$p$-anisotropy on the moment curve for homology manifolds and cycles
We prove that the Gorensteinification of the face ring of a cycle is totally $p$-anisotropic in characteristic $p$. In other words, given an appropriate Artinian reduction, it contains no nonzero $p$-isotropic elements. Moreover, we prove that the linear system of parameters can be chosen corresponding to a geometric realization with points on the moment curve. In particular, this implies that the parameters do not have to be chosen very generically.
