Abstract

Golan and Sapir \cite{MR3978542} proved that the Thompson's groups FF, TT and VV have linear divergence. In the current paper, we focus on the divergence properties of several generalisation of the Thompson's groups, we first consider the Brown-Thompson's groups FnF_n, TnT_n and VnV_n and found out that these groups also have linear divergence function. We then consider the braided Thompson's groups BFBF and BF^\widehat{BF} and BV^\widehat{BV} together with the result in \cite{Kodama:2020to} we conclude that theses groups have linear divergence.
