

We show that the facet-ridge graph of a shellable simplicial sphere $\Delta$ uniquely determines the entire combinatorial structure of $\Delta$. This generalizes the celebrated result due to Blind and Mani (1987), and Kalai (1988) on…

Let $k$ be a field of characteristic $0$, $X$ be a geometrically connected, smooth and proper variety over $k$ and $x\in X(k)$ be a base point. Using the notion of iterated universal extensions, we show that Nori's fundamental group…

Monomial ideals which are generic with respect to either their generators or irreducible components have minimal free resolutions derived from simplicial complexes. For a generic monomial ideal, the associated primes satisfy a saturated…
