Second mod homology of Artin groups
arXiv:1702.03585 · doi:10.2140/agt.2018.18.547
Abstract
In this paper, we compute the second mod homology of an arbitrary Artin group, without assuming the conjecture. The key ingredients are (A) Hopf's formula for the second integral homology of a group and (B) Howlett's result on the second integral homology of Coxeter groups.
