Abstract
The structure of the Quillen complex of GL_n(q) at p, denoted A_p(GL_n(q)), is known when p is the characteristic prime, and when p|q − 1. In particular, in these cases, it is known that A_p(GL_n(q)) is simply connected whenever m_p(GL_n(q)) ≥ 3. In this paper it is shown that m_p(GL_n(q)) ≥ 3 implies A_p(GL_n(q)) is simply connected for all primes.
