Discrete configuration-space models for framed cube complexes
Let be a cube complex such that, if , every -cube in is the face of some -cube. Assume moreover that is framed away from some codimension- subspace. For a positive integer , let denote the -fold subdivision of .
Discrete configuration-space conjecture. For all , the ordered configuration space of points in is homotopy equivalent to the th discrete ordered configuration space of .
This conjecture proposes a common discrete model for ordered configuration spaces in sufficiently subdivided pure-dimensional cube complexes with a well-defined frame, extending the surface models discussed in the paper. The supplied text does not state whether the conjecture has been proved or refuted.
