CONE OF FLAG l-VECTORS OF HALF-EULERIAN POSETS OF RANK 5 Extreme rays, given by interval systems: (1): 0 (2): [1,2] (3): [2,3] (4): [3,4] (5): [1,2][3,4] (6): [1,4] Flag l-vectors The entries l(S) in the flag l-vector are represented by variables xi as follows: x1 = l(emptyset) x2 = l(12) x3 = l(23) x4 = l(34) x5 = l(1234) Flag l-vectors of extremes: ( 1) 1 0 0 0 0 ( 2) 1 -1 0 0 0 ( 3) 1 0 -1 0 0 ( 4) 1 0 0 -1 0 ( 5) 1 -1 0 -1 1 ( 6) 1 0 0 0 -1 Inequalities for the cone: (L 1) +x4 <= 0 (L 2) +x3 <= 0 (L 3) +x2 <= 0 (L 4) +x4+x5 <= 0 (L 5) +x2 +x5 <= 0 (L 6) -x1-x2-x3-x4-x5 <= 0 Strong validity table. A * in row i and column j indicates that extreme (j) lies on the facet given by inequality (L i). The right-most column gives the number of extremes on each facet. The bottom two rows, read vertically, give the number of facets containing each extreme. \ P | | \ O | | I \ I | | N \ N | 1 6 | # E \ T | | Q \ S | | S \ | | \ | | ----------------------- 1 | ***.. * : 4 2 | **.** * : 5 3 | *.**. * : 4 4 | ***.* . : 4 5 | *.*** . : 4 6 | .**** * : 5 ............. # | 54544 4
