Complementary-size simplicial vertex boundaries can be asymmetric
ID: complementary-size-simplicial-vertex-boundaries-can-be-asymmetric
In the seven-dimensional Boolean hypercube, contains every set of size at most three except . Its external vertex boundary consists of that missing triple and all 35 four-sets. The complementary-size initial segment contains every set of size at most three and . Its external vertex boundary has the other 34 four-sets and three five-sets. Thus complementary family sizes do not impose a symmetric boundary profile.
