There is only one gap in the isoperimetric spectrum

The closure of the set of isoperimetric exponents for finitely presented groups is {1} ∪ [2, ∞). For each pair of positive integers p ≥ q, one can construct groups with aspherical presentations for which the Dehn function is ≃ n2α, where α = log2(2p/q).

Resumo:The closure of the set of isoperimetric exponents for finitely presented groups is {1} ∪ [2, ∞). For each pair of positive integers p ≥ q, one can construct groups with aspherical presentations for which the Dehn function is ≃ n2α, where α = log2(2p/q).
