RGD-systems of type $(4, 4, 4)$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$ and tree products

Sebastian Bischof

Abstract

In this paper we prove that the group $U_+$ of an RGD-system of type $(4, 4, 4)$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$ contains a certain tree product as a subgroup. The proof relies on a careful analysis of the action on the associated twin building. This result is part of a larger project and we will use it as an induction start to construct uncountably many RGD-systems of type $(4, 4, 4)$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$.

Key Result

Theorem 1

Let $(W, S)$ be of type $(4, 4, 4)$ and let $(G, (U_{\alpha})_{\alpha \in \Phi})$ be an RGD-system of type $(W, S)$ over $\mathbb{F}_2$. Then the canonical homomorphism $U_{sr} \star_{U_s} V_{\{s, t\}} \star_{U_t} U_{trt} \to G$ is injective.
