Representation stability for the pure cactus group

Algebraic Topology 2015-10-21 v4

Abstract

The fundamental group of the real locus of the Deligne-Mumford compactification of the moduli space of rational curves with nn marked points, the pure cactus group, resembles the pure braid group in many ways. As it is the case for several "pure braid like" groups, it is known that its cohomology ring is generated by its first cohomology. In this note we survey what the FIFI-module theory developed by Church, Ellenberg and Farb can tell us about those examples. As a consequence we obtain uniform representation stability for the sequence of cohomology groups of the pure cactus group.
