Abstract
For any right-angled Artin group , Charney--Stambaugh--Vogtmann showed that the subgroup generated by Whitehead automorphisms and inversions acts properly and cocompactly on a contractible space . In the present paper we show that any finite subgroup of fixes a point of . This generalizes the fact that any finite subgroup of fixes a point of Outer Space, and implies that there are only finitely many conjugacy classes of finite subgroups in .
