Abstract

We prove that the standard Cayley graph of every finite-rank Coxeter system has trivial \(A\)-homotopy groups in all degrees \(j\geq2\). The argument replaces the Coxeter group by the right-angled Coxeter group retaining exactly its commuting relations. Short closed walks lift, and every finite image in the resulting median graph admits a based contraction through graph maps.

A direct lattice-lifting proof checks the exterior basepoint condition and explains why degree one is different. For a finite real reflection group, the theorem establishes the all-degree group comparison for the real 3-parabolic arrangement by combining higher-\(A\) vanishing with the previously known fundamental-group comparison and classical asphericity of the complement.

The right-angled construction, degree-one kernel and classical median-graph results are credited to earlier work. The result concerns \(k=3\), not the general comparison for \(k>3\). This preprint is AI-assisted, self-audited and unrefereed, with no independent review, formal verification or absolute priority claim.
