Pure $\mathcal{O}$-sequences arising from $2$-dimensional PS ear-decomposable simplicial complexes

Abstract

We show that the hh-vector of a 22-dimensional PS ear-decomposable simplicial complex is a pure O\mathcal{O}-sequence. This provides a strengthening of Stanley's conjecture for matroid hh-vectors in rank 33. Our approach modifies the approach of combinatorial shifting for arbitrary simplicial complexes to the setting of 22-dimensional PS ear-decomposable complexes, which allows us to greedily construct a corresponding pure multicomplex.
