Algebraic invariants for Bestvina-Brady groups

Stefan Papadima, Alexander I. Suciu

Published 2006-03-10, updated 2007-01-04Version 2

Bestvina-Brady groups arise as kernels of length homomorphisms from right-angled Artin groups G_\G to the integers. Under some connectivity assumptions on the flag complex \Delta_\G, we compute several algebraic invariants of such a group N_\G, directly from the underlying graph \G. As an application, we give examples of Bestvina-Brady groups which are not isomorphic to any Artin group or arrangement group.
