Is there an algorithm to check that a subgroup of a CAT$(0)$ group is *not* quasiconvex?

Let $G$ be a finitely generated CAT$(0)$ group and $H$ a subgroup. If $H$ is quasiconvex then it is finitely generated, so we can immediately conclude that any non-finitely generated subgroup of $G$ ...

Davis Regular Tessellations of Spheres and Straight Line Coxeter Groups

In Davis' "Geometry and Topology of Coxeter Groups", section B.3, in particular Theorem B.3.1, there is a proof that every finite "straight line" Coxeter group is associated to a ...

The Bruhat Orders of (finite irreducible) Coxeter Groups as Polytopes

The Strong Bruhat Order of a finite irreducible Coxeter Group satisfies all the axioms of being an abstract polytope. It's also a remarkably nice fact that the Weak Bruhat Order of the Symmetric Group ...

Embedding of the 1-skeleton of a Coxeter group into its Davis complex

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system and let $\Sigma$ be the corresponding Davis complex. It is well-known that the Davis complex may be equipped with a piecewise Euclidean metric so that it is a proper, ...

When is a right-angled Coxeter group one-ended?

Let $\Gamma$ be a simplicial graph (ie. without multiple edes nor loops). We define the associated right-angled Artin group $A(\Gamma)$ by the presentation $$\langle v \in V(\Gamma) \mid [u,v]=1 \ \...
