Abstract

We show that all three golden ratio Thompson's groups FτF_\tau, TτT_\tau and VτV_\tau embed in the asynchronous rational group. We prove properties of the Cayley graph of the monoid M=L,R:LR2=RL2M = \langle L, R : LR^2 = RL^2 \rangle, whose topological full group is VτV_\tau. In particular, we compute a distance function for the Cayley graph of the monoid MM. Additionally, we prove that this Cayley graph is hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov. Our analysis reveals that the horofunction boundary of this graph is homeomorphic to a space resembling a Cantor-like set, with additional isolated points situated between each pair of breakpoints.
