2-associahedra

Abstract: For any

r g e q 1

and

m a t h b f n i n m a t h b b Z_{g e q 0}^{r} s e t m i n u s m a t h b f 0

we construct a poset

W_{m a t h b f n}

called a 2-associahedron. The 2-associahedra arose in symplectic geometry, where they are expected to control maps between Fukaya categories of different symplectic manifolds. We prove that the completion

w i d e h a t W_{m a t h b f n}

is an abstract polytope of dimension

| m a t h b f n | + r - 3

. There are forgetful maps

W_{m a t h b f n} o K_{r}

, where

K_{r}

is the

(r - 2)

-dimensional associahedron, and the 2-associahedra specialize to the associahedra (in two ways) and to the multiplihedra. In an appendix, we work out the 2- and 3-dimensional associahedra in detail.
