دانلود کتاب Quasi-actions on trees II: Finite depth Bass-Serre trees

This paper addresses questions of quasi-isometric rigidity and classification for fundamental groups of finite graphs of groups, under the assumption that the Bass-Serre tree of the graph of groups has finite depth. The main example of a finite depth graph of groups is one whose vertex and edge groups are coarse Poincare duality groups. The main theorem says that, under certain hypotheses, if $mathcal{G}$ is a finite graph of coarse Poincare duality groups, then any finitely generated group quasi-isometric to the fundamental group of $mathcal{G}$ is also the fundamental group of a finite graph of coarse Poincare duality groups, and any quasi-isometry between two such groups must coarsely preserve the vertex and edge spaces of their Bass-Serre trees of spaces. Besides some simple normalization hypotheses, the main hypothesis is the "crossing graph condition", which is imposed on each vertex group $mathcal{G}_v$ which is an $n$-dimensional coarse Poincare duality group for which every incident edge group has positive codimension: the crossing graph of $mathcal{G}_v$ is a graph $epsilon_v$ that describes the pattern in which the codimension 1 edge groups incident to $mathcal{G}_v$ are crossed by other edge groups incident to $mathcal{G}_v$, and the crossing graph condition requires that $epsilon_v$ be connected or empty
