Fomin and Shapiro conjectured that the link of the identity in the Bruhat stratification of the totally nonnegative real part of the unipotent radical of a Borel subgroup in a semisimple, simply connected algebraic group defined and split over ${mathbb{R}}$ is a regular CW complex homeomorphic to a ball. The main result of this paper is a proof of this conjecture. This completes the solution of the question of Bernstein of identifying regular CW complexes arising naturally from representation theory having the (lower) intervals of Bruhat order as their closure posets. A key ingredient is a new criterion for determining whether a finite CW complex is regular with respect to a choice of characteristic maps; it most naturally applies to images of maps from regular CW complexes and is based on an interplay of combinatorics of the closure poset with codimension one topology.
