A notion familiar to commutative algebraists but which has not received as much attention from combinatorialists as the Cohen-Macaulay property is the notion of a Golod ring. Recently Jollenbeck introduced a criterion on simplicial complexes reminiscent of shellability called the strong gcd-condition and he together with the author proved that it implies Golodness of the associated Stanley-Reisner ring. The two algebraic notions were earlier tied together by Herzog Reiner and Welker who showed that if k Av is sequentially Cohen-Macaulay where Av is the Alexander dual of A then k A is Golod. In this paper we present a combinatorial companion of this result namely that if Av is non-pure shellable then A satisfies the strong gcd-condition. Moreover we show that all implications just mentioned are strict in general but that they are equivalences if A is a flag complex. To Anders Bjorner on his sixtieth birthday 1 Introduction Let A be a finite simplicial complex with vertex set V vi . vn and let k be a field. Recall that the Stanley-Reisner ring associated to A is the quotient k A k xi . xn I where Ia is the ideal in the polynomial ring k x1 . xn generated by the monomials xi1 . xir for which vi1 . vir ị A.
