Abstract

In this paper we consider the Grassmannian complex of projective configurations in weight 2 and 3, and Cathelineau's infinitesimal polylogarithmic complexes. Our main result is a morphism of complexes between the Grassmannian complex and the associated infinitesimal polylogarithmic complex. In order to establish this connection we introduce an FF-vector space β2D(F)\beta^D_2(F), which is an intermediate structure between a \varmathbbZ\varmathbb{Z}-module B2(F)\mathcal{B}_2(F) (scissors congruence group for FF) and Cathelineau's FF-vector space β2(F)\beta_2(F) which is an infinitesimal version of it. The structure of β2D(F)\beta^D_2(F) is also infinitesimal but it has the advantage of satisfying similar functional equations as the group B2(F)\mathcal{B}_2(F). We put this in a complex to form a variant of Cathelineau's infinitesimal complex for weight 2.
