Separation-type combinatorial invariants for triangulations of manifolds
We propose and study a variation of Bagchi and Datta's $\sigma$-vector of a simplicial complex C, whose entries are defined as weighted sums of Betti numbers of induced subcomplexes of C. We prove…
On Walkup’s class K(d) and a minimal triangulation of (S ⋉S)
For d ≥ 2, Walkup’s class K(d) consists of the d-dimensional simplicial complexes all whose vertex-links are stacked (d − 1)-spheres. Kalai showed that for d ≥ 4, all connected members of K(d) are…

Walkup’s class K(d) consists of the d-dimensional simplicial complexes all whose vertex links are stacked (d − 1)-spheres. According to a result of Walkup, the face vector of any triangulated…

We introduce the class Σk(d) of k-stellated (combinatorial) spheres of dimension d (0 ≤ k ≤ d+1) and compare and contrast it with the class Sk(d) (0 ≤ k ≤ d) of k-stacked homology d-spheres. We have…
Face numbers of manifolds with boundary
We study face numbers of simplicial complexes that triangulate manifolds (or even normal pseudomanifolds) with boundary. Specifically, we establish a sharp lower bound on the number of interior edges…

We prove a number of new restrictions on the enumerative properties of homology manifolds and semi-Eulerian complexes and posets. These include a determination of the affine span of the fine h-vector…
The lower bound conjecture for 3- and 4-manifolds
For any closed connected d-manifold M let ](M) denote the set of vectors / (K)= (]0(K) ..... fd(K)), where K ranges over all triangulations of M and ]k(K) denotes the number of k-simplices of K. The…
