Random groups are not n-cubulated

Abstract

A group GG has FWnFW_n if every action on a nn-dimensional CAT(0)\mathrm{CAT}(0) cube complex has a global fixed point. This provides a natural stratification between Serre's FAFA and Kazhdan's (T)(T). For every nn, we show that random groups in the plain words density model have FWnFW_n with overwhelming probability. The same result holds for random groups in the reduced words density model assuming there are sufficiently many generators. These are the first examples of cubulated hyperbolic groups with FWnFW_n for nn arbitrarily large.
