We study the Linial–Meshulam model of random two-dimensional simplicial complexes. One of our main results states that forp≪n−1a random 2-complexYcollapses simplicially to a graph and, in particular, the fundamental groupπ1(Y) is free andH2(Y)=0, asymptotically almost surely. Our other main result gives a precise threshold for collapsibility of a random 2-complex to a graph in a prescribed number of steps. We also prove that, if the probability parameterpsatisfiesp≫n−1/2+ϵ, whereϵ>0, then an arbitrary finite two-dimensional simplicial complex admits a topological embedding into a random 2-complex, with probability tending to one asn→∞. We also establish several related results; for example, we show that forp<c/nwithc<3 the fundamental group of a random 2-complex contains a non-abelian free subgroup. Our method is based on exploiting explicit thresholds (established in the paper) for the existence of simplicial embeddings and immersions of 2-complexes into a random 2-complex.
