    Groups of type FPFP via graphical small cancellation

    Full text link
    We construct an uncountable family of groups of type FPFP. In contrast to every previous construction of non-finitely presented groups of type FPFP we do not use Morse theory on cubical complexes; instead we use Gromov's graphical small cancellation theory.Comment: 3 figures. Second version: two paragraphs added emphasizing the difference between our construction and Morse theoretic one

    Realising fusion systems

    Full text link
    We show that every fusion system on a p-group S is equal to the fusion system associated to a discrete group G with the property that every p-subgroup of G is conjugate to a subgroup of S

    Realising fusion systems

    We show that every fusion system (saturated or not) on a p-group S is equal to the fusion system associated to a discrete group G containing S as a subgroup and such that every finite subgroup of G is conjugate to a subgroup of S

    The Yagita invariant of symplectic groups of large rank

    Full text link
    Fix a prime pp, and let RR be any subring of the complex numbers that is either integrally closed or contains a primitive ppth root of 1. For each np1n\geq p-1 we compute the Yagita invariant at the prime pp for the symplectic group Sp(2n,R)Sp(2n,R).Comment: Minor changes compared to first versio

    The ?2-cohomology of hyperplane complements

    No full text
    We compute the l^2-Betti numbers of the complement of any finite collection of affine hyperplanes in complex n-space. At most one of the l^2-Betti numbers is non-zero. <br/
