Is a simply connected locally 2-connected complex a union of spheres and planes?

Let $X$ be a (potentially infinite) 2-dimensional simplicial complex. Then each link at a vertex $x\in X$ is a graph. Question. If $X$ is simply connected and each link is 2-connected (in the sense ...

Does anyone know any applications of CW-complexes in graph theory?

As everyone knows :P, a graph is a CW-complex of dimension 1. Knowing that, are there any interesting results in graph theory that arise from working with CW-complexes? And more specifically, in ...

A sufficient condition for attaching squares to a 1 skeleton so that the CW-complex is a 2 - manifold

Suppose we have a finite connected graph $G$, I want to add 2 -cells to $G$ so that the 2 cells have boundaries of length 4 (squares) and so that $G$ is the 1 skeleton of a surface (2-manifold) ...
