Embedding criterion for right-angled Artin groups in Brin-Thompson groups

At least 9 years old · documented by

Let Γ\Gamma be a finite simplicial graph, and let AΓA_\Gamma be the right-angled Artin group defined by generators corresponding to the vertices of Γ\Gamma, with two generators commuting exactly when the corresponding vertices are adjacent. Let n≥1n\geq 1, and write nVnV for the nn-dimensional Brin-Thompson group. Embedding criterion. The group AΓA_\Gamma embeds into nVnV if and only if it does not contain Zn+1∗Z\mathbb{Z}^{n+1}*\mathbb{Z}. This would generalize the known case for n=1n=1, where the only right-angled Artin groups embedding into Thompson's group VV are direct products of free groups; the criterion is presented as open in the source.
