辫子、偏序集和正交概型

Braids, posets and orthoschemes

Tom Brady, Jon McCammond

摘要:

在这篇文章中,我们研究了分次偏序集的序复形在一个度量下的曲率性质,我们称之为“正交方案度量”。除了其他的结果,我们刻画了哪些秩4偏序集有CAT(0)正交方案复形,并通过将这个定理应用于标准偏序集和与四生成元Artin群相关的复形,我们能够证明5-弦辫群是紧致非正曲空间的基本群。

英文摘要:

In this article we study the curvature properties of the order complex of a graded poset under a metric that we call the ``orthoscheme metric''. In addition to other results, we characterize which rank 4 posets have CAT(0) orthoscheme complexes and by applying this theorem to standard posets and complexes associated with four-generator Artin groups, we are able to show that the 5-string braid group is the fundamental group of a compact nonpositively curved space.
