We prove that the group of homeomorphisms of the circle introduced by the author with Justin Moore is of type F ∞ . This makes the group the first example of a type F ∞ group which is nonamenable and does not contain nonabelian free subgroups. To prove our result, we provide a certain generalisation of cube complexes, which we refer to as cluster complexes . We also obtain a computable normal form , or a canonical unique choice of a word for each element of the group.
