Updated; added section 5 (on manifolds)", "categories": [ "math.CO" ], "abstract": "The family of Buchsbaum simplicial posets generalizes the family of simplicial cell manifolds. The $h'$-vector of a simplicial complex or simplicial poset encodes the combinatorial and topological data of its face numbers and the reduced Betti numbers of its geometric realization. Novik and Swartz showed that the $h'$-vector of a Buchsbaum simplicial poset satisfies certain simple inequalities; in this paper we show that these necessary conditions are in fact sufficient to characterize the $h'$-vectors of Buchsbaum simplicial posets with prescribed Betti numbers.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-10-05T11:57:37.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "06A07", "52B05" ], "keywords": [ "face numbers", "classification", "buchsbaum simplicial posets generalizes", "buchsbaum simplicial poset satisfies", "simplicial poset encodes" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1307.1548B" } } }
