Right-angled Artin groups and enhanced Koszul properties

Abstract

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 Γ{\Gamma}. Moreover, the same algebra is a universally Koszul algebra if, and only if, the graph Γ{\Gamma} associated to the right-angled Artin group has the diagonal property. From this we obtain several new examples of pro-p groups, for a prime number p, whose continuous cochain cohomology algebra with coefficients in the field of p elements is strongly and universally (or strongly and non-universally) Koszul. This provides new support to a conjecture on Galois cohomology of maximal prop Galois groups of fields formulated by J. Min\'a\v{c} et al.
