The right-angled Artin pro-$p$ group $G_{\\Gamma}$ associated to a fnite simplicial graph $\\Gamma$ is the pro-$p$ completion of the right-angled Artin group associated to $\\Gamma$. We prove that the following assertions are equivalent: (i) no induced subgraph of $\\Gamma$ is a square or a line with four vertices (a path of length 3); (ii) every closed subgroup of $G_{\\Gamma}$ is itself a right-angled Artin pro-$p$ group (possibly infinitely generated); (iii) $G_{\\Gamma}$ is a Bloch-Kato pro-$p$ group; (iv) every closed subgroup of $G_{\\Gamma}$ has torsion free abelianization; (v) $G_{\\Gamma}$ occurs as the maximal pro-$p$ Galois group $G_K(p)$ of some field $K$ containing a primitive $p$th root of unity; (vi) $G_{\\Gamma}$ can be constructed from $\\mathbb{Z}_p$ by iterating two group theoretic operations, namely, direct products with $\\mathbb{Z}_p$ and free pro-$p$ products. This settles in the affirmative a conjecture of Quadrelli and Weigel. Also, we show that the Smoothness Conjecture of De Clercq and Florens holds for right-angled Artin pro-$p$ groups. Moreover, we prove that $G_{\\Gamma}$ is coherent if and only if each circuit of $\\Gamma$ of length greater than three has a chord.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-04T17:41:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20E18", "12F10", "20F36", "20E06", "20E08", "12G05" ], "keywords": [ "fnite simplicial graph", "closed subgroup", "torsion free abelianization", "group theoretic operations", "length greater" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
