Given a graph $G$ on the vertex set $V$, the {em non-matching complex} of $G$, $NM_k(G)$, is the family of subgraphs $G subset G$ whose matching number $ u(G)$ is strictly less than $k$. As an attempt to generalize the result by Linusson, Shareshian and Welker on the homotopy types of $NM_k(K_n)$ and $NM_k(K_{r,s})$ to arbitrary graphs $G$, we show that (i) $NM_k(G)$ is $(3k-3)$-Leray, and (ii) if $G$ is bipartite, then $NM_k(G)$ is $(2k-2)$-Leray. This result is obtained by analyzing the homology of the links of non-empty faces of the complex $NM_k(G)$, which vanishes in all dimensions $dgeq 3k-4$, and all dimensions $d geq 2k-3$ when $G$ is bipartite. As a corollary, we have the following rainbow matching theorem which generalizes the result by Aharoni et. al. and Driskos theorem: Let $E_1, dots, E_{3k-2}$ be non-empty edge subsets of a graph and suppose that $ u(E_icup E_j)geq k$ for every $i e j$. Then $E=bigcup E_i$ has a rainbow matching of size $k$. Furthermore, the number of edge sets $E_i$ can be reduced to $2k-1$ when $E$ is the edge set of a bipartite graph.
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph and $n$ a positive integer. Let $I_n(G)$ be the abstract simplicial complex whose simplices are the subsets of $V$ that do not contain an independent set of size $n$ in $G$. We study the collapsibility numbers of the complexe
Let $K$ be a simplicial complex on vertex set $V$. $K$ is called $d$-Leray if the homology groups of any induced subcomplex of $K$ are trivial in dimensions $d$ and higher. $K$ is called $d$-collapsible if it can be reduced to the void complex by seq
We focus on counting the number of labeled graphs on $n$ vertices and treewidth at most $k$ (or equivalently, the number of labeled partial $k$-trees), which we denote by $T_{n,k}$. So far, only the particular cases $T_{n,1}$ and $T_{n,2}$ had been s
The matching complex of a graph $G$ is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in $G$. In the last few years the matching complexes of grid graphs have gained much attention among the topological combinatorists. In 2017, Braun and Hough ob
Let $mathscr{G}_{n,beta}$ be the set of graphs of order $n$ with given matching number $beta$. Let $D(G)$ be the diagonal matrix of the degrees of the graph $G$ and $A(G)$ be the adjacency matrix of the graph $G$. The largest eigenvalue of the nonneg
