On the cover ideals of chordal graphs

From MaRDI portal
Publication:5214023



Abstract: The independence complex of a chordal graph is known to be shellable due to a result of Van Tuyl and Villarreal. This is equivalent to the fact that cover ideal of a chordal graph has linear quotients. We use this result to obtain recursive formulas for the Betti numbers of cover ideals of chordal graphs. Also, we give a new proof of their result which yields different shellings of the independence complex.
