Abstract: | The connectivity at infinity of a finitely generated Coxeter group W is completely determined by topological properties of its nerve L (a finite simplicial complex). For example, W is simply connected at infinity if and only if L and the subcomplexes (where ranges over all simplices in L) are simply connected. This characterization extends to locally finite buildings. Received: May 3, 2001 |
