A GENERAL SMALL CANCELLATION THEORY

Jonathan P. McCammond · International Journal of Algebra and Computation · 2000

In this article, a generalized version of small cancellation theory is developed which is applicable to specific types of high-dimensional simplicial complexes. The usual results on small cancellation groups are then shown to hold in this new setting with only slight modifications. For example, arbitrary dimensional versions of the Poincaré construction and the Cayley complex are described.
