Jan 25, 2016 at 19:05 comment added YCor I can believe so, but I haven't grasped the argument.
Jan 25, 2016 at 18:45 comment added Anton Petrunin @YCor, but the answer is the same.
Jan 25, 2016 at 17:54 comment added YCor I was asking about an injective path, not an injective loop.
Jan 25, 2016 at 17:09 comment added Anton Petrunin @YCor it is a 1-dimensional subcomplex in the triangulation coming from the suspension, but (by obvious reason) it is not subcomplex in the standard triangulation of sphere.
Jan 25, 2016 at 14:57 comment added YCor So, I don't understand your comment. The "double-suspension-equator" is not an injective combinatorial path, is it?
Jan 25, 2016 at 12:58 comment added Anton Petrunin @YCor double suspension over $X$ is the joint $\mathbb{S}^1*X$ and $\mathbb{S}^1$ is its equator.
Jan 25, 2016 at 12:49 comment added YCor What is "double suspension equator"?
Jan 25, 2016 at 11:33 comment added Anton Petrunin @YCor The double suspension over Poincaré sphere is homeomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^5$. The complement of the double-suspension-equator in it is not simply connected.
Jan 25, 2016 at 11:27 comment added YCor Subquestion: does there exist a simplicial complex, homeomorphic to some sphere, and in which there exists an injective combinatorial path (= some consecutive edge with no return) whose complement is not simply connected?
Jan 25, 2016 at 11:25 comment added YCor In the comment you might say that the embedding of the half-line is proper .

Jan 24, 2016 at 23:27 comment added YCor OK... So passing to the 1-point compactification, it yields a sphere in which the complement of some segment is not simply connected.

Jan 24, 2016 at 23:21 comment added Anton Petrunin @YCor the cone is infinite.
Jan 24, 2016 at 23:17 comment added YCor Btw do you define the cone of $X$ from $X\times [0,1]$ by crushing $X\times\{0\}$ to a point, or from $X\times [0,+\infty\mathclose[$?
