Let \(h=(h_0,\dots,h_d)\) be the \(h\)-vector of a combinatorial \(2k\)-manifold \(M\) whose convex hull is a centrally symmetric polytope \(P\), \(M\) is a subcomplex of the boundary complex of \(P\), and \(M\) contains the \(k\)-skeleton of \(P\). The author proves a lower bound for \(h_{k+1}-h_k\).
