From Riches To Raags 3 Manifolds Right Angled Artin Groups And Cubical Geometry

Download or read book From Riches to Raags: 3-Manifolds, Right-Angled Artin Groups, and Cubical Geometry written by Daniel T. Wise and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wise describes a stream of geometric group theory connecting many of the classically considered groups arising in combinatorial group theory with right-angled Artin groups. He writes for new or seasoned researchers who have completed at least an introductory course of geometric groups theory or even just hyperbolic groups, but says some comfort with graphs of groups would be helpful. His topics include non-positively curved cube complexes, virtual specialness of malnormal amalgams, finiteness properties of the dual cube complex, walls in cubical small-cancellation theory, and hyperbolicity and quasiconvexity detection.
