Geometric realization of a 3-dimensional abstract simplicial complex. In combinatorics, an abstract simplicial complex (ASC), often called an abstract complex or just a complex, is a family of sets that is closed under taking subsets, i.e., every subset of a set in the family is also in the family.
In algebraic combinatorics, the Kruskal–Katona theorem gives a complete characterization of the f-vectors of abstract simplicial complexes.It includes as a special case the Erdős–Ko–Rado theorem and can be restated in terms of uniform hypergraphs.
Let Δ be an abstract simplicial complex of dimension d − 1 with f i i-dimensional faces and f −1 = 1. These numbers are arranged into the f-vector of Δ, = (,, …,).An important special case occurs when Δ is the boundary of a d-dimensional convex polytope.
Let be an abstract simplicial complex on a vertex set of size . The Alexander dual X ∗ {\displaystyle X^{*}} of X {\displaystyle X} is defined as the simplicial complex on V {\displaystyle V} whose faces are complements of non-faces of X {\displaystyle X} .
The math template formats mathematical formulas generated using HTML or wiki markup. (It does not accept the AMS-LaTeX markup that <math> does.) The template uses the texhtml class by default for inline text style formulas, which aims to match the size of the serif font with the surrounding sans-serif font (see below).
An abstract simplicial complex (ASC) is family of sets that is closed under taking subsets (the subset of a set in the family is also a set in the family). Every abstract simplicial complex has a unique geometric realization in a Euclidean space as a geometric simplicial complex (GSC), where each set with k elements in the ASC is mapped to a (k-1)-dimensional simplex in the GSC.
A simplicial 3-complex. In mathematics, a simplicial complex is a structured set composed of points, line segments, triangles, and their n-dimensional counterparts, called simplices, such that all the faces and intersections of the elements are also included in the set (see illustration).
In topology, the Vietoris–Rips complex, also called the Vietoris complex or Rips complex, is a way of forming a topological space from distances in a set of points. It is an abstract simplicial complex that can be defined from any metric space M and distance δ by forming a simplex for every finite set of points that has diameter at most δ.
