Shellability and higher Cohen-Macaulay connectivity of generalized cluster complexes

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: Let Phi be a finite root system of rank n and let m be a nonnegative integer. The generalized cluster complex Deltam(Phi) was introduced by S. Fomin and N. Reading. It was conjectured by these authors that Deltam(Phi) is shellable and by V. Reiner that it is (m+1)-Cohen-Macaulay, in the sense of Baclawski. These statements are proved in this paper. Analogous statements are shown to hold for the positive part Delta+m(Phi) of Deltam(Phi). An explicit homotopy equivalence is given between Delta+m(Phi) and the poset of generalized noncrossing partitions, associated to the pair (Phi,m) by D. Armstrong.
