Bilipschitz versus quasi-isometric equivalence for higher rank lamplighter groups

Group Theory 2014-07-07 v1 Metric Geometry

Abstract

We describe a family of finitely presented groups which are quasi-isometric but not bilipschitz equivalent. The first such examples were described by the first author and are the lamplighter groups FZF \wr \mathbb{Z} where FF is a finite group; these groups are finitely generated but not finitely presented. The examples presented in this paper are higher rank generalizations of these lamplighter groups and include groups that are of type FnF_n for any nn.
