We show that the homology of the automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group stabilizes under taking products with any right-angled Artin group.
We show that a large class of right-angled Artin groups (in particular, those with planar complementary defining graph) can be embedded quasi-isometrically in pure braid groups and in the group of area preserving diffeomorphisms of the disk…
Generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (GBS groups) are groups that act on trees with infinite cyclic edge and vertex stabilizers. Such an action is described by a labeled graph (essentially, the quotient graph of groups). This paper addresses…
We compute: * the cohomology with group ring coefficients of Artin groups (or actually, of their associated Salvetti complexes), Bestvina-Brady groups, and graph products of groups, * the L^2-Betti numbers of Bestvina-Brady groups and of…
For a large class of groups, we exhibit an infinite-dimensional space of homogeneous quasimorphisms that are invariant under the action of the automorphism group. This class includes non-elementary hyperbolic groups, infinitely-ended…
We study closed, connected, spin 4-manifolds up to stabilisation by connected sums with copies of $S^2 \times S^2$. For a fixed fundamental group, there are primary, secondary and tertiary obstructions, which together with the signature…
Let $k$ be a number field and $G$ be a finite group. Let $\mathfrak{F}_{k}^{G}(Q)$ be the family of number fields $K$ with absolute discriminant $D_K$ at most $Q$ such that $K/k$ is normal with Galois group isomorphic to $G$. If $G$ is the…
Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system, $S$ finite, and let $G_{W}$ be the associated Artin group. One has configuration spaces $Y,\ Y_{W},$ where $G_{W}=\pi_1(Y_{W}),$ and a natural $W$-covering $f_{W}:\ Y\to Y_{W}.$ The Schwarz genus $g(f_{W})$…
The objective of this paper is to detect which combinatorial properties of a regular graph can completely determine the geodesic growth of the right-angled Coxeter or Artin group this graph defines, and to provide the first examples of…
We show that the automorphism groups of right-angled Artin groups whose defining graphs have at least 3 vertices are not relatively hyperbolic. We then show that the outer automorphism groups are not relatively hyperbolic, if they are not…
Given a graph $\Gamma$, the right-angled Artin group $A(\Gamma)$ is given by the presentation $\langle u \in V(\Gamma) \mid [u,v]=1, \ \{u,v\} \in E(\Gamma) \rangle$. The Embedding Problem in right-angled Artin groups asks, given two finite…
We develop a theory of \emph{strongly quasiconvex subgroups} of an arbitrary finitely generated group. Strong quasiconvexity generalizes quasiconvexity in hyperbolic groups and is preserved under quasi-isometry. We show that strongly…
It is shown that for graph groups (right-angled Artin groups) the conjugacy problem as well as a restricted version of the simultaneous conjugacy problem can be solved in polynomial time even if input words are represented in a compressed…
We begin by establishing two fundamental results on standard parabolic subgroups of virtual Artin groups. We first show that a standard parabolic subgroup is naturally isomorphic to a virtual Artin group. Second, we prove that the…
A graph $G$ covers a graph $H$ if there exists a locally bijective homomorphism from $G$ to $H$. We deal with regular covers in which this locally bijective homomorphism is prescribed by an action of a subgroup of ${\rm Aut}(G)$. Regular…
In this article we construct asynchronous and sometimes synchronous automatic structures for amalgamated products and HNN extensions of groups that are strongly asynchronously (or synchronously) coset automatic with respect to the…
This paper is a short survey on four basic questions on Artin-Tits groups: the torsion, the center, the word problem, and the cohomology ($K(\pi,1)$ problem). It is also an opportunity to prove three new results concerning these questions:…
We prove new vanishing results on the growth of higher torsion homologies for suitable arithmetic lattices, Artin groups and mapping class groups. The growth is understood along Farber sequences, in particular, along residual chains. For…
We determine the image of the Artin groups of types B and D inside the Iwahori-Hecke algebras, when defined over finite fields, in the semisimple case. This generalizes earlier work on type A by Brunat, Magaard and Marin. In this…
We prove using a novel random matrix model that all right-angled Artin groups have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that strongly converge to the regular representation. We deduce that this result applies also to:…
