A counterexample to generalized accessibility

From MaRDI portal





[For the entire collection see Zbl 0744.00026.] Throughout this paper, \(G \times T \to T\) will be an action of the group \(G\) on the tree \(T\). Unless noted, out actions are simplicial and without inversions. Elsewhere, we showed that if a) \(G\) is finitely presented and b) \(G \times T \to T\) satisfies certain other conditions, then the number of vertices and edges of \(T/G\) is bounded in terms of \(G\) alone. The main point of this paper is to produce actions \(G_0 \times T \to T\) of a fixed finitely generated group which satisfy b) and yet have arbitrarily many vertices. By taking the limit of a sequence of more and more complicated actions, we obtain an interesting action of \(G_0\) on an \(\mathbb{R}\)-tree.
