It has long been known that the combinatorial properties of a graph $\Gamma$ are closely related to the group theoretic properties of its right angled artin group (raag). It's natural to ask if the graph homomorphisms are similarly related…
We show that one can define and effectively compute Stallings graphs for quasi-convex subgroups of automatic groups (\textit{e.g.} hyperbolic groups or right-angled Artin groups). These Stallings graphs are finite labeled graphs, which are…
Two groups are virtually isomorphic if they can be obtained one from the other via a finite number of steps, where each step consists in taking a finite extension or a finite index subgroup (or viceversa). Virtually isomorphic groups are…
For every $n\geq 1$, the flat braid group $\mathrm{FB}_n$ is an analogue of the braid group $B_n$ that can be described as the fundamental group of the configuration space $$\left\{ \{x_1, \ldots, x_n \} \in \mathbb{R}^n / \mathrm{Sym}(n)…
In this paper, we develop a coarse analogue of treewidth. We prove that a graph $G$ admits a tree-decomposition in which each bag is contained in the union of a bounded number of balls of bounded radius, if and only if $G$ admits a…
The n-string braid group of a graph X is defined as the fundamental group of the n-point configuration space of the space X. This configuration space is a finite dimensional aspherical space. A. Abrams and R. Ghrist have conjectured that…
We investigate the structure of conformally rigid graphs. Graphs are conformally rigid if introducing edge weights cannot increase (decrease) the second (last) eigenvalue of the Graph Laplacian. Edge-transitive graphs and distance-regular…
We prove several rigidity properties for random quotients of mapping class groups of surfaces, namely whose kernel is normally generated by the n-th steps of finitely many independent random walks. Firstly, we generalise a celebrated…
The present paper constructs unbounded quasimorphisms that are invariant under all automorphisms on free products of more than two factors and on graph products of finitely generated abelian groups. This includes many classes of right…
We show that every group $H$ of at most exponential growth with respect to some left invariant metric admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into a finitely generated group $G$ such that $G$ is amenable (respectively, solvable, satisfies a…
We study Artin kernels, i.e. kernels of discrete characters of right-angled Artin groups, and we show that they decompose as graphs of groups in a way that can be explicitly computed from the underlying graph. When the underlying graph is…
In this paper we consider the class of 2-dimensional Artin groups with connected, large type, triangle-free defining graphs (type CLTTF). We classify these groups up to isomorphism, and describe a generating set for the automorphism group…
We consider the question of which right-angled Artin groups contain closed hyperbolic surface subgroups. It is known that a right-angled Artin group $A(K)$ has such a subgroup if its defining graph $K$ contains an $n$-hole (i.e. an induced…
We characterize planar graphs and graph minors among other graph theoretic notions in terms of right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs). For this, we determine all sets of elements in RAAGs with ears as underlying graphs that are exactly the sets…
We give inductive constructions of independent graphs that contain implied nonedges but do not contain any non-trivial rigid subgraphs, or \emph{nucleations}: some of the constructions and proofs apply to 3-dimensional abstract rigidity…
As an extension of a classical tree-partition problem, we consider decompositions of graphs into edge-disjoint (rooted-)trees with an additional matroid constraint. Specifically, suppose we are given a graph $G=(V,E)$, a multiset…
We introduce the class of extended admissible groups, which include both fundamental groups of non-geometric 3-manifolds and Croke-Kleiner admissible groups. We show that the class of extended admissible groups is quasi-isometrically rigid.
We study the geometry of nonrelatively hyperbolic groups. Generalizing a result of Schwartz, any quasi-isometric image of a non-relatively hyperbolic space in a relatively hyperbolic space is contained in a bounded neighborhood of a single…
We study the large-scale geometry of graph braid groups $\mathbb{B}_n(\mathsf{\Gamma})$, viewed as the fundamental groups of discrete configuration spaces $UD_n(\mathsf{\Gamma})$, which are special cube complexes in the sense of…
We demonstrate that the submonoid membership problem and the rational subset membership problem are equivalent in Artin groups. Both these problem are undecidable in a given Artin group if and only if the group embeds the right-angled Artin…
