We propose a definition of Coxeter-Dynkin algebras of canonical type generalising the definition as a path algebra of a quiver. Moreover, we construct two tilting objects over the squid algebra - one via generalised APR-tilting and one via…
Let F be a finite field. We prove that the cohomology algebra with coefficients in F of a right-angled Artin group is a strongly Koszul algebra for every finite graph ${\Gamma}$. Moreover, the same algebra is a universally Koszul algebra…
We generalise the notion of a separating intersection of links (SIL) to give necessary and sufficient criteria on the defining graph $\Gamma$ of a right-angled Coxeter group $W_\Gamma$ so that its outer automorphism group is large: that is,…
We present a method for computing the number of epimorphisms from a finitely-presented group G to a finite solvable group \Gamma, which generalizes a formula of G\"aschutz. Key to this approach are the degree 1 and 2 cohomology groups of G,…
Let $D$ be the incidence graph of the projective plane over $\FF_3$. The Artin group of the graph $D$ maps onto the bimonster and a complex hyperbolic reflection group $\Gamma$ acting on 13 dimensional complex hyperbolic space $Y$. The…
A group $G$ is said to be just infinite if $G$ itself is infinite but all proper quotients of $G$ are finite. We show that a Coxeter group $W_\Gamma$ is just infinite if and only if $\Gamma$ is isomorphic to one of the following graphs:…
We consider presentations that were derived in \cite{BaumeisterNeaimeRees} for the interval groups associated with proper quasi-Coxeter elements of the Coxeter group $W(D_n)$. We use combinatorial methods to derive alternative presentations…
We study the automorphisms of a graph product of finitely-generated abelian groups W. More precisely, we study a natural subgroup Aut* W of Aut W, with Aut* W = Aut W whenever vertex groups are finite and in a number of other cases. We…
We prove the Farrell-Jones fibered isomorphism conjecture for several classes of Artin groups of finite and affine types. As a consequence, we compute explicitly the surgery obstruction groups of the finite type pure Artin groups.
Let $\Gamma\subset\mathbb{Q}^*$ be a finitely generated subgroup and let $p$ be a prime such that the reduction group $\Gamma_p$ is a well defined subgroup of the multiplicative group $\mathbb{F}_p^*$. We prove an asymptotic formula for the…
We define the braid groups of a two-dimensional orbifold and introduce conventions for drawing braid pictures. We use these to realize the Artin groups associated to the spherical Coxeter diagrams A_n, B_n=C_n and D_n and the affine…
In a 2015 paper we have defined a map from the set of conjugacy classes in a Weyl group W to the set of irreducible representations of W (its image parametrizes the strata of a reductive group with Weyl group W). In this paper we provide…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a 2-dimensional or a three-generator Artin group $A$ to be (virtually) cocompactly cubulated, in terms of the defining graph of $A$.
We calculate the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel-Renz invariant $\Sigma^1(G)$ for even Artin groups $G$ with underlying graph $\Gamma$ such that if there is a closed reduced path in $\Gamma$ with all labels bigger than 2 then the length of such path…
We prove that for any affine variety S defined over Q there exist Shephard and Artin groups G such that a Zariski open subset U of S is biregular isomorphic to a Zariski open subset of the character variety Hom(G, PO(3))//PO(3). The subset…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite connected graph. The (unlabelled) configuration space $UC^n \Gamma$ of $n$ points on $\Gamma$ is the space of $n$-element subsets of $\Gamma$. The $n$-strand braid group of $\Gamma$, denoted $B_n\Gamma$, is the…
We prove that Artin groups from a class containing all large-type Artin groups are systolic. This provides a concise yet precise description of their geometry. Immediate consequences are new results concerning large-type Artin groups:…
We characterize in terms of characteristic sequences the semigroups corresponding to branches at infinity of plane affine curves $\Gamma$ for which there exists a polynomial automorphism mapping $\Gamma$ onto the axis $x=0$.
In \cite[Section 5, p.32]{Arnold-1998}, Arnold writes: "Classification of singularities of curves can be interpreted in dual terms as a description of 'co-artin' subalgebras of finite co-dimension in the algebra of formal series in a single…
Associated to any uniform finite layered graph Gamma there is a noncommutative graded quadratic algebra A(Gamma) given by a construction due to Gelfand, Retakh, Serconek and Wilson. It is natural to ask when these algebras are Koszul.…
