Abstract

Let $κ \leq 0$ , and let $X$ be a complete, locally finite $CAT (κ)$ polyhedral $2$ –complex $X$ , each face with constant curvature $κ$ . Let $E$ be a closed, rectifiably connected subset of $X$ with trivial first singular homology. We show that $E$ , under the induced path metric, is a complete $CAT (κ)$ space.
