Basic Questions on Artin-Tits groups
This paper is a short survey on four basic questions on Artin-Tits groups: the torsion, the center, the word problem, and the cohomology (K(π, 1) problem). It is also an opportunity to prove three new results concerning these questions: (1) if all free of infinity Artin-Tits groups are torsion free, then all Artin-Tits groups will be torsion free; (2) If all free of infinity irreducible non-sph...
متن کاملA conjecture about Artin-Tits groups
We conjecture that the word problem of Artin–Tits groups can be solved without introducing trivial factors ss or ss. Here we make this statement precise and explain how it can be seen as a weak form of hyperbolicity. We prove the conjecture in the case of Artin–Tits groups of type FC, and we discuss various possible approaches for further extensions, in particular a syntactic argument that work...
متن کاملTHE TITS CONJECTURE IS TRUE FOR ARTIN GROUPS OF TYPE Bn
The Tits conjecture claims that the subgroup generated by the squares of the standard generators of an Artin group can be presented using only the obvious relations. We show that the Tits conjecture is true for the Artin groups of type Bn.
متن کاملParabolic subgroups of Garside groups
A Garside monoid is a cancellative monoid with a finite lattice generating set; a Garside group is the group of fractions of a Garside monoid. The family of Garside groups contains the Artin-Tits groups of spherical type. We generalise the well-known notion of a parabolic subgroup of an Artin-Tits group into that of a parabolic subgroup of a Garside group. We also define the more general notion...
متن کاملThe Tits Alternative for Non-spherical Pride Groups
Pride groups, or “groups given by presentations in which each defining relator involves at most two types of generators”, include Coxeter groups, Artin groups, triangles of groups, and Vinberg’s groups defined by periodic paired relations. We show that every non-spherical Pride group that is not a triangle of groups satisfies the Tits alternative.
