Abstract: Given a polynomial ring S=Bbbk[x1,dots,xn] over a field Bbbk, and a monomial ideal M of S, we say the quotient ring R=S/M is Macaulay-Lex if for every graded ideal of R, there exists a lexicographic ideal of R with the same Hilbert function. In this paper, we introduce a class of quotient rings with combinatorial significance, which we call colored quotient rings. This class of rings include Clements-Lindstr"om rings and colored squarefree rings as special cases that are known to be Macaulay-Lex. We construct two new classes of Macaulay-Lex rings, characterize all colored quotient rings that are Macaulay-Lex, and give a simultaneous generalization of both the Clements-Lindstr"om theorem and the Frankl-F"uredi-Kalai theorem. We also show that the f-vectors of (a1,dots,an)-colored simplicial complexes or multicomplexes are never characterized by "reverse-lexicographic" complexes or multicomplexes when n>1 and (a1,dots,an)eq(1,dots,1).
