Salvetti complex, spectral sequences and cohomology of Artin groups

Filippo Callegaro — 2014

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

The aim of this short survey is to give a quick introduction to the Salvetti complex as a tool for the study of the cohomology of Artin groups. In particular we show how a spectral sequence induced by a filtration on the complex provides a very natural and useful method to study recursively the cohomology of Artin groups, simplifying many computations. In the last section some examples of applications are presented.

Homology computations for complex braid groups

Filippo CallegaroIvan Marin — 2014

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Complex braid groups are the natural generalizations of braid groups associated to arbitrary (finite) complex reflection groups. We investigate several methods for computing the homology of these groups. In particular, we get the Poincaré polynomial with coefficients in a finite field for one large series of such groups, and compute the second integral cohomology group for all of them. As a consequence we get non-isomorphism results for these groups.
