Coxeter groups are virtually special
In this paper we prove that every finitely generated Coxeter group has a finite index subgroup that is the fundamental group of a special cube complex. Some consequences include: Every f.g. Coxeter group is virtually a subgroup of a right-angled Coxeter group. Every word-hyperbolic Coxeter group has separable quasiconvex subgroups. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

متن کاملInfinite Coxeter Groups Are Virtually Indicable
An infinite group G is called indicable (resp. virtually indicable) if G (resp. a subgroup of finite index in G) admits a homomorphism onto Z. This is a powerful property for a group to have; for example in the context of infinite fundamental groups of aspherical 3-manifolds it remains one of the outstanding open questions to prove such groups are virtually indicable. To continue on the 3-manif...
متن کاملVirtually Compact Special Hyperbolic Groups Are Conjugacy Separable
We prove that any word hyperbolic group which is virtually compact special (in the sense of Haglund and Wise) is conjugacy separable. As a consequence we deduce that all word hyperbolic Coxeter groups and many classical small cancellation groups are conjugacy separable. To get the main result we establish a new criterion for showing that elements of prime order are conjugacy distinguished. This...
متن کاملJSJ-Decompositions of Coxeter Groups over Virtually Abelian Splittings
The idea of “JSJ-decompositions” for 3-manifolds began with work of Waldhausen and was developed later through work of Jaco, Shalen and Johansen. It was shown that there is a finite collection of 2-sided, incompressible tori that separate a closed irreducible 3-manifold into pieces with strong topological structure. Sela introduced the idea of JSJ-decompositions for groups, an idea that has flo...
متن کاملGraph manifolds with boundary are virtually special
Let M be a graph manifold. We prove that fundamental groups of embedded incompressible surfaces in M are separable in π1M , and that the double cosets for crossing surfaces are also separable. We deduce that if there is a ‘sufficient’ collection of surfaces in M , then π1M is virtually the fundamental group of a special non-positively curved cube complex. We provide a sufficient collection for ...
