Reflection trees of graphs as boundaries of Coxeter groups

Jacek Świątkowski

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 21 (2021) 351–420
Abstract

To any finite graph X (viewed as a topological space) we associate an explicit compact metric space 𝒳r(X), which we call the reflection tree of graphs X. This space is of topological dimension 1 and its connected components are locally connected. We show that if X is appropriately triangulated (as a simplicial graph Γ for which X is the geometric realization) then the visual boundary (W,S) of the right-angled Coxeter system (W,S) with the nerve isomorphic to Γ is homeomorphic to 𝒳r(X). For each X, this yields in particular many word hyperbolic groups with Gromov boundary homeomorphic to the space 𝒳r(X).

I dedicate this paper to the memory of my parents.
