Abstract

A numerical characterization is given of the so-called h-triangles of\nsequentially Cohen-Macaulay simplicial complexes. This result characterizes the\nnumber of faces of various dimensions and codimensions in such a complex,\ngeneralizing the classical Macaulay-Stanley theorem to the nonpure case.\nMoreover, we characterize the possible Betti tables of componentwise linear\nideals. A key tool in our investigation is a bijection between shifted\nmulticomplexes of degree at most d and shifted pure (d-1)-dimensional\nsimplicial complexes.\n
