Quasi-Isometries for certain Right-Angled Coxeter Groups

Group Theory 2024-02-26 v5

Abstract

We construct the JSJ tree of cylinders TcT_c for finitely presented, one-ended, two-dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups (RACGs) splitting over two-ended subgroups in terms of the defining graph of the group, generalizing the visual construction by Dani and Thomas given for hyperbolic RACGs. Additionally, we prove that TcT_c has two-ended edge stabilizers if and only if the defining graph does not contain a certain subdivided K4K_4. By use of the structure invariant of TcT_c introduced by Cashen and Martin, we obtain a quasi-isometry-invariant of these RACGs, essentially determined by the defining graph. Furthermore, we refine the structure invariant to make it a complete quasi-isometry-invariant in case the JSJ decomposition of the RACG does not have any rigid vertices.
