The topology of the independence complex
We introduce a large self-dual class of simplicial complexes for which we show that each member complex is contractible or homotopy equivalent to a sphere. Examples of complexes in this class include independence and dominance complexes of forests, pointed simplicial complexes, and their combinatorial Alexander duals.
