Given a combinatorial $(d-1)$-sphere $S$, to construct a combinatorial $d$-sphere $S^{hspace{.2mm}prime}$ containing $S$, one usually needs some more vertices. Here we consider the question whether we can do one such construction without the help of any additional vertices. We show that this question has affirmative answer when $S$ is a flag sphere, a stacked sphere or a join of spheres. We also consider the question whether we can construct an $n$-vertex combinatorial $d$-sphere containing a given $n$-vertex combinatorial $d$-ball.

We show that if a prime homology sphere has the same Floer homology as the standard three-sphere, it does not contain any incompressible tori.
It is one of the most important facts in 4-dimensional topology that not every spherical homology class of a 4-manifold can be represented by an embedded sphere. In 1978, M. Freedman and R. Kirby showed that in the simply connected case, many of the obstructions to constructing such a sphere vanish if one modifies the ambient 4-manifold by adding products of 2-spheres, a process which is usually called stabilisation. In this paper, we extend this result to non-simply connected 4-manifolds and show how it is related to the Spin^c-bordism groups of Eilenberg-MacLane spaces.
Certain patterns of symmetry fractionalization in (2+1)D topologically ordered phases of matter can be anomalous, which means that they possess an obstruction to being realized in purely (2+1)D. In this paper we demonstrate how to compute the anomaly for symmetry-enriched topological (SET) states of bosons in complete generality. We demonstrate how, given any unitary modular tensor category (UMTC) and symmetry fractionalization class for a global symmetry group $G$, one can define a (3+1)D topologically invariant path integral in terms of a state sum for a $G$ symmetry-protected topological (SPT) state. We present an exactly solvable Hamiltonian for the system and demonstrate explicitly a (2+1)D $G$ symmetric surface termination that hosts deconfined anyon excitations described by the given UMTC and symmetry fractionalization class. We present concrete algorithms that can be used to compute anomaly indicators in general. Our approach applies to general symmetry groups, including anyon-permuting and anti-unitary symmetries. In addition to providing a general way to compute the anomaly, our result also shows, by explicit construction, that every symmetry fractionalization class for any UMTC can be realized at the surface of a (3+1)D SPT state. As a byproduct, this construction also provides a way of explicitly seeing how the algebraic data that defines symmetry fractionalization in general arises in the context of exactly solvable models. In the case of unitary orientation-preserving symmetries, our results can also be viewed as providing a method to compute the $mathcal{H}^4(G, U(1))$ obstruction that arises in the theory of $G$-crossed braided tensor categories, for which no general method has been presented to date.
Lattices have been used in several problems in coding theory and cryptography. In this paper we approach $q$-ary lattices obtained via Constructions D, $D$ and $overline{D}$. It is shown connections between Constructions D and $D$. Bounds for the minimum $l_1$-distance of lattices $Lambda_{D}$, $Lambda_{D}$ and $Lambda_{overline{D}}$ and, under certain conditions, a generator matrix for $Lambda_{D}$ are presented. In addition, when the chain of codes used is closed under the zero-one addition, we derive explicit expressions for the minimum $l_1$-distances of the lattices $Lambda_{D}$ and $Lambda_{overline{D}}$ attached to the distances of the codes used in these constructions.
We study compactifications of $6d$ non minimal $(D_{p+3},D_{p+3})$ type conformal matter. These can be described by $N$ M5-branes probing a $D_{p+3}$-type singularity. We derive $4d$ Lagrangians corresponding to compactifications of such $6d$ SCFTs on three punctured spheres (trinions) with two maximal punctures and one minimal puncture. The trinion models are described by simple $mathcal{N}=1$ quivers with $SU(2N)$ gauge nodes. We derive the trinion Lagrangians using RG flows between the aforementioned $6d$ SCFTs with different values of $p$ and their relations to matching RG flows in their compactifications to $4d$. The suggested trinions are shown to reduce to known models in the minimal case of $N=1$. Additional checks are made to show the new minimal punctures uphold the expected S-duality between models in which we exchange two such punctures. We also show that closing the new minimal puncture leads to expected flux tube models.
