On the one hand, the solution of the classical Heawood problem for graphs on surfaces established that the complete graph Kn embeds in a closed surface M (other than the Klein bottle) if and only if (n−3)(n−4) ≤ 6b1(M), where b1(M) is the first Z2-Betti number of M. On the other hand, van Kampen and Flores proved that the k-skeleton of the n-dimensional simplex (the higher-dimensional analogue of Kn+1) embeds in R2k if and only if n ≤ 2k + 1. Two decades ago, Kühnel conjectured that the k-skeleton of the n-simplex embeds in a compact, (k − 1)-connected 2k-manifold with kth Z2-Betti number bk only if the following generalized Heawood inequality holds: (k+1 n−k−1) ≤ (k+1 2k+1)bk. This is a common generalization of the case of graphs on surfaces as well as the van Kampen–Flores theorem. In the spirit of Kühnel’s conjecture, we prove that if the k-skeleton of the n-simplex embeds in a compact 2k-manifold with kth Z2-Betti number bk, then n ≤ 2bk(k 2k+2)+2k+4. This bound is weaker than the generalized Heawood inequality, but does not require the assumption that M is (k−1)-connected. Our results generalize to maps without q-covered points, in the spirit of Tverberg’s theorem, for q a prime power. Our proof uses a result of Volovikov about maps that satisfy a certain homological triviality condition."}],"publication":"Israel Journal of Mathematics","publication_status":"published","related_material":{"record":[{"id":"1511","status":"public","relation":"earlier_version"}]},"author":[{"last_name":"Goaoc","full_name":"Goaoc, Xavier","first_name":"Xavier"},{"full_name":"Mabillard, Isaac","first_name":"Isaac","id":"32BF9DAA-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Mabillard"},{"last_name":"Paták","first_name":"Pavel","full_name":"Paták, Pavel"},{"id":"48B57058-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Patakova","orcid":"0000-0002-3975-1683","first_name":"Zuzana","full_name":"Patakova, Zuzana"},{"last_name":"Tancer","id":"38AC689C-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Martin","full_name":"Tancer, Martin","orcid":"0000-0002-1191-6714"},{"orcid":"0000-0002-1494-0568","full_name":"Wagner, Uli","first_name":"Uli","id":"36690CA2-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","last_name":"Wagner"}],"doi":"10.1007/s11856-017-1607-7","_id":"610"}
