An associahedral set is a combinatorial object generated by Stasheff associahedra {Kn} and equipped with appropriate face and degeneracy operators. Associahedral sets are similar in many ways to simplicial or cubical sets. In this paper we give a formal definition of an associahedral set, discuss some naturally occurring examples and construct an explicit geometric diagonal ∆ : C∗(Kn) −→ C∗(Kn)...
