Polytopes

Associahedron

In mathematics, an associahedron Kn is an (n – 2)-dimensional convex polytope in which each vertex corresponds to a way of correctly inserting opening and closing parentheses in a string of n letters, and the edges correspond to single application of the associativity rule. Equivalently, the vertices of an associahedron correspond to the triangulations of a regular polygon with n + 1 sides and the edges correspond to edge flips in which a single diagonal is removed from a triangulation and replaced by a different diagonal. Associahedra are also called Stasheff polytopes after the work of Jim Stasheff, who rediscovered them in the early 1960s after earlier work on them by Dov Tamari. (Wikipedia).

James Stasheff (8/31/22): Homotopy coherence - theme and variations

This survey will be semi-historical and idiosyncratic with the topics covered determined by the knowledge and taste of the authors, but we hope it will provide some links that may not be common knowledge between the various aspects of the theory of homotopy coherence and, in particular, to

Lionel Pournin - Distance, Strong Convexity, Flagness, and Associahedra

One can always transform a triangulation of a convex polygon into another by performing a sequence of edge flips, which amounts to follow a path in the graph G of the associahedron. The least number of flips required to do so is then a distance in that graph whose estimation is instrumenta
