Topology of Configuration Space of Two Particles on a Graph, I

Kathryn Barnett, Michael Farber

Published 2009-03-12Version 1

In this paper we study the homology and cohomology of confguration spaces of two distinct particles on a graph. Our main tool is intersection theory for cycles in graphs. We obtain an explicit description of the cohomology algebra of the configuration space in the case of planar graphs.
