short-command for

What is the keyboard short-cut to deleting vertices as seen in the image ? I tried CTRL+Delete that command deletes the edges leaving no face ?

just the "Delete" key for vertices.

If you want to select edges and delete the edge and the vertices I personally hold Shift + Right click - drag to 7 o'clock in the radial menu "Delete Edge", or the Ctrl + Delete as you said before (which I didn't know about until testing it now so thanks!)

EDIT: also you reallllly should state the Software you are using when asking technical questions.

I have a habit of making you guess, it's always going to be Maya, so everyone knows

If you use it a lot, you might wanna make a mel shortcut on your shelf using
performPolyDeleteElements;
Or even assign a hotkey to it.

Or if you delete edges using delete edge from the shift+rmb marking menu it will delete the verts for you, or select all and press delete and it will only get the unconnected verts.
