On 2-dimensional CW-complexes with a single 2-cell

Sushil Jajodia

Vol. 80 (1979), No. 1, 191–203
Abstract

In this paper we are interested in finite connected 2-dimensional CW-complexes, each with a single 2-cell. We show any two such complexes have the same homotopy type if their fundamental groups are isomorphic. In fact, there is a homotopy equivalence inducing any isomorphism of the fundamental groups. We also study the homotopy factorizations of such spaces into finite sums.
