contents We classify the complementary vectors of doubly Cohen-Macaulay complexes. This proves a conjecture of Swartz, negatively answers a question of Athanasiadis and Tzanaki, and gives new bounds on the number of independent sets in a matroid. Our technique works more generally for certain level quotients of Stanley-Reisner rings, giving new bounds on the face numbers of Buchsbaum* complexes.
