SUMMARY:K(pi\,1)-property of complements to curve arrangements on surfaces

DESCRIPTION:It is a non-trivial question to understand when a complement t
 o a collection of curves on a complex surface is of type K(pi\,1). We will
  explain that such a property (which is rather rare by itself)  holds in c
 ases when one can construct on the surface a non-positively curved Kaehler
  metric with conical singularities of angles less than 2pi along the colle
 ction of curves.\n\nThis is a joint work with Anton Petrunin.\n
