Title:The K(\pi,1)-conjecture for 3-dimensional Artin groups

Abstract:The K(pi,1)-conjecture, due to Arnold, Brieskorn, Pham, and Thom, predicts that for each Artin group, the space of regular orbits of a canonical action of the associated Coxeter group is a classifying space for this Artin group. We sketch a proof of the K(pi,1)-conjecture for all 3-dimensional Artin groups, which is based on a new notion of combinatorial non-positive curvature. We will explain how such combinatorial non-positive curvature can be used to prove asphericity of spaces. This is joint work with Piotr Przytycki.

  • Introduction to Artin groups and K(pi,1)-conjecture

    Abstract:A hyperplane arrangement in C^n is the manifold obtained by removing a collection of affine complex dimension one hyperplanes from C^n. Despite the simplicity of the definition and the long history of studying them, even basic questions on their fundamental groups still remain open. One important scenario of studying, is that the collection of hyperplanes has extra symmetry - namely t...

  • The K(pi,1)-conjecture for Artin groups via combinatorial non-positive curvature

    Abstract:The K(pi,1)-conjecture for reflection arrangement complements, due to Arnold, Brieskorn, Pham, and Thom, predicts that certain complexified hyperplane complements associated to infinite reflection groups are Eilenberg MacLane spaces. We establish a close connection between a very simple property in metric graph theory about 4-cycles and the K(pi,1)-conjecture, via elements of non-posi...
