Estimates for homological dimension of configuration spaces of graphs

Jacek Świątkowski (2001)

Colloquium Mathematicae

We show that the homological dimension of a configuration space of a graph Γ is estimated from above by the number b of vertices in Γ whose valence is greater than 2. We show that this estimate is optimal for the n-point configuration space of Γ if n ≥ 2b.

Extension of complexes of groups

André Haefliger (1992)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Complexes of groups G ( X ) over ordered simplicial complexes X are generalizations to higher dimensions of graphs of groups. We first relate them to complexes of spaces by considering their classifying space B G ( X ) . Then we develop their homological algebra aspects. We define the notions of homology and cohomology of a complex of groups G ( X ) with coefficients in a G ( X ) -module and show the existence of free resolutions. We apply those notions to study extensions of complexes of groups with constant or abelian kernel....
