Abstract: A small triangulation of the sphere product can be found in lower dimensions by computer search and is known in few other cases: Klee and Novik constructed a centrally symmetric triangulation of $mathbb{S}^{i}imesmathbb{S}^{d-i-1}$ with $2d+2$ vertices for all $dgeq3$ and $1leqileqd-2$; they also proposed a balanced triangulation of $mathbb{S}^{1}imesmathbb{S}^{d-2}$ with $3d$ or $3d+2$ vertices. In this paper, we provide another centrally symmetric $(2d+2)$-vertex triangulation of $mathbb{S}^{2}imesmathbb{S}^{d-3}$. We also construct the first balanced triangulation of $mathbb{S}^{2}imesmathbb{S}^{d-3}$ with $4d$ vertices, using a sphere decomposition inspired by handle theory.
