Eisenbud–Green–Harris conjecture on quadratic Artinian algebras

About 16 years old · traced to

Let KK be a field, and consider the hh-vectors of quadratic Artinian KK-algebras and the ff-vectors of simplicial complexes. Eisenbud–Green–Harris conjecture. Every hh-vector of a quadratic Artinian KK-algebra should be an ff-vector of a simplicial complex:

{h-vectors of quadratic Artinian K-algebras}⊆{f-vectors of simplicial complexes}.\{\text{$h$-vectors of quadratic Artinian $K$-algebras}\}\subseteq\{\text{$f$-vectors of simplicial complexes}\}.

The conjecture generalizes the preceding flag-complex assertion, which the paper identifies as a particular case. The supplied text gives no resolution of the general conjecture.
