Discrete Morse-Bott theory for CW complexes

Combinatorics 2017-11-30 v1 Geometric Topology

Abstract

We derive a discrete analogue of Morse-Bott theory on CW complexes and use this discrete Morse-Bott function to do some Conley theory analysis. It turns out that our discrete Morse-Bott theory is indeed a generalization of Forman's discrete Morse theory.
