     View Summary

    Abstract In this paper, we study isometric actions on finite-dimensional CAT(0) spaces for the Higman–Thompson groups $$T_n$$, which are generalizations of Thompson’s group T. It is known that every semi-simple action of T on a complete CAT(0) space of finite covering dimension has a global fixed point. After this result, we show that every semi-simple action of $$T_n$$ on a complete CAT(0) space of finite covering dimension has a global fixed point. In the proof, we regard $$T_n$$ as ring groups of homeomorphisms of $$S^1$$ introduced by Kim, Koberda and Lodha, and use general facts on these groups.

  • ACYLINDRICAL HYPERBOLICITY OF ARTIN–TITS GROUPS ASSOCIATED WITH TRIANGLE-FREE GRAPHS AND CONES OVER SQUARE-FREE BIPARTITE GRAPHS

     View Summary

    <title>Abstract</title>It is conjectured that the central quotient of any irreducible Artin–Tits group is either virtually cyclic or acylindrically hyperbolic. We prove this conjecture for Artin–Tits groups that are known to be CAT(0) groups by a result of Brady and McCammond, that is, Artin–Tits groups associated with graphs having no 3-cycles and Artin–Tits groups of almost large type associated with graphs admitting appropriate directions. In particular, the latter family contains Artin–Tits groups of large type associated with cones over square-free bipartite graphs.
