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.

Face numbers of triangulations of simplicial complexes were studied by Stanley by use of his concept of a local h-vector. It is shown that a parallel theory exists for cubical subdivisions of cubical complexes, in which the role of the h-vector of a simplicial complex is played by the (short or long) cubical h-vector of a cubical complex, defined by Adin, and the role of the local h-vector of a...

After two papers on weak cubical categories and collarable cospans, respectively, we put things together and construct a weak cubical category of cubical collared cospans of topological spaces. We also build a second structure, called a quasi cubical category, formed of arbitrary cubical cospans concatenated by homotopy pushouts. This structure, simpler but weaker, has lax identities. It contai...

The paper deals with combinatorial and stochastic structures of cubical token systems. A cubical token system is an instance of a token system, which in turn is an instance of a transition system. It is shown that some basic results of combinatorial and stochastic parts of media theory hold almost in identical form for cubical token systems, although some underlying concepts are quite different...

We prove that the neighborly cubical polytopes studied by Günter M. Ziegler and the first author [14] arise as a special case of the neighborly cubical spheres constructed by Babson, Billera, and Chan [4]. By relating the two constructions we obtain an explicit description of a non-polytopal neighborly cubical sphere and, further, a new proof of the fact that the cubical equivelar surfaces of M...

We construct a model of cubical type theory with a univalent and impredicative universe in a category of cubical assemblies. We show that the cubical assembly model does not satisfy the propositional resizing axiom.

We provide a number of new construction techniques for cubical complexes and cubical polytopes, and thus for cubifications (hexahedral mesh generation). As an application we obtain an instance of a cubical 4-polytope that has a non-orientable dual manifold (a Klein bottle). This confirms an existence conjecture of Hetyei (1995). More systematically, we prove that every normal crossing codimensi...

We construct a family of cubical polytypes which shows that the upper bound on the number of facets of a cubical polytope (given a fixed number of vertices) is higher than previously suspected. We also formulate a lower bound conjecture for cubical polytopes.

Extended cubical sets (with connections and interchanges) are presheaves on a ground category, the extended cubical site K, corresponding to the (augmented) simplicial site, the category of finite ordinals. We prove here that K has characterisations similar to the classical ones for the simplicial analogue, by generators and relations, or by the existence of a universal symmetric cubical monoid...

This paper is an exposition of the ideas and methods of Cisinksi, in the context of A-presheaves on a small Grothendieck site, where A is an arbitrary test category in the sense of Grothendieck. The homotopy theory for the category of simplicial presheaves and each of its localizations can be modelled by A-presheaves in the sense that there is a corresponding model structure for A-presheaves wi...
