Commensurating HNN-extensions: hierarchical hyperbolicity and biautomaticity
We construct a CAT(0) hierarchically hyperbolic group (HHG) acting geometrically on the product of a hyperbolic plane and a locally-finite tree which is not biautomatic. This gives the first example of an HHG which is not biautomatic, the first example of a non-biautomatic CAT(0) group of flat-rank...

| Summary: | We construct a CAT(0) hierarchically hyperbolic group (HHG) acting geometrically on the product of a hyperbolic plane and a locally-finite tree which is not biautomatic. This gives the first example of an HHG which is not biautomatic, the first example of a non-biautomatic CAT(0) group of flat-rank 2, and the first example of an HHG which is injective but not Helly. Our proofs heavily utilise the space of geodesic currents for a hyperbolic surface. |
