The Salvetti complex and the little cubes

Dai Tamaki (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

For a real central arrangement 𝒜 , Salvetti introduced a construction of a finite complex Sal ( 𝒜 ) which is homotopy equivalent to the complement of the complexified arrangement in [Sal87]. For the braid arrangement 𝒜 k - 1 , the Salvetti complex Sal ( 𝒜 k - 1 ) serves as a good combinatorial model for the homotopy type of the configuration space F ( , k ) of k points in C , which is homotopy equivalent to the space C 2 ( k ) of k little 2 -cubes. Motivated by the importance of little cubes in homotopy theory, especially in the study of...

Topology of arrangements and position of singularities

Enrique Artal Bartolo (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

This work contains an extended version of a course given in Arrangements in Pyrénées. School on hyperplane arrangements and related topics held at Pau (France) in June 2012. In the first part, we recall the computation of the fundamental group of the complement of a line arrangement. In the second part, we deal with characteristic varieties of line arrangements focusing on two aspects: the relationship with the position of the singular points (relative to projective curves of some prescribed degrees)...
