相关论文: The Brin-Thompson groups sV are of type F_\infty
We construct braided versions $sV_{br}$ of the Brin-Thompson groups $sV$ and prove that they are of type $F_\infty$. The proof involves showing that the matching complexes of colored arcs on surfaces are highly connected.
We show that Brin's generalisations $2V$ and $3V$ of the Thompson-Higman group $V$ are of type $FP_\infty$. Our methods also give a new proof that both groups are finitely presented.
We construct a family of infinite simple groups that we call \emph{twisted Brin-Thompson groups}, generalizing Brin's higher-dimensional Thompson groups $sV$ ($s\in\mathbb{N}$). We use twisted Brin-Thompson groups to prove a variety of…
We prove that the braided Thompson's groups $V_{\rm br}$ and $F_{\rm br}$ are of type $F_\infty$, confirming a conjecture by John Meier. The proof involves showing that matching complexes of arcs on surfaces are highly connected. In an…
Motivated by Burillo, Cleary and Roever's summary on obstructions of subgroups of Thompson's group $V,$ we explored the higher dimensional version of the groups, Brin-Thompson groups $nV$ and $SV,$ a class of infinite dimensional…
We prove that Claas R\"over's Thompson-Grigorchuk simple group $V\mathcal{G}$ has type $F_\infty$. The proof involves constructing two complexes on which $V\mathcal{G}$ acts: a simplicial complex analogous to the Stein complex for $V$, and…
The Thompson group V is a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of the Cantor set. Brin defined higher dimensional Thompson groups nV as generalizations of V. We prove that nV has Serre's property FA, for every n. This is a generalization of…
We study quasimorphisms and bounded cohomology of a variety of braided versions of Thompson groups. Our first main result is that the Brin--Dehornoy braided Thompson group $bV$ has an infinite-dimensional space of quasimorphisms and thus…
In previous work, joint with Bux, Fluch, Marschler and Witzel, we proved that the braided Thompson groups are of type $\textrm{F}_\infty$. The proof utilized certain contractible cube complexes, which in this paper we prove are CAT(0). We…
In his papers [2], [3] Brin introduced the higher dimensional Thompson groups nV which are generalizations to the Thompson's group V of self-homeomorphisms of the Cantor set and found a finite set of generators and relations in the case n =…
In 1984 Brown and Geoghegan proved that Thompson's group $F$ is of type $\textrm{F}_\infty$, making it the first example of an infinite dimensional torsion-free group of type $\textrm{F}_\infty$. Over the decades a different, shorter proof…
We consider generalisations of Thompson's group $V$, denoted by $V_r(\Sigma)$, which also include the groups of Higman, Stein and Brin. It was shown by the authors in [20] that under some mild conditions these groups and centralisers of…
The higher-dimensional Thompson groups $nV$, for $n \geq 2$, were introduced by Brin in 2005. We provide new presentations for each of these infinite simple groups. The first is an infinite presentation, analogous to the Coxeter…
Hughes has defined a class of groups, which we call FSS (finite similarity structure) groups. Each FSS group acts on a compact ultrametric space by local similarities. The best-known example is Thompson's group V. Guided by previous work on…
We show that the \s{\phi}-labeled Thompson groups and the twisted Brin--Thompson groups are boundedly acyclic. This allows us to prove several new embedding results for groups. First, every group of type $F_n$ embeds quasi-isometrically…
We consider generalisations of Thompson's group $V$, denoted $V_r(\Sigma)$, which also include the groups of Higman, Stein and Brin. We show that, under some mild hypotheses, $V_r(\Sigma)$ is the full automorphism group of a Cantor-algebra.…
Higher-dimensional Thompson's groups nV are finitely presented groups described by Brin which generalize dyadic self-maps of the unit interval to dyadic self-maps of n-dimensional unit cubes. We describe some of the metric properties of…
We demonstrate the existence of a family of finitely generated subgroups of Richard Thompson's group $F$ which is strictly well-ordered by the embeddability relation in type $\epsilon_0 +1$. All except the maximum element of this family…
We show that labelled Thompson groups and twisted Brin--Thompson groups are all acyclic. This allows us to prove several new embedding results for groups. First, every group of type $F_n$ embeds quasi-isometrically as a subgroup of an…
Given a group $G$ acting faithfully on a set $S$, one gets a simple group denoted $SV_G$, called a twisted Brin--Thompson group. In this paper we drop the faithfulness assumption, and get an abstract version of a twisted Brin--Thompson…
