Dan's correction incorporated in last paragraph

Jul 2, 2013 at 16:51 | comment | added | Vidit Nanda | Thanks, Dan! I remember Mnev's correction of Biss's papers, and really should have kept it in mind. | |
Jul 2, 2013 at 16:47 | comment | added | Dan Ramras | The statement in the last paragraph is rather famously false without some extra hypotheses (which are satisfied in this setting) . If you take the circle and write it as a union of two half-open arcs with empty intersection, you get a counterexample. This is the problem that was identified by Mnev in Biss's (faulty) proof of Macpherson's matroid Grassmannian conjecture. Here it's fine because you're talking about simplicial complexes. | |
