Abstract

Let AΓA_\Gamma be an Artin group with defining graph Γ\Gamma. We introduce the notion of AΓA_\Gamma being extra-large relative to a family of arbitrary parabolic subgroups. This generalizes a related notion of AΓA_\Gamma being extra-large relative to two parabolic subgroups, one of which is always large type. Under this new condition, we show that AΓA_\Gamma satisfies the K(π,1)K(\pi,1) conjecture whenever each of the distinguished subgroups do. In addition, we show that AΓA_\Gamma is acylindrically hyperbolic under only mild conditions.
