Coxeter 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 کاملAutomorphism groups of polycyclic-by-finite groups and arithmetic groups
We show that the outer automorphism group of a polycyclic-by-finite group is an arithmetic group. This result follows from a detailed structural analysis of the automorphism groups of such groups. We use an extended version of the theory of the algebraic hull functor initiated by Mostow. We thus make applicable refined methods from the theory of algebraic and arithmetic groups. We also construc...
متن کاملGeneration of polycyclic groups
Polycyclic groups are one of the best understood class of groups. For example most of the decision problems are decidable in this class, see [7]. It seems surprising therefore that it is still an open problem whether there exists an algorithm which finds d(G) for any polycyclic group G (given by say a set of generators and relations). This is unknown even in the case when G is virtually abelian...
متن کاملFurstenberg Entropy Realizations for Virtually Free Groups and Lamplighter Groups
Let (G, μ) be a discrete group with a generating probability measure. Nevo shows that if G has property (T) then there exists an ε > 0 such that the Furstenberg entropy of any (G, μ)-stationary space is either zero or larger than ε. Virtually free groups, such as SL2(Z), do not have property (T). For these groups, we construct stationary actions with arbitrarily small, positive entropy. This co...
متن کاملOn Ordered Polycyclic Groups
It has been asserted that any (full) order on a torsion-free, finitely generated, nilpotent group is defined by some F-basis of G and that the group of o-automorphisms of such a group is itself a group of the same kind: Examples provided herein demonstrate that both of these assertions are false; however, it is proved that the group of o-automorphisms of an ordered, polycyclic group is nilpoten...
