Lower bound theorem for normal pseudomanifolds
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present a self-contained combinatorial proof of the lower bound theorem for normal pseudomanifolds, including a treatment of the cases of equality in this theorem. We also discuss McMullen and Walkup’s generalised lower bound conjecture for triangulated spheres in the context of the lower bound theorem. Finally, we pose a new lower bound conjecture for non-simply connected triangulated manifolds. MSC 2000: 57Q15, 57R05.

Lower Bound Theorems and a Generalized Lower Bound Conjecture for balanced simplicial complexes
A (d − 1)-dimensional simplicial complex is called balanced if its underlying graph admits a proper d-coloring. We show that many well-known face enumeration results have natural balanced analogs (or at least conjectural analogs). Specifically, we prove the balanced analog of the celebrated Lower Bound Theorem for normal pseudomanifolds and characterize the case of equality; we introduce and ch...
متن کاملFace numbers of pseudomanifolds with isolated singularities
We investigate the face numbers of simplicial complexes with Buchsbaum vertex links, especially pseudomanifolds with isolated singularities. This includes deriving Dehn-Sommerville relations for pseudomanifolds with isolated singularities and establishing lower and upper bound theorems when the singularities are also homologically isolated. We give formulas for the Hilbert function of a generic...
متن کاملA Berry-Esseen Type Bound for the Kernel Density Estimator of Length-Biased Data
Length-biased data are widely seen in applications. They are mostly applicable in epidemiological studies or survival analysis in medical researches. Here we aim to propose a Berry-Esseen type bound for the kernel density estimator of this kind of data.The rate of normal convergence in the proposed Berry-Esseen type theorem is shown to be O(n^(-1/6) ) modulo logarithmic term as n tends to infin...
متن کاملLower Bounds for Cubical Pseudomanifolds
It is verified that the number of vertices in a d-dimensional cubical pseudomanifold is at least 2d+1. Using Adin’s cubical h-vector, it is established that the cubical Generalized Lower Bound Conjecture (GLBC) holds for all 4-spheres, as well as some special cases of the cubical GLBC in higher dimensions.
متن کاملThree-Dimensional Pseudomanifolds on Eight Vertices
A normal pseudomanifold is a pseudomanifold in which the links of simplices are also pseudomanifolds. So, a normal 2-pseudomanifold triangulates a connected closed 2-manifold. But, normal d-pseudomanifolds form a broader class than triangulations of connected closed dmanifolds for d ≥ 3. Here, we classify all the 8-vertex neighbourly normal 3-pseudomanifolds. This gives a classification of all ...
