It has been shown by R. H. Bing [1] that if AT is a simplicial complex which triangulates a 3-ball, a is a spanning 1-simplex of K (i.e. o-n 8K=do) and Kir) simplicially collapses (where Km is an rth derived subdivision), then the bridge number of o, br (a), is less than or equal to 2r +1. The proof is to be found in
