Shelling (topology)

ID: shelling-topology

In topology, *Shelling* refers to a particular process used in the field of combinatorial topology and geometric topology, primarily focusing on the study of polyhedral complexes and their properties. The concept is related to the process of incrementally building a complex by adding faces in a specific order while maintaining certain combinatorial or topological properties, such as connectivity or homotopy type.
