Connectivity at Infinity for Right Angled Artin Groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
We establish sufficient conditions implying semistability and connectivity at infinity properties for CAT(0) cubical complexes. We use this, along with the geometry of cubical K(π, 1)’s to give a complete description of the higher connectivity at infinity properties of right angled Artin groups. Among other things, this determines which right angled Artin groups are duality groups. Applications to group extensions are also included.

Pushing 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...
متن کاملActions of right-angled Artin groups in low dimensions
We survey the role of right-angled Artin groups in the theory of diffeomorphism groups of low dimensional manifolds. We first describe some of the subgroup structure of right-angled Artin groups. We then discuss the interplay between algebraic structure, compactness, and regularity for group actions on one–dimensional manifolds. For compact one–manifolds, every right-angled Artin group acts fai...
متن کامل2 00 6 On the profinite topology of right - angled Artin groups
In the present work, we give necessary and sufficient conditions on the graph of a right-angled Artin group that determine whether the group is subgroup separable or not. Also, we show that right-angled Artin groups are conjugacy separable. Moreover, we investigate the profinite topology of F 2 × F 2 and of the group L in [22], which are the only obstructions for the subgroup separability of th...

متن کاملAn Introduction to Right-angled Artin Groups
Recently, right-angled Artin groups have attracted much attention in geometric group theory. They have a rich structure of subgroups and nice algorithmic properties, and they give rise to cubical complexes with a variety of applications. This survey article is meant to introduce readers to these groups and to give an overview of the relevant literature. Artin groups span a wide range of groups ...
