The collapsibility of some CAT(0) simplicial complexes of dimension 3

Abstract

We study the collapsibility of finite simplicial complexes of dimension 3 endowed with a CAT(0) metric. Our main result states that, under an additional hypothesis, finite simplicial 3-complexes endowed with a CAT(0) metric collapse to a point through CAT(0) subspaces.
