We construct new classes of examples. These arise as kernels of a homomorphisms from direct products of surface groups onto free abelian groups of even rank. They have exotic finiteness properties: For any $r\\geq 2$ our class of examples contains K\\\"ahler groups that have a classifying space with finite $r$-skeleton while not having a classifying space with finitely many $s$-cells for some $s>r$. The gap between $s$ and $r$ begs intriguing questions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-01-04T21:51:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "32J27", "32Q15", "20F65", "20J05" ], "keywords": [ "higher dimensional tori", "kähler groups", "surface groups", "direct products", "free abelian groups" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 21, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
