Virtually cyclic dimension for 3-manifold groups
نویسندگان
چکیده
Let G be the fundamental group of a connected, closed, orientable 3-manifold. We explicitly compute its virtually cyclic geometric dimension. Among tools we use are prime and JSJ decompositions M, several push-out type constructions, as well some Bredon cohomology computations.

Which 3-manifold Groups Are Kähler Groups?
The question in the title, first raised by Goldman and Donaldson, was partially answered by Reznikov. We give a complete answer, as follows: if G is both a (closed) 3-manifold group and a Kähler group, then G must be finite.
متن کاملTits alternative for 3-manifold groups
Let M be an irreducible, orientable, closed 3-manifold with fundamental group G. We show that if the pro-p completion Ĝp of G is infinite then G is either soluble-by-finite or contains a free subgroup of rank 2.
متن کاملGrothendieck’s problem for 3-manifold groups
This problem was solved in the negative by Bridson and Grunewald in [6] who produced many examples of groups G, and proper subgroups H for which û an isomorphism. The method of proof of [6] was a far reaching generalization of an example of Platonov and Tavgen [33] that produced finitely generated examples that answered Grothendieck’s problem in the negative (see also [5]). Henceforth, we will ...
متن کاملIsospectrality and 3-manifold Groups
In this note, we explain how a well-known construction of isospectral manifolds leads to an obstruction to a group being the fundamental group of a closed 3-dimensional manifold. The problem of determining, for a given group G, whether there is a closed 3-manifold M with π1(M) ∼= G is readily seen to be undecidable; let us write G ∈ G 3 if there is such a 3-manifold. A standard conjecture (rela...
متن کاملKähler groups, quasi-projective groups and 3-manifold groups
We prove two results relating 3-manifold groups to fundamental groups occurring in complex geometry. Let N be a compact, connected, orientable 3-manifold. If N has non-empty, toroidal boundary, and π1(N) is a Kähler group, then N is the product of a torus with an interval. On the other hand, if N has either empty or toroidal boundary, and π1(N) is a quasi-projective group, then all the prime co...
