Abstract

A new definition of an h-vector for cubical polytopes (and complexes) is introduced. It has many properties in common with the well-known h-vector for simplicial polytopes. In particular, it is symmetric, nonnegative and easily computable from a shelling of the polytope. Lower or upper bounds on its components imply corresponding bounds on the face numbers.
