The manifold g′′g''-conjecture for balanced homology manifolds

At least 10 years old · documented by

Let Δ\Delta be a balanced, orientable k\mathbf{k}-homology manifold without boundary. Define g”j(Δ)=h”j(Δ)−h”j−1(Δ)g”_j(\Delta)=h”_j(\Delta)-h”_{j-1}(\Delta). Balanced manifold g”g”-conjecture. The vector

(g”j(Δ))j=0⌊d/2⌋(g”_j(\Delta))_{j=0}^{\lfloor d/2\rfloor}

is the ff-vector of a simplicial complex. The conjecture is known for barycentric subdivisions of homology manifolds, but remains open in general.
