Abstract: Let H be a simple undirected graph. The family of all matchings of H forms a simplicial complex called the matching complex of H. Here , we give a classification of all graphs with a Gorenstein matching complex. Also we study when the matching complex of H is Cohen-Macaulay and, in certain classes of graphs, we fully characterize those graphs which have a Cohen-Macaulay matching complex. In particular, we characterize when the matching complex of a graph with girth at least 5 or a complete graph is Cohen-Macaulay.
