Adapted almost invariant sets and splittings of groups

Peter Scott, Gadde Swarup

We prove relative versions of many earlier results about almost invariant sets and splittings of groups. In particular, we prove a relative version of the algebraic torus theorem,…

A deformation theorem for Poincaré duality pairs in dimension 3

Lawrence Reeves, Peter Scott, Gadde A. Swarup

We prove the analogue of Johannson's Deformation Theorem for PD3 pairs.

Comparing decompositions of Poincaré duality pairs

Lawrence Reeves, Peter Scott, Gadde Swarup

Analogues of JSJ decompositions were developed for Poincaré duality pairs in [19]. These decompositions depend only on the group. Our focus will be on describing the edge splitting…

Splittings and C-complexes

Mahan Mj, Peter Scott, Gadde Swarup

The intersection pattern of the translates of the limit set of a quasi-convex subgroup of a hyperbolic group can be coded in a natural incidence graph, which suggests connections w…

Canonical decompositions for Poincaré duality pairs

Peter Scott, Gadde A. Swarup

The authors previously described an algebraic analogue of the JSJ-decomposition of a 3-manifold. This analogue is defined for any finitely presented, one-ended group. We study this…

Minimal cubings

Graham Niblo, Michah Sageev, Peter Scott +1

We combine ideas of Scott and Swarup on good position for almost invariant subsets of a group with ideas of Sageev on constructing cubings from such sets. We construct cubings whic…
