Abstract

The independence complex of a chordal graph is known to be shellable which is equivalent to the fact that cover ideal of a chordal graph has linear quotients. We use this result to obtain recursive formulas for the Betti numbers of cover ideals of chordal graphs. Moreover, we give a new proof of such result which yields different shellings of the independence complex.
