First order tangent complex is studied by Siddiqui in [11]. There he has introduced morphisms for the first order tangent complex and connected this complex to the famous Grassmannian complex. In this paper we will extend the discussion of tangent complex for the second order. To do this we will introduce second order tangent group, denoted by TB (F, and form a tangent complex of order. Then we will write morphisms in order to connect this complex with the famous Grassmannian complex.

INTRODUCTION In [8] Siddiui uses configurations to relate the Grassmannian complex (see. where d : (x 1,..., x m d : C m (X C m 1 (X m ( 1 m (x 1,..., ˆx i,..., x m to both infinitesimal and tangential complexes. In one hand he connected the Grassmannian complex to the variant of Cathelineau s complexes by introducing homomorphisms for both weight and weight 3. He also proved the commutativity of corresponding diagrams. On the other hand he presented the crossratio of four points and the famous Siegel s cross-ratio identity in tangential settings and also proved that the Goncharov s projected five term relation can also be defined for tangent 91

2 9 Sadaqat Hussain and Raziuddin Siddiqui group TB (F. By using these constructions he defined maps to link the Grassmannian sub complex and Cathelineau s tangential complex for both weight and 3. To connect Grassmannian sub complex to Cathelineau s tangent complex C 5 ( F[ε] d C 4 ( F[ε] d C 3 ( F[ε] TB (F ε F F for n = he gives the morphisms τ 1,ε and τ 0,ε. For n = 3 he uses morphisms τ3,ε,τ3 1,ε and τ 3 0,ε to relate F C 6 ( 3 F[ε] d C 5 ( 3 F[ε] d C 4 ( 3 F[ε] to the Cathelineau s tangent complex of weight 3 (see chapter 4 of [8]. He studied these complexes for the first order tangent group but in the appendix of [8] he discussed a little bit about the second order tangent group TB (F. There he gives the morphisms between Grassmannian complex and Cathelineau s complex by taking only pure terms occurred in the definition of maps and neglected the non pure terms. But he himself does not consider it as an authentic work because there is no logic behind ignoring the non pure terms that s why he put that work in the appendix of his dissertation. However that work gives us a guideline to move toward higher order. In this work we have tried to study the polyloagrithmic complexes in tangential settings for second order. The second section is devoted for the essential prerequisites and basic definitions as usual. In third section we have discussed second order tangent groups. Where we have tried to define the second order tangent groups of weight and 3,denoted by TB (F and TB 3 (F respectively. We also have mentioned the relations exist in these groups. Then we moved forward to describe the geometry of configurations of TB (F, which includes the construction of Grassmannian complex for tangential settings in higher order, building of the cross ratio and triple- ratio in TB (F. Then we move to write morphisms τ and τ for n = and τ 3, τ 3 and τ 3 for n = 3 in order to connect 0,ε 1,ε 0,ε 1,ε,ε the Grassmannian complex to the the Cathelineau s tangent complex. At last we write the proofs of the commutativity of resulting diagrams (see theorems (4.,(7.1and (7... NOTATIONS AND PRELIMINARIES.1. Configurations. Let C m (X be a free abelian group generated by elements (x 1,..., x m X m.for any group G acting on a non empty set X the elements of the set G/X m, consisting of the m-tuples, is called configurations of X where G is acting diagonally on X m (see[5]. A configuration (x i x 1,..., ˆx i,..., x m of vectors in V n+1 / x i (V n+1 be a vector space of dimension n + 1is said to be a projective configuration and defined as a quotient space of dimension n formed by the projection of x j V n ; j i, projected from C m+1 (n + 1 to C m (n.. Grassmannian Complex. This complex is introduced by a famous German mathematician Hermann Grassmann. The importance of this complex is because of helping in the investigation of homology of general linear groups. let X be any non empty set. Consider C m (X be a free abelian group whose generators are configurations of m points, then

From this bi-complex we can form many sub-complexes like C m+ (n + d C m+1 (n + 1 d C m (n or C m+ (n d C m+1 (n d C m (n These sub-complexes known as Grassmannian Sub-Complexes.3. Tangential Configuration Space. For any field F with zero characteristic, we define the ring of νth truncated polynomial by polynomial F[ε] ν. We choose l = F[ε] ν := F[ε]/ε ν where ν 1. First we will define n F[ε] ν as an affine space over the the ring of truncated a 1 a. n F. \, l ε := n F and upto l ε n := a 1,ε ν 1 a,ε ν 1. a n,ε ν 1 a n n F, then one can write (see [?] l = l + l ε ε + l ε ν 1ε ν 1 = a 1 + a 1,ε ε + + a 1,ε ν 1ε ν 1 a + a,ε ε + + a,ε ν 1ε ν 1.. a n + a n,ε ε + + a n,ε ν 1ε ν 1 a 1,ε a,ε.. a n,ε n F[ε] ν Consider the free abelian group C m ( n F[ε] ν whose generators are the configurations (l 1,..., l m of m-vectors in n F[ε] ν. For these configurations, we can define the differential map d as d : C m+1 ( n F[ε] ν C m ( n F[ε] ν where d is defined in (.1. another differential map d with projection can be defined as d : C m+1 ( n F[ε] ν C m ( n 1 F[ε] ν

Let ω detv n be the volume element in a n- dimensional vector space V n (see section 3 of [5], we define a n n determinant (x 1,..., x n = ω, x 1 x... x n ; x i V n For simplicity, we consider the the following cases.3.1. Case n = and ν = 3. In this situation, we can write (x p, x q = (x p, x q ε 0 + (x p, x q ε 1ε + (x p, x q ε ε where (x p, x q ε 0 = (x p, x q, (x p, x q ε 1ε = (x p, x q,ε + (x p,ε, x q and (x p, x q ε = (x p, x q,ε + (x p,ε, x q,ε + (x p,ε, x q.3.. Case n = 3 and ν = 3. (x p, x q, x r = (x p, x q, x r ε 0 + (x p, x q, x r ε 1ε + (x p, x q, x r ε ε where (x p, xq, xr ε 0 = (x p, x q, x r, (x p, xq, xr ε 1ε = (x p, x q, x r,ε + (x p, x q,ε, x r + (x p,ε, x q, x r and (x p, x q, x r ε = (x p, x q, x r + (x p, x q, x r,ε + (x p, x q,ε, x r + (x p,ε, x q, x r + (x p, x q, x r,ε + (x p, x q,ε, x r,ε + (x p, x q,ε, x r + (x p,ε, x q, x r,ε + (x p,ε, x q,ε, x r + (x p,ε, x q, x r.4. Cross-ratio in F[ε]. Let (x 0, x 1, x, x 3 C 4( F[ε] ν be the configuration of four points, then their cross ratio is r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 = (x 0, x 3 (x 1, x (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 (. 3 But expansion of r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 over the truncated polynomial ring F[ε] 3 is r(x0, x 1, x, x 3 = ( r ε 0 + r ε ε + r ε ε (x0, x 1, x, x 3 (. 4 which gives us the following values(see [8] and [9]. Put ν = 1, we get r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 = r ε 0(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 = r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 = (x 0, x 3 (x 1, x (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 (. 5 r ε (x 0, x 1, x, x 3 = { (x 0, x 3 (x 1, x ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 { (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 (. 6 r ε (x 0, x 1, x, x 3 ={(x 0, x 3 (x 1, x ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 r ε (x 0, x 1, x, x 3 {(x 0, x (x 1, x 3 ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 r(x 0, x 1, x, x 3 {(x 0, x (x 1, x 3 ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 (. 7 where (ab ε = a ε b + ab ε and (ab ε = a ε b + a ε b ε + ab ε

5 Grassmannian Complex and Second Order Tangent Complex First Order Tangent Group. For any a, a F and a; a ] = [a+a ε] [a] Z[F[ε] ], we define the first order tangent Group, denoted by TB (F, is a Z-module generated by the elements of the form a; a ] [F[ε] ] an quotient by the expression where a; a ] b; b ] ( b b + a ; a a(1 b + b(1 a ; ] ( a(1 b b(1 a 1 b 1 a ; ] ( ] 1 b 1 a, a, b 0, 1, a b; (a, a F (. 8 ( b = ab a ( b 1 b ; = (1 ba (1 ab a a 1 a (1 a ( a(1 b = b(1 ba a(1 ab b(1 a (b(1 a 3. SECOND ORDER TANGENT GROUPS First of all we will give definition of TB (F and will try to construct the cross ratio, triple ratio and identities of the vectors in the configuration space C m ( n F[ε] 3 for m = 4,..., 7 ; n =, 3. We will also give the relations satisfied by TB (F and will prove the five term relation. The tangent group of order TB (F is a Z-module whose generators are the elements of the form a; a, a ] [F[ε] 3 ], where a; a, a ] = [a + a ε + a ε ] [a], (a, a, a F and quotient by the expression (see appendix of [8] where where and a; a, a ] b; b, b ] ( ( b b b + a ;, a a ( a(1 b a(1 b + b(1 a ;, b(1 a ( b = a b aba aa b + b(a ; a a 3 = ( a(1 b b(1 a ] 1 b 1 a ; ( a(1 b b(1 a ( 1 b, 1 a ( ] 1 b 1 a ], a, b 0, 1, a b (3. 9 ( 1 b A = 1 a (1 a ; 3 B a 3 (1 b 3 (3. 10 A = (1 a(1 ba (1 a b (1 aa b + (1 b(a B =(b a 3 bb a 3 + bb a (b a bb a + (b a + bab a ba b +b 3 aa b 3 (a b 3 a b aa + b (a + b a ( Functional Equations of TB (F.

See Lemma (4.4 of [9] for proof. 4. DILOGARATHMIC COMPLEXES OF TANGENT GROUPS Cathelineau formed a complex using tangents groups known as tangent complex and we have another well known complex known as Grassmannian complex. In his work Sidddiqui connected these two complexes by defining maps τ 0,ε and τ 1,ε for n = ; ν =. In this section we also connect the complexes mentioned above for the case n = ; ν = 3. Let us denote C m ( F[ε] 3 is a free abelian group whose generators are the configuration (x0,..., x m 1 F[ε] 3 for any affine space F[ε] 3 over F[ε] 3 then we have the following Grassmannian complex Consider the following diagram... C 5 ( F[ε] 3 d C 4 ( F[ε] 3 d C 3 ( F[ε] 3 m d : (x0,..., x m ( 1 i (x0,..., ˆx i,..., x m C 5 ( d F[ε] 3 C 4 ( F[ε] 3 d C 3 ( F[ε] 3 (D where ɛ τ 1,ε TB (F ε τ 0,ε F F F : a; b 1, b ] b a b 1 (1 a + b a (1 a + b 1 a (1 a + b a b 1 b a (1 a + b 1 ; a, b (1 a 1, b F (4. 1 Now we come to define the vertical maps τ 0,ɛ and τ 1,ɛ of the diagram. The map τ 0,ɛ can be written as the sum of two maps where τ 1 (x 0,x 1, x = and ( ( 1 i (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 τ (x0, x 1, x = ( 1 i (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 τ 0,ɛ = τ 1 + τ (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+ (x i, x i+1 (x i+1, x i+ (x i, x i+ ɛ (x i, x i+ (x i, x i+ ɛ (x i, x i+, i mod 3 (4. 13, i mod 3 (4. 14

7 Grassmannian Complex and Second Order Tangent Complex 97 The map τ 1 carries the elements of C 3 ( F[ε] 3 into F F and the image of the elements of C 3 ( F[ε] 3 under the map τ is in F. τ 1,ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 = r(x 0,..., x 3 ; r ɛ (x0,..., x 3, r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 ] (4. 15 where r(x 0,..., x 3, r ɛ (x0,..., x 3 and r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 are the respective coefficients of the ε 0, ε 1 and ε in the cross ratio. First we have to show the maps τ and τ are both well 0,ɛ 1,ɛ defined. Since we have defined τ as the cross ratio of four points so it is not necessary 1,ɛ to check. Therefore we only check for τ. 0,ɛ Lemma 4.1. τ 0,ɛ does not depend upon the volume form ω by the vectors. Proof. According to the definition we can write τ as 0,ɛ ( 1 i (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+ (x i+1, x i+ + ( 1 i (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+ ɛ (x i, x i+ (x i, x i+ ɛ (x i, x i+ ; i mod 3 Due to the homogeneity between the factors of the terms of above expression it is not possible to get a different value by replacing the volume element ω by λω. This shows that the map τ is independent of the volume element. 0,ɛ Theorem 4.. The diagram (D commutes.i.e. τ 0,ɛ d = ɛ τ 1,ɛ Proof. We have already defined the map τ 1,ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 as τ 1,ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 = r(x 0,..., x 3 ; r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3, r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 ] For simplicity we put a = r(x 0,..., x 3, b 1 = r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 and b = r ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 then τ 1,ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 = a; b 1, b ] Here we evaluate value of the expression b a b 1 a. Since we have b 1 = r ε (l 0,..., l 3 = { (x 0, x 3 (x 1, x ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 r(x 0,..., x 3 { (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 ε (x 0, x (x 1, x 3 Dividing by a and using a shorthand (xi, x j ε = (x i x j ε, we have ( b a b 1 (x a = 0 x3 ε + (x 1 x ε (x 0 x ε (x 1 x 3 ε (x 0 x 3 (x 1 x (x 0 x (x 1 x 3 (4. 16 (x 0 x 3 ε (x 0 x 3 (x 1 x ε (x 1 x + (x 0 x ε (x 0 x + (x 1 x 3 ε (4. 17 (x 1 x 3 Similarly we can evaluate the expression as b 1 a b ( 1 (x (1 a = 0 x ε + (x 1 x 3 ε (x 0 x 1 ε (x 1 x 3 ε (x 0 x (x 1 x 3 (x 0 x 1 (x x 3 (x 0 x ε (x 0 x (x 1 x 3 ε (x 1 x 3 + (x 0 x 1 ε (x 0 x 1 + (x x 3 ε (x x 3 (4. 18

Therefore by using homomorphic property we can split this composition into two parts to explain them separately ɛ τ 1,ɛ (x 0,..., x 3 = ( ( 1 ɛ a; b1, b ] + ɛ a; b1, b ] (4. 19 where 1 carries the elements of TB ɛ (F into F F and carries the elements of ɛ TB (F into F.

First part can be written as τ 1 d(x 0,..., x 3 { =Ãlt (013 ( 1 i ( (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+1 (x i, x i+1 ɛ (x i, x i+ (x i, x i+1 (x i+1, x i+ ; i mod 3 (4. where Ãlt (013 denotes the alternation sum. The expansion of inner expression give us a total of six terms. From which three will be of the form (x i,x j ε (x i,x j x y and other three will of the form (x i,x j ε (x i,x j x y. Using the property a b c = a b a c, terms will become double and form of the terms will be (x i,x j ε (x i,x j x and (x i,x j ε (x i,x j y. Then we will expand the alternation sum which gives us a total of 48 terms. After simplification we will obtain an expression identical with ( The second part of τ d(x 0,ɛ 0,..., x 3 can be written as

From which six will be of the form (x i,x j ε (x i,x j x and remaining six will be of the form (x i,x j ε (x i,x j y. Applying the alternation sum number of trms will increase up to 48. After cancellation of like terms with opposite signs we obtain an expression identical to ( Since the sum of ( 4. 0 and ( 4. 1 represents the value of ɛ τ 1,ɛ which is equal to the sum of the values of τ 1 d(x 0,..., x 3 and τ d(x 0,..., x 3.

To prove above result we have to show τ d = 0 and τ d = 0 which requires 0,ε 1,ε direct calculations. 5. TRILOGARATHMIC COMPLEXES OF TANGENT GROUPS This section is devoted to discuss about the suitable maps which connects the Grassmannian sub-complex and Cathelineau s tangential complex of second order for the case weight 3. We also show the commutativity of the resulting diagram Definition of TB 3 (F. The second order tangent group for weight 3 is denoted by TB 3 (F is a Z-module over the truncated polynomial ring F[ε] 3 whose generators are the elements of the form a; a, a ] [F[ε] 3 ], where a; b 1, b ] = [a + b 1 ε + b ε ] [a], (a, b 1, b F and quotient by the ker where where the map is defined as : [F[ε] 3 ] ( TB (F F (F B (F ( a; b 1, b ] c + u [v] = b a b 1 (1 a c b a (1 a + b 1 a c (1 a +u (1 v v + b a b 1 b a (1 a + b 1 (5. 4 (1 a 5..

The square right to the diagram (A is commutes, i.e. c τ 3 0,ε d = ε τ 3 1,ε

12 10 Sadaqat Hussain and Raziuddin Siddiqui Proof. The map τ 3 0,ε is defined in (5.8 which is too lengthy for calculations therefore we write the map τ 3 0,ε as sum of two maps τ(1 and τ ( then we evaluate τ (1 d and τ ( d separately. First we find τ (1 d(l0,..., l 4 = τ3 0,ε 4 ( 1 i (l0,..., ˆl i,..., l 4 ( 3 = Ãlt (0134 ( 1 i (l 0,..., ˆl i,..., l 3 ε (l 0,..., ˆl i,..., l 3, i mod 4 (l 0,..., ˆl i,..., l 3 ε (l 0,..., ˆl i,..., l 3 (l 0,..., ˆl i+1,..., l 3 (l 0,..., ˆl i+,..., l 3 (l 0,..., ˆl i+3,..., l 3 (l 0,..., ˆl i+,..., l 3 (5. 36 where Ãlt (0134 represents the alternation sum. We start our calculation from the expansion of the inner sum. The inner sum gives us four summands and each summand can further be simplified by using the relations p (q+r = p q+ p r ; p (qr = p q+ p r and p q r = p q p r in order to obtain 4 terms. And after applying the alternation sum we have a total of 10 terms containing 60 terms of the form p ε q r and remaining 60 of the form p ε q r. After that we combine the terms having common factor (l i,l j,l k (l i,l j,l k. For example the terms having common factor (l 4,l,l 3 ε (l 4,l,l 3 will be (l 4, l, l 3 ε (l 4, l, l 3 ( (l 0, l 3, l 4 (l 0, l, l 3 (l 0, l 3, l 4 (l 0, l, l 4 (l 0, l, l 4 (l 0, l, l 3 + (l 1, l 3, l 4 (l 1, l, l 4 (l 1, l 3, l 4 (l 1, l, l 3 + (l 1, l, l 4 (l 1, l, l 3 an the terms with common factor (l 1,l,l 3 ε (l 1,l,l 3 will be (l1, l, l 3 ε ( (l 0, l, l 3 (l 0, l 1, l (l 0, l, l 3 (l 0, l 1, l 3 (l 0, l 1, l 3 (l 0, l 1, l (l 1, l, l 3 + (l, l 3, l 4 (l 1, l 3, l 4 (l, l 3, l 4 (l 1, l, l 4 + (l 1, l 3, l 4 (l 1, l, l 4 and so on. This completes the calculation of first part τ (1 d. The second part τ ( d can be written as = Ãlt ( ( 1 i 4 j=0 j i ( (l 0,..., ˆl j,..., l 3 ε (l 0,..., ˆl j,..., l 3 ε (l 0,..., ˆl j,..., l 3 (l 0,..., ˆl j,..., l 3, i mod 4 (5. 37 By expanding the inner sum and wedge product for i = 0,..., 3 ; j = 0,..., 3, we get eight terms of the form a b c then pass each sum through Ãlt (0134 the terms will increase up to 40. This is the final value of τ ( d(l 0,..., l 4. Now we come to evaluate ε τ 3 1,ε.

Where ( contains 384 terms of type (l i,l j,l k ε (l i,l j,l k l m and (l i,l j,l k ε (l i,l j,l k l m. In the same way we can calculate the value of ( for i = 0, 1,, 3 and get a total of = 190 terms. Then we recombine the terms having common factor (l i,l j,l k (l i,l j,l k. e.g.

After direct calculation we get an expression equal to (5.37. Theorem 5.6. The left part of the diagram (A commutes, i.e. τ 3,ε ε = d τ 3 1,ε Proof. The map τ 3,ε gives us a large number of terms but most of them are identical due to symmetry an remains only 10 different terms. Due to the long calculations we will use the technique of combinatorics. From the definition ( 5. 30, we have τ 3 (l,ε 0,..., l 5 = 45 Alt 6 r3 (l 0,..., l 5 ; r 3,ε (l0,..., l 5, r 3,ε (l 0,..., l 5 ] 3 (5. 44 From now we use a short hand,that is,we write r 3 (l i l j l k l l l m l n instead of r 3 (l i, l j, l k, l l, l m, l n and (li l j l k ε in place of (l i l j l k ε. In other words we ignore and commas for simplicity. Now ε τ 3,ε (l 0... l 5 = 45 Alt 6 + { r3 (l 0... l 5 ; r 3,ε(l0... l 5, r 3,ε (l 0 l 1 l l 3 l 4 l 5 ] r 3(l 0... l 5 r 3,ε (l 0... l 5 r 3 (l 0... l 5 r 3,ε (l 0... l 5 r 3 (l 0... l 5 [r 3(l 0... l 5 ] (5. 45 We are going to evaluate the value of r 3,ε (l 0...l 5 r 3 (l 0...l 5 r 3,ε (l 0...l 5 r 3 (l 0...l 5.
