Abstract: Let $F$ be a discrete Morse function on a simplicial complex $L$. We construct a discrete Morse function $Delta(F)$ on the barycentric subdivision $Delta(L)$. The constructed function $Delta(F)$ "behaves the same way" as $F$, i. e. has the same number of critical simplexes and the same gradient path structure.
