Cyclic polytopes and higher Auslander--Reiten theory 1 (English)
[ Abstract ]
In this series of three talks, we expand upon the previous talk given at the seminar and study the relationship between cyclic polytopes and higher Auslander--Reiten theory in more detail.

In the first talk, we focus on cyclic polytopes. We survey important properties of cyclic polytopes, such as different ways to construct them, the Upper Bound Theorem, and their Ramsey-theoretic properties. We then move on to triangulations of cyclic polytopes. We give efficient combinatorial descriptions of triangulations of even-dimensional and odd-dimensional cyclic polytopes, which we will use in subsequent talks. We finally define the higher Stasheff--Tamari orders on triangulations of cyclic polytopes. We give important results on the orders, including Rambau's Theorem, and the equality of the two orders.
