Cohomology of Finite and Affine Type Artin Groups Over Abelian Representation

by Filippo Callegaro

The classical theory of braids is deeply connected with the theory of reflection groups and there are many relations between Artin groups and Coxeter groups. It turns out that the classifying spaces of Artin groups of finite type are affine varieties, the complement of the singularities associated to Coxeter groups. In order to study the topology of the Milnor fiber of these non-isolated singularities together with the monodromy action it is useful...
