A Kruskal–Katona type result and applications

Inspired by the Kruskal–Katona theorem a minimization problem is studied, where the role of the shadow is replaced by the image of the action of a certain subset of the monoid of increasing functions. One of our main results shows that compressed sets are a solution to this problem. Several applicat...

Zusammenfassung:Inspired by the Kruskal–Katona theorem a minimization problem is studied, where the role of the shadow is replaced by the image of the action of a certain subset of the monoid of increasing functions. One of our main results shows that compressed sets are a solution to this problem. Several applications to simplicial complexes are discussed.
