Fixed points of endomorphisms of graph groups

Group Theory 2013-10-29 v1

Abstract

It is shown, for a given graph group GG, that the fixed point subgroup Fixφ\,\varphi is finitely generated for every endomorphism φ\varphi of GG if and only if GG is a free product of free abelian groups. The same conditions hold for the subgroup of periodic points. Similar results are obtained for automorphisms, if the dependence graph of GG is a transitive forest.
