Gaussian Groups Are Torsion Free
Assume that G is a group of fractions of a cancellative monoid where lower common multiples exist and divisibility has no infinite descending chain. Then G is torsion free. The result applies in particular to all finite Coxeter type Artin groups. Finding an elementary proof for the fact that Artin’s braid groups are torsion free has been reported to be a longstanding open question [9]. The exis...
متن کاملThe Structure of Torsion Abelian Groups given by Presentations by Peter Crawley and Alfred W, Hales
If each of the elements in R involves only one generator in X, then G(X, R) is a direct sum of cyclic groups. On the other hand, if G is any abelian group, then GÇ=G(X, i?), where each element in R involves at most three generators in X; indeed this isomorphism results if we take X = G and R equal to the set of all elements in F o of the form x+y~ z, where z = x+y in G. Our purpose here is to i...
متن کاملTorsion in Profinite Completions of Torsion-free Groups
LET G be a residually-finite torsion-free group. Is Gthe profinite completion of G-torsion free? This question was asked in [CKL] where it was shown that if G is a finitely generated metabelian-by-finite group then indeed G is torsion free. On the other hand Evans [E] showed that if G is not finitely generated then it is possible that G has torsion. His example is also metabelian. In this note ...
متن کاملOn Endomorphisms of torsion-Free hyperbolic Groups
Let H be a torsion-free δ-hyperbolic group with respect to a finite generating set S. Let g1, . . . , gn and g1∗, . . . , gn∗ be elements of H such that gr∗ is conjugate to gr for each r = 1, . . . , n. There is a uniform conjugator if and only if W (g1∗, . . . , gn∗) is conjugate to W (g1, . . . , gn) for every word W in n variables and length up to a computable constant depending only on δ, ♯...
متن کامل`2–torsion of Free-by-cyclic Groups
We provide an upper bound on the `2–torsion of a free-bycyclic group, −ρ(2)(F oΦ Z), in terms of a relative train-track representative for Φ ∈ Aut(F). Our result shares features with a theorem of Lück–Schick computing the `2–torsion of the fundamental group of a 3–manifold that bers over the circle in that it shows that the `2–torsion is determined by the exponential dynamics of the monodromy. ...
