The deleted product space X* of a space X is X × X — △. In (4), I computed the homology groups of the deleted product of a polyhedron in a subcollection (see §2 of this paper for the definition of ) of the finite, contractible, 2-dimensional polyhedra. In the present paper, I show that there is an infinite subcollection of such that the deleted product of each member of has the homotopy type of the 2-sphere.
