Filling Length in Finitely Presentable Groups
Filling length measures the length of the contracting closed loops in a null-homotopy. The filling length function of Gromov for a finitely presented group measures the filling length as a function of length of edge-loops in the Cayley 2-complex. We give a bound on the filling length function in terms of the log of an isoperimetric function multiplied by a (simultaneously realisable) isodiametr...
متن کاملAll finitely presentable groups from link complements and Kleinian groups
Klein defined geometry in terms of invariance under groups actions; here we give a discrete (partial) converse of this, interpreting all (finitely presentable) groups in terms of the geometry of hyperbolic 3-manifolds (whose fundamental groups are, appropriately, Kleinian groups). For G∗ a Kleinian group of isometries of hyperbolic 3-space H, with MG∗ ∼= H3/G∗ a non-compact N -cusped orientable...
متن کاملPerfect and Acyclic Subgroups of Finitely Presentable Groups
We consider acyclic groups of low dimension. To indicate our results simply, let G′ be the nontrivial perfect commutator subgroup of a finitely presentable group G. Then def(G) ≤ 1. When def(G) = 1, G′ is acyclic provided that it has no integral homology in dimensions above 2 (a sufficient condition for this is that G′ be finitely generated); moreover, G/G′ is then Z or Z. Natural examples are ...
متن کاملMultivariable Twisted Alexander Polynomial for Hyperbolic Three–manifolds with Boundary
We consider a sign–determined Reidemeister torsion with multivariables for a hyperbolic three–dimensional manifold with cusps. Using a cut and paste argument, we prove that this Reidemeister torsion is a polynomial invariant when provided with appropriate conditions on the topology of the manifold and SL2(C)representations of its fundamental group. Under such assumptions, it is proved that this...
متن کاملTwisted Alexander Polynomial for the Lawrence-krammer Representation
In this paper, we prove that the twisted Alexander polynomial for the Lawrence-Krammer representation of the braid group B4 is trivial. This gives an answer for the problem whether the twisted Alexander polynomial for given faithful representations is always non-trivial.
