SimplicialDecomposability: a package for Macaulay 2

arXiv:1002.2438

Abstract

We introduce a new Macaulay 2 package, SimplicialDecomposability, which works in conjunction with the extant package SimplicialComplexes in order to compute a shelling order, if one exists, of a specified simplicial complex. Further, methods for determining vertex-decomposability are implemented, along with methods for determining k-decomposability.
