Abstract: We link distinct concepts of geometric group theory and homotopy theory through underlying combinatorics. For a flag simplicial complex K, we specify a necessary and sufficient combinatorial condition for the commutator subgroup RCK of a right-angled Coxeter group, viewed as the fundamental group of the real moment-angle complex mathcalRK, to be a one-relator group; and for the Pontryagin algebra H(OmegamathcalZK) of the moment-angle complex to be a one-relator algebra. We also give a homological characterisation of these properties. For RCK, it is given by a condition on the homology group H2(mathcalRK), whereas for H(OmegamathcalZK) it is stated in terms of the bigrading of the homology groups of mathcalZK.
