Abstract
In his study of the polynomial Hirsch conjecture, Santos introduced the problem of determining the largest possible diameter of a strongly connected d-dimensional simplicial complex on n vertices. We give a precise answer for any fixed d and sufficiently large n.

Joint work with Olaf Parczyk, Silas Rathke and Tibor Szabó.
