Abstract

In this work we formalise the isomorphism between simplicial complexes of dimension $n$ and monotone Boolean functions in $n$ variables, mainly following the definitions and results as introduced by N. A. Scoville. We also take advantage of the AFP representation of ROBDD (Reduced Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams) to compute the ROBDD representation of a given simplicial complex (by means of the isomorphism to Boolean functions). Some examples of simplicial complexes and associated Boolean functions are also presented.
