Measure equivalence classification of transvection-free right-angled Artin groups
Abstract
We prove that if two transvection-free right-angled Artin groups are measure equivalent, then they have isomorphic extension graphs. As a consequence, two right-angled Artin groups with finite outer automorphism groups are measure equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. This matches the quasi-isometry classification. However, in contrast with the quasi-isometry question, we observe that no right-angled Artin group is superrigid for measure equivalence in the strongest possible sense, for two reasons. First, a right-angled Artin group is always measure equivalent to any graph product of infinite countable amenable groups over the same defining graph. Second, when is nonabelian, the automorphism group of the universal cover of the Salvetti complex of always contains infinitely generated (non-uniform) lattices.
