Large simple d-cycles in simplicial complexes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We show that the size of the largest simple d-cycle in a simplicial d-complex K is at least a square root of K’s density. This is a higher dimensional relative of a classical result of Erdős and Gallai [7], claiming that any graph G contains a simple cycle of size at least linear in G’s density.
