On right-angled Artin groups without surface subgroups

Sang-hyun Kim

Published 2008-11-12, updated 2009-01-22Version 2

We study the class N of graphs, the right-angled Artin groups defined on which do not contain surface subgroups. We prove that a presumably smaller class N' is closed under amalgamating along complete subgraphs, and also under adding bisimplicial edges. It follows that chordal graphs and chordal bipartite graphs belong to N'.
