A homotopy theoretical generalization of the Bestvina-Brady construction
A homotopy theoretical generalization of the Bestvina-Brady construction
By using the notion of polyhedral products (X,A)^K, we recognise the Bestvina–Brady construction [4] as the fundamental group of the homotopy fibre of (S^1,*)^L-->S^1,
where L is a flag complex. We generalise their construction by studying the homotopy fibre F of (S^1,*)^L--> (S^1,*)^K for an arbitrary simplicial complex L and K an (m-1)-dimensional simplex. For a particular class of simplicial complexes L, we describe the homology of F, its fixed points, and maximal invariant quotients for coordinate subgroups of Z^m.
This generalises the work of Leary and Saadetoğlu [13] who studied the case when m=1.

Abstract
By using the notion of polyhedral products (X,A)^K, we recognise the Bestvina–Brady construction [4] as the fundamental group of the homotopy fibre of (S^1,*)^L-->S^1,
where L is a flag complex. We generalise their construction by studying the homotopy fibre F of (S^1,*)^L--> (S^1,*)^K for an arbitrary simplicial complex L and K an (m-1)-dimensional simplex. For a particular class of simplicial complexes L, we describe the homology of F, its fixed points, and maximal invariant quotients for coordinate subgroups of Z^m.
This generalises the work of Leary and Saadetoğlu [13] who studied the case when m=1.
