Sigma 1 of PL-homeomorphism groups

Group Theory 2015-07-02 v1

Abstract

I survey the known results about the invariant Sigma 1 of groups of PL-homeomorphisms of a compact interval and supplement them with new results about Sigma 1 of PL-homeomorphism groups of a half line or a line. The proofs are based on the Cayley-graph definition of the invariant.
