چکیده

A generalized triangle group is a group that can be presented in the form G = x, y | x p = y q = w(x, y) r = 1 where p, q, r ≥ 2 and w(x, y) is a cyclically reduced word of length at least 2 in the free product Z p * Z q = x, y | x p = y q = 1. Rosenberger has conjectured that every generalized triangle group G satisfies the Tits alternative. It is known that the conjecture holds except possibly when the

Free subgroups in certain generalized triangle groups of type (2, m, 2)

A generalized triangle group is a group that can be presented in the form G = 〈 x, y | x = y = w(x, y) = 1 〉 where p, q, r ≥ 2 and w(x, y) is an element of the free product 〈 x, y | x = y = 1 〉 involving both x and y. Rosenberger has conjectured that every generalized triangle group G satisfies the Tits alternative. It is known that the conjecture holds except possibly when the triple (p, q, r)...

The Tits Alternative for Tsaranov's Generalized Tetrahedron Groups

A generalized tetrahedron group is defined to be a group admitting the following presentation: 〈x, y, z | x = y = z = W p 1 (x, y) = W q 2 (y, z) = W r 3 (x, z) = 1〉, 2 ≤ l,m, n, p, q, r, where each Wi(a, b) is a cyclically reduced word involving both a and b. These groups appear in many contexts, not least as fundamental groups of certain hyperbolic orbifolds or as subgroups of generalized tri...

The Tits alternative for generalised tetrahedron groups

A generalised tetrahedron group is the colimit of a triangle of groups whose vertex groups are generalised triangle groups and whose edge groups are finite cyclic. We prove an improved Spelling Theorem for generalised triangle groups which enables us to compute the precise Gersten-Stallings angles of this triangle of groups, and hence obtain a classification of generalised tetrahedron groups ac...

The 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.
