Abstract

Motivated by the work of Panina and her coauthors on cyclopermutohedron we study a poset whose elements correspond to equivalence classes of partitions of the set {1,,n+1}\{1,\cdots, n+1\} up to cyclic permutations and orientation reversion. This poset is the face poset of a regular CW complex which we call bi-cyclopermutohedron and denote it by QPn+1\mathrm{QP}_{n+1}. The complex QPn+1\mathrm{QP}_{n+1} contains subcomplexes homeomorphic to moduli space of certain planar polygons with n+1n+1 sides up to isometries. In this article we find an optimal discrete Morse function on QPn+1\mathrm{QP}_{n+1} and use it to compute its homology with Z\mathbb{Z} as well as Z2\mathbb{Z}_2 coefficients.
