Cambrian Lattices

For an arbitrary finite Coxeter group W , we define the family of Cambrian lattices for W as quotients of the weak order on W with respect to certain lattice congruences. We associate to each Cambrian lattice a complete fan, which we conjecture is the normal fan of a polytope combinatorially isomorphic to the generalized associahedron for W . In types A and B, we obtain, by means of a fiber-pol...

The Cambrian explosion

The sudden appearance of fossils that marks the so-called 'Cambrian explosion' has intrigued and exercised biologists since Darwin's time. In On the Origin of Species, Darwin made it clear that he believed that ancestral forms 'lived long before' their first fossil representatives. While he considered such an invisible record necessary to explain the level of complexity already seen in the foss...

The Cambrian Explosion

The Precambrian genesis plus Cambrian explosion scenario also implies a perplexing view of a major evolutionary radiation: a long period of cryptic speciation with increasing developmental complexity and anatomical sophistication, yet without substantial behavioural or ecological modification or diversification, followed by a sudden increase in morphological and ecological innovation.
