Cyclically presented groups with length four positive relators

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: For cyclically presented groups G=Gn(w) with positive length four relators w=x0xjxkxl in the free group with basis x0,x1,ldots,xn1, we classify finiteness and, modulo two unresolved cases, we classify asphericity for the underlying presentations. We show that the fixed point subgroup of the shift ximapstoxi+1 is always finite and we relate finiteness of G and asphericity to the dynamics of the shift action by the cyclic group of order n on the nonidentity elements of G.
