Projective resolutions for graph products

Group Theory 2009-09-25 v1

Abstract

Let Γ\Gamma be a finite graph together with a group GvG_v at each vertex vv. The graph product G(Γ)G(\Gamma) is obtained from the free product of all GvG_v by factoring out by the normal subgroup generated by {g1h1gh;gGv,hGw}\{g^{-1}h^{-1}gh; g\in G_v, h\in G_w\} for all adjacent v,wv,w. In this note we construct a projective resolution for G(Γ)G(\Gamma) given projective resolutions for each GvG_v, and obtain some applications.
