Interval Garside groups arising from involutions in finite reflection groups

Abstract

We identify and study the interval Garside groups arising from the restriction of the absolute order on a Coxeter group to a lattice $[1,w]_T$, where $w$ is an involution. Those involutions $w$ for which $[1,w]_T$ is a lattice were previously classified by the second author; every such involution lies in the center of the parabolic subgroup generated by $[1,w]_T$. Except in type $B_n$, the obtained groups are isomorphic to (decomposable) right-angled Artin groups. We also investigate the situation for some finite complex reflection groups, mostly in rank two, taking for $w$ a (not necessarily involutive) central element.

Reversibility and its asymptotic counting in Picard group

We investigate reversible elements in the Picard modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}[i])$. We show that reversibility coincides with strong reversibility for Kleinian groups, in particular for the Picard group. We classify reversible elements in the Picard group and characterize loxodromic reversible elements up to conjugacy. We prove that each such conjugacy class contains exactly eight special representatives. We also obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of reversible conjugacy classes with bounded trace.

Conjugator length in finitely generated groups

We describe all functions $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ that can be realized, up to the standard equivalence, as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups. Furthermore, we show that any two increasing functions $f,g\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ can be simultaneously realized as conjugator length functions of finitely generated, commensurable (in particular, quasi-isometric) groups.

The spectrum of conjugator length functions

A recent program tries to find which functions appear as conjugator length functions. In this note, we show that any (computable) increasing function larger than $n$ appears as $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ for some finitely generated (recursively presented) group. On the other hand, we demonstrate that either $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ must be constant or $\mathrm{Cl}_G(n)\succ n$. Combining these, we obtain a complete description of which functions appear as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups.
