Explicit symmetric DGLA models of 3-cells

Algebraic Topology 2021-07-01 v1

Abstract

We give explicit formulae for differential graded Lie algebra (DGLA) models of 3-cells. In particular, for a cube and an nn-faceted banana-shaped 3-cell with two vertices, nn edges each joining those two vertices and nn bi-gon 2-cells, we construct a model symmetric under the geometric symmetries of the cell fixing two antipodal vertices. The cube model is to be used in forthcoming work for discrete analogues of differential geometry on cubulated manifolds.
