Structures of optimal discrete gradient vector fields on surface with one or two critical cells

Abstract

We describe all possible structures of discrete vector field (discrete Morse functions) with minimal number of critical cells on the regular CW-complex for the 2-disk (1 cell), the 2-sphere (2 cells), the cylinder (2 cells) and Mobius band (2 cells).
