We show that, for any linear forest $\\Lambda$ and any finite graph $\\Gamma$, $G(\\Lambda)$ can be embedded into $G(\\Gamma)$ if and only if $\\Lambda$ can be realised as a full subgraph of $\\Gamma$. We also prove that if we drop the assumption that $\\Lambda$ is a linear forest, then the above assertion does not hold, namely, for any finite graph $\\Lambda$, which is not a linear forest, there exists a finite graph $\\Gamma$ such that $G(\\Lambda)$ can be embedded into $G(\\Gamma)$, though $\\Lambda$ cannot be embedded into $\\Gamma$ as a full subgraph.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-12-06T10:14:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F36" ], "keywords": [ "right-angled artin group", "full subgraph", "finite graph", "linear forest" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
