We give a explicit construction of a $2$- dimensional $\Delta$-complex that is a strong deformation retract of the complement of a Fermat curve of degree $d$ in the complex projective space.
Due to a result by Androtti and Frankel \cite{andreotti19}, we can see that the complement o a complex projective curve has the homotopy type of a $2$-dimensional CW complex. However, no general method has been given to compute explicitly this complex. Here we give a explicit construction of a $2$- dimensional $\Delta$-complex that is a strong deformation retract of the complement of a Fermat curve of degree $d$ in the complex projective space.
The retraction is performed in several steps, using the branched cover structure of the Fermat curves to the degree $1$ case.

\section{Definition of the problem}
Given $C$ a proyective curve in $\CC\PP^2$, we know that the complement of the curve has the homotopy type of a CW-complex of real dimension $2$, our problem is how to find an effective model for said CW-complex.
Given $C$ a proyective curve in $\CC^2$, Libgober gave in \cite{libgober1986} a construction of a $2-$ dimensional CW-complex that is a deformation retract of its complement. However, it is not clear how to extend that construction to the projective case (that is a curve in $\CC\PP^2$).
In particular, we will focus on the case of smooth curves.
In this work, we give a different construction to produce a specific $\Delta$-complex that is a deformation retract of the complement of a Fermat curve (which is equivalent to the case of general smooth curves).

The path followed by each point in $\CC\PP^2\setminus C_d$ . in the retraction will be given by the path followed by a representative in $M_d$ as it is retracted to $S_d$. The class representatives we choose in $\CC\PP^2\setminus C_d$ will be such that the coordinates to the $d$ power add up to $1$. Since this choice is not unique, we are now going to see that if we apply the retraction $r=r_2\circ r_1$ to two such representatives, they are sent to the same class by $r$.
Let $p=[x:y:z]\in\CC\PP^2\setminus C_d$ and $\lambda p=[\lambda x:\lambda y: \lambda z]$ be two representatives of some point $p$, since both representatives must be such that $x^d+y^d+z^d=1$, necessarily $\lambda$ is a $d-$th root of unity.

We start with $S_2$. First, we can observe that, from all points in $\CC$, the only ones whose square power is real are either the real numbers of the pure imaginary numbers.
