The toric g-vector conjecture for non-simplicial polytopes
A polytope has a toric -vector, whose entries form a candidate for an -sequence. An -sequence is a sequence satisfying Macaulay inequalities, namely the inequalities referred to in the source.
Toric -vector conjecture. The toric -vector of a non-simplicial polytope is an -sequence, i.e. it satisfies Macaulay inequalities.
This conjecture seeks an -vector-type characterization for non-simplicial polytopes. The source motivates it by the desirability of an algebraic object and shifting operator for more general graded posets, but gives no resolution.
