Abstract: We propose a combinatorial approach to the following strengthening of Gal's conjecture: $gamma(Delta)gegamma(E)$ coefficientwise, where $Delta$ is a flag homology sphere and $EsubseteqDelta$ an induced homology sphere of codimension $1$. We provide partial evidence in favor of this approach, and prove a nontrivial nonlinear inequality that follows from the above conjecture, for boundary complexes of flag $d$-polytopes: $h_1(Delta)h_i(Delta)ge(d-i+1)h_{i-1}(Delta)+(i+1)h_{i+1}(Delta)$ for all $0leiled$.
