Abstract
The matching complex of a graph G is a simplicial complex whose simplices are matchings in G. In the last few years the matching complexes of grid graphs have gained much attention among the topological combinatorists. In 2017, Braun and Hough obtained homological results related to the matching complexes of 2�n grid graphs. Further in 2019, Matsushita showed that the matching complexes of 2 � n grid graphs are homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres. In this article we prove that the matching complexes of 3 � n grid graphs are homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres. We also give the comprehensive list of the dimensions of spheres appearing in the wedge. © The authors. Released under the CC BY-ND license (International 4.0).
