Rigidity of graph products of abelian groups

Group Theory 2019-02-07 v1

Abstract

We show that if GG is a group and GG has a graph-product decomposition with finitely-generated abelian vertex groups, then GG has two canonical decompositions as a graph product of groups: a unique decomposition in which each vertex group is a directly-indecomposable cyclic group, and a unique decomposition in which each vertex group is a finitely-generated abelian group and the graph satisfies the T0T_0 property. Our results build on results by Droms, Laurence and Radcliffe.
