چکیده

A finite simple graph Γ determines a right-angled Artin group GΓ, with one generator for each vertex v, and with one commutator relation vw = wv for each pair of vertices joined by an edge. The Bestvina-Brady group NΓ is the kernel of the projection GΓ → Z, which sends each generator v to 1. We establish precisely which graphs Γ give rise to quasi-Kähler (respectively, Kähler) groups NΓ. This yields examples of quasi-projective groups which are not commensurable to the fundamental group of any aspherical, quasi-projective variety.

Quasi-kähler Bestvina-brady Groups

A finite simple graph Γ determines a right-angled Artin group GΓ, with one generator for each vertex v, and with one commutator relation vw = wv for each pair of vertices joined by an edge. The Bestvina-Brady group NΓ is the kernel of the projection GΓ → Z, which sends each generator v to 1. We establish precisely which graphs Γ give rise to quasi-Kähler (respectively, Kähler) groups NΓ. This y...

Bestvina-Brady Groups and the Plus Construction

A recent result of Bestvina and Brady [1], Theorem 8.7, shows that one of two outstanding questions has a negative answer: either there exists a group of cohomological dimension 2 and geometric dimension 3 (a counterexample to the Eilenberg-Ganea Conjecture [4]), or there exists a nonaspherical subcomplex of an aspherical 2-complex (a counterexample to the Whitehead Conjecture [11]). More preci...

Pushing fillings in right-angled Artin groups

We define a family of quasi-isometry invariants of groups called higher divergence functions, which measure isoperimetric properties “at infinity.” We give sharp upper and lower bounds on the divergence functions for right-angled Artin groups, using different pushing maps on the associated cube complexes. In the process, we define a class of RAAGs we call orthoplex groups, which have the proper...

Cohomology computations for Artin groups, Bestvina–Brady groups, and graph products

We compute: the cohomology with group ring coefficients of Artin groups (or actually, of their associated Salvetti complexes), of Bestvina–Brady groups of type FP, and of graph products of groups, theL-Betti numbers of Bestvina–Brady groups of type FP overQ, and of graph products of groups, the weighted L-Betti numbers of graph products of Coxeter groups. In the case of arbitrary graph products...

We perform the analytic classification of plane branches of multiplicity less or equal than four. This is achieved by computing a Standard basis for the modules of Kähler differentials of such branches by means of the algorithm we developed in [9] and then applying the classification method for plane branches presented in [10]. Subject classification: Primary 14H20; Secondary 14Q05, 14Q20, 32S10
