The upper bound inequality h i (P)&h i&1 (P) ( n&d+i&2 i ) (0 i dÂ2) is proved for the toric h-vector of a rational convex d-dimensional polytope with n vertices. This gives nonlinear inequalities on flag vectors of rational polytopes. ## 1998 Academic Press A major result in polytope theory is th
Since at least half of the d edges incident to a vertex u of a simple d-polytope P either all point "up" or all point "down," v must be the unique "bottom" or "top" vertex of a face of P of dimension at least d/2. Thus the number of P's vertices is at most twice the number of such high-dimensional f
Erdos and Rado defined a A-system, as a family in which every two members have the same intersection. Here we obtain a new upper bound on the maximum cardinality q ( n , q ) of an n-uniform family not containing any A-system of cardinality q. Namely, we prove that, for any a > 1 and q , there exists
