Uniqueness of homogeneous CAT(0) polygonal complexes

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We provide a combinatorial condition on a finite connected graph, L, for which there exists a unique CAT(0) polygonal complex such that the link at each vertex is L. Under the further assumption that the polygons have an even number of sides we prove that this condition is also necessary, and that there are either one or a continuum of non-isomorphic such complexes.
