  3. Abstract:
  4. We consider d-dimensional simplicial complexes which can be PL embedded in the 2d-dimensional Euclidean space. In short, we show that in any such complex, for any three vertices, the intersection of the link-complexes of the vertices is linklessly embeddable in the (Formula presented.)-dimensional Euclidean space. In addition, we use similar considerations on links of vertices to derive a new asymptotic upper bound on the total number of d-simplices in an (continuously) embeddable complex in 2d-space with n vertices, improving known upper bounds, for all (Formula presented.). Moreover, we show that the same asymptotic bound also applies to the size of d-complexes linklessly embeddable in the (Formula presented.)-dimensional space. © 2017 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC
