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