Incommensurable lattices in Baumslag-Solitar complexes

Abstract

This paper concerns locally finite 2-complexes Xm,nX_{m,n} which are combinatorial models for the Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(m,n)BS(m,n). We show that, in many cases, the locally compact group Aut(Xm,nX_{m,n}) contains incommensurable uniform lattices. The lattices we construct also admit isomorphic Cayley graphs and are finitely presented, torsion-free, and coherent.

v2: 34 pages. The notion of depth profile has been modified slightly to exclude elliptic elements. There is some new exposition with additional references
