Topological realizations
One may construct the topological realization XΛ of a k-graph Λ (see [KKQS]) by analogy with the geometric realization of a simplicial set. Let I = [0, 1]. For i = 1, . . . , n and ℓ = 0, 1 define εℓ
i : In−1 → In by
εℓ
i (x1, . . . , xn−1) = (x1, . . . , xi−1, ℓ, xi, . . . , xn−1).
Then the topological realization is the quotient of
k
Qn(Λ) × In by the equivalence relation generated by (λ, εℓ
i (x)) ∼ (Fℓ i (λ), x) where
λ ∈ Qn(Λ) and x ∈ In−1. We prove that there is a natural isomorphism Hn(Λ) ∼ = Hn(XΛ).
