Abstract:
We will talk about the embedding of real moment angle complex ZK(D1,S0) in a surface when K is a subcomplex of the boundary of an n-gon. When K is the full boundary of an n-gon, we define an action of the cyclic group Cn on the polyhedral product and show that ZK(D1,S0)/Cn is a closed, compact and orientable surface, and give a formula for calculating it's genus. We also describe the invertible natural transformations of polyhedral products in terms of the underlying simplicial complex K.
