Abstract

For a finite simplicial graph Γ\Gamma, let A(Γ)A(\Gamma) denote the right-angled Artin group on Γ\Gamma. Recently Kim and Koberda introduced the extension graph Γe\Gamma^e for Γ\Gamma, and established the Extension Graph Theorem: for finite simplicial graphs Γ1\Gamma_1 and Γ2\Gamma_2 if Γ1\Gamma_1 embeds into Γ2e\Gamma_2^e as an induced subgraph then A(Γ1)A(\Gamma_1) embeds into A(Γ2)A(\Gamma_2). In this article we show that the converse of this theorem does not hold for the case Γ1\Gamma_1 is the complement of a tree and for the case Γ2\Gamma_2 is the complement of a path graph.
