Residual Properties of Graph Manifold Groups

چکیده
Let f : M → N be a continuous map between closed irreducible graph manifolds with infinite fundamental group. Perron and Shalen [PS99] showed that if f induces a homology equivalence on all finite covers, then f is in fact homotopic to a homeomorphism. Their proof used the statement that every graph manifold is finitely covered by a 3-manifold whose fundamental group is residually p for every prime p. We will show that this statement regarding graph manifold groups is not true in general, but we will show how to modify the argument of Perron and Shalen to recover their main result. As a by-product we will determine all semidirect products Z n Zd which are residually p for every prime p.

On Some of the Residual Properties of Finitely Generated Nilpotent Groups
In recent years, the RFRS condition has been used to analyze virtual fibering in 3-manifold topology. Agol’s work shows that any 3-manifold with zero Euler characteristic satisfying the RFRS condition on its fundamental group virtually fibers over the circle. In this note we will show that a finitely generated nilpotent group is either virtually abelian or is not virtually RFRS. As a corollary,...

In this paper, a sparse representation based manifold learning method is proposed. The construction of the graph manifold in high dimensional space is the most important step of the manifold learning methods that is divided into local and gobal groups. The proposed graph manifold extracts local and global features, simultanstly. After construction the sparse representation based graph manifold,...
متن کاملResidual Properties of Fibered and Hyperbolic 3–manifolds
We study the residual properties of geometric 3–manifold groups. In particular, we study conditions under which geometric 3–manifold groups are virtually residually p for a prime p, and conditions under which they are residually torsion–free nilpotent. We show that for every prime p, every geometric 3–manifold group is virtually residually p. We show that geometric 3– manifold groups are virtua...
متن کاملSoil and Rock Slope Stability Analysis based on Numerical Manifold Method and Graph Theory
Limit equilibrium method, strength reduction method and Finite Difference Methods are the most prevalently used methods for soil and rock slope stability analysis. However, it can be mention that those have some limitations in practical application. In the Limit equilibrium method, the constitutive model cannot be considered and many assumptions are needed between slices of soil and rock. The s...
متن کاملProfinite properties of graph manifolds
LetM be a closed, orientable, irreducible, geometrizable 3-manifold. We prove that the profinite topology on the fundamental group of π1(M) is efficient with respect to the JSJ decomposition of M . We go on to prove that π1(M) is good, in the sense of Serre, if all the pieces of the JSJ decomposition are. We also prove that if M is a graph manifold then π1(M) is conjugacy separable. A group G i...
