More precisely, we show that for any non-negative integers b and d there exists an integer h(b, d) such that the following holds. If F is a finite family of subsets of Rd such that βi(∩G)≤b for any G⊊F and every 0 ≤ i ≤ [d/2]-1 then F has Helly number at most h(b, d). Here βi denotes the reduced Z2-Betti numbers (with singular homology). These topological conditions are sharp: not controlling any of these [d/2] first Betti numbers allow for families with unbounded Helly number. Our proofs combine homological non-embeddability results with a Ramsey-based approach to build, given an arbitrary simplicial complex K, some well-behaved chain map C*(K)→C*(Rd).","lang":"eng"}],"quality_controlled":"1","date_updated":"2024-02-28T12:59:37Z","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:46:24Z","user_id":"4435EBFC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"date_published":"2017-10-06T00:00:00Z","editor":[{"last_name":"Loebl","full_name":"Loebl, Martin","first_name":"Martin"},{"last_name":"Nešetřil","first_name":"Jaroslav","full_name":"Nešetřil, Jaroslav"},{"last_name":"Thomas","full_name":"Thomas, Robin","first_name":"Robin"}],"year":"2017","main_file_link":[{"open_access":"1","url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1310.4613v3"}],"oa_version":"Published Version","related_material":{"record":[{"id":"1512","status":"public","relation":"earlier_version"}]},"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-331944479-6"]},"month":"10"}
