Abstract

Let $Γ$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $Γ$ is $C ℱ S$ , we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_{Γ}$ is virtually a Seifert manifold group or virtually a graph manifold group and we give a complete quasi-isometry classification of these groups. Furthermore, we prove that $G_{Γ}$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of $C ℱ S$ right-angled Coxeter subgroups of $G_{Γ}$ . Consequently, the divergence of $G_{Γ}$ is linear, quadratic or exponential. We also generalize right-angled Coxeter groups which are virtually graph manifold groups to certain high-dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups (our families exist in every dimension) and study the coarse geometry of this collection. We prove that strongly quasiconvex, torsion-free, infinite-index subgroups in certain graph of groups are free and we apply this result to our right-angled Coxeter groups.
