A recursive construction of an acyclic matching on the independence complex of a graph with a simplicial vertex
Sucharita Barik, Anupam Mondal, Sajal Mukherjee
We provide a recursive construction of an acyclic matching (also known as a gradient vector field, an equivalent notion to a discrete Morse function) on the independence complex of…
