poset underlying associahedra
As described in Deligne-Mumford space, for any , is a -dimensional manifold with boundary and corners which parametrizes nodal trees of disks with marked points, one of them distinguished (we think of the undistinguished resp. 1 distinguished marked points as "input" resp. "output" marked points). As shown in [Auroux, Ex. 2.6], is homeomorphic to a closed interval, with one endpoint corresponding to a collision of the first two inputs and the other corresponding to a collision of . Work out which polygon/polyhedron are equal to.
