Abstract |
|
We describe how an Ore category with a Garside family can be used to construct a classifying space for its fundamental group(s). The construction simultaneously generalizes Brady’s classifying space for braid groups and the Stein–Farley complexes used for various relatives of Thompson’s groups. It recovers the fact that Garside groups have finite classifying spaces. We describe the categories and Garside structures underlying certain Thompson groups. The indirect product of categories is introduced and used to construct new categories and groups from known ones. As an illustration of our methods we introduce the group braided and show that it is of type . |
