Infinite Coxeter Groups Are Virtually Indicable
An infinite group G is called indicable (resp. virtually indicable) if G (resp. a subgroup of finite index in G) admits a homomorphism onto Z. This is a powerful property for a group to have; for example in the context of infinite fundamental groups of aspherical 3-manifolds it remains one of the outstanding open questions to prove such groups are virtually indicable. To continue on the 3-manif...
متن کاملCoxeter groups are virtually special
In this paper we prove that every finitely generated Coxeter group has a finite index subgroup that is the fundamental group of a special cube complex. Some consequences include: Every f.g. Coxeter group is virtually a subgroup of a right-angled Coxeter group. Every word-hyperbolic Coxeter group has separable quasiconvex subgroups. © 2010 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

متن کاملWords with Intervening Neighbours in Infinite Coxeter Groups are Reduced
Consider a graph with vertex set S. A word in the alphabet S has the intervening neighbours property if any two occurrences of the same letter are separated by all its graph neighbours. For a Coxeter graph, words represent group elements. Speyer recently proved that words with the intervening neighbours property are irreducible if the group is infinite and irreducible. We present a new and shor...
متن کاملPowers of Coxeter Elements in Infinite Groups Are Reduced
Let W be an infinite irreducible Coxeter group with (s1, . . . , sn) the simple generators. We give a simple proof that the word s1s2 · · · sns1s2 · · · sn · · · s1s2 · · · sn is reduced for any number of repetitions of s1s2 · · · sn. This result was proved for simplylaced, crystallographic groups by Kleiner and Pelley using methods from the theory of quiver representations. Our proof only usin...
متن کاملJSJ-Decompositions of Coxeter Groups over Virtually Abelian Splittings
The idea of “JSJ-decompositions” for 3-manifolds began with work of Waldhausen and was developed later through work of Jaco, Shalen and Johansen. It was shown that there is a finite collection of 2-sided, incompressible tori that separate a closed irreducible 3-manifold into pieces with strong topological structure. Sela introduced the idea of JSJ-decompositions for groups, an idea that has flo...
