Golodness and polyhedral products of simplicial complexes with minimal Taylor resolutions (Q1707278): Difference between revisions

Golodness is a property of a graded commutative ring \(R\) which is originally defined by a certain equality involving a Poincaré series of the cohomology of \(R\), and Golod gave an equivalent condition in terms of the derived torsion algebra of \(R\). Golodness has been intensively studied for Stanley-Reisner rings since those of important simplicial complexes such as dual sequentially Cohen-Macaulay complexes are known to have the Golod property. The goal of this paper is to continue this study. Let \(K\) be a simplicial complex on the vertex set \([m]\) such that the Taylor resolution for its Stanley-Reisner ring is minimal. The authors prove that the following conditions are equivalent: (1) \(K\) is Golod; (2) any two minimal non-faces of \(K\) are not disjoint; (3) the moment-angle complex for \(K\) is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres; (4) the decomposition of the suspension of the polyhedral product \(\mathcal{Z}_K(C\underline{X}, \underline{X})\) due to Bahri, Bendersky, Cohen and Gitler desuspends.
