Title
Tchebyshev Posets
Abstract
We construct for each n an Eulerian partially ordered set Tn of rank n + 1 whose ce-index provides a non-commutative generalization of the n-th Tchebyshev polynomial. We show that the order complex of each Tn is shellable, homeomorphic to a sphere, and that its face numbers minimize the expression max|x| 1 Pn j=0(fj 1/fn 1) · 2 j · (x 1)j among the f-vectors of all (n 1)-dimensional simplicial complexes. The duals of the posets constructed have a recursive structure similar to face lattices of simplices or cubes, oering the study of a new special class of Eulerian partially ordered sets to test the validity of Stanley's conjecture on the non-negativity of the cd-index of all Gorenstein posets.
