The polyhedral product functor: a method of computation for moment-angle complexes, arrangements and related spaces
Abstract
This article gives a natural decomposition of the suspension of generalized moment-angle complexes or {\it partial product spaces} which arise as {\it polyhedral product functors} described below. In the special case of the complements of certain subspace arrangements, the geometrical decomposition implies the homological decomposition in Goresky-MacPherson \cite{goresky.macpherson}, Hochster\cite{hochster}, Baskakov \cite{baskakov}, Panov \cite{panov}, and Buchstaber-Panov \cite{buchstaber.panov}. Since the splitting is geometric, an analogous homological decomposition for a generalized moment-angle complex applies for any homology theory. This decomposition gives an additive decomposition for the Stanley-Reisner ring of a finite simplicial complex and generalizations of certain homotopy theoretic results of Porter \cite{porter} and Ganea \cite{ganea}. The spirit of the work here follows that of Denham-Suciu in \cite{denham.suciu}.
