Divergence and Quasimorphisms of Right-angled Artin Groups
We give a group theoretic characterization of geodesics with superlinear divergence in the Cayley graph of a right-angled Artin group AΓ with connected defining graph. We use this to prove that the divergence of AΓ is linear if Γ is a join and quadratic otherwise. As an application, we give a complete description of the cut points in any asymptotic cone of AΓ. We also show that every non-abelia...

متن کاملSurface Subgroups of Right-Angled Artin Groups
We consider the question of which right-angled Artin groups contain closed hyperbolic surface subgroups. It is known that a right-angled Artin group A(K) has such a subgroup if its defining graph K contains an n-hole (i.e. an induced cycle of length n) with n ≥ 5. We construct another eight “forbidden” graphs and show that every graph K on ≤ 8 vertices either contains one of our examples, or co...
متن کاملTopology of Random Right Angled Artin Groups
In this paper we study topological invariants of a class of random groups. Namely, we study right angled Artin groups associated to random graphs and investigate their Betti numbers, cohomological dimension and topological complexity. The latter is a numerical homotopy invariant reflecting complexity of motion planning algorithms in robotics. We show that the topological complexity of a random ...
متن کاملPushing fillings in right-angled Artin groups
We define a family of quasi-isometry invariants of groups called higher divergence functions, which measure isoperimetric properties “at infinity.” We give sharp upper and lower bounds on the divergence functions for right-angled Artin groups, using different pushing maps on the associated cube complexes. In the process, we define a class of RAAGs we call orthoplex groups, which have the proper...
