The manifold g-conjecture for h-prime vectors

Let Δ\Delta be a homology manifold, let hih'_i denote its h-prime vector, and let βi1\beta_{i-1} denote its (i1)(i-1)st Betti number. Manifold g-conjecture. For every id/2i\ge\lceil d/2\rceil,

hihi+1+(d1i)βi1.h'_i\ge h'_{i+1}+\binom{d-1}{i}\beta_{i-1}.

This conjecture is the numerical consequence suggested by the manifold algebraic g-conjecture and would impose lower bounds on the h-prime vector in terms of topology. The source presents it as open.
