Aspherical fully residually free Kähler groups are Fuchsian
نویسنده
چکیده
In this note, we prove that an aspherical fully residually free Kähler group is Fuchsian. One instances of this shows that cocompact lattices in PU(1, n) for n > 1 cannot be residually free. The proof uses some recent work of Delzant and Gromov.

On the residual finiteness of outer automorphisms of hyperbolic groups
We show that every virtually torsion-free subgroup of the outer automorphism group of a conjugacy separable hyperbolic group is residually finite. As a result, we are able to prove that the group of outer automorphisms of every finitely generated Fuchsian group and of every free-by-finite group is residually finite.

We show that every virtually torsion-free subgroup of the outer au-tomorphism group of a conjugacy separable hyperbolic group is residually finite. As a result, we are able to prove that the group of outer automorphisms of every finitely generated Fuchsian group and of every free-by-finite group is residually finite. We also generalise the main result for relatively hyperbolic groups.

متن کاملSubgroup Properties of Fully Residually Free Groups
We prove that fully residually free groups have the Howson property, that is the intersection of any two finitely generated subgroups in such a group is again finitely generated. We also establish some commensurability properties for finitely generated fully residually free groups which are similar to those of free groups. Finally we prove that for a finitely generated fully residually free gro...
متن کاملFully Residually Free Groups and Graphs Labeled by Infinite Words
Let F = F (X) be a free group with basis X and Z[t] be a ring of polynomials with integer coefficients in t. In this paper we develop a theory of (Z[t], X)-graphs a powerful tool in studying finitely generated fully residually free (limit) groups. This theory is based on the Kharlampovich-Myasnikov characterization of finitely generated fully residually free groups as subgroups of the Lyndon’s ...
