Aug 14, 2019 at 10:49 | comment | added | Jim Belk | (continued) Indeed, it is not hard to show that any graph $\Gamma$ which does not have a path of length two as an isometrically embedded subgraph must be a disjoint union of complete graphs. It follows that a Gromov hyperbolic, right-angled Coxeter group $W_\Gamma$ has the property you want if and only if it is a free product of finite groups. | |
Aug 14, 2019 at 10:41 | comment | added | Jim Belk | The group $G$ given at the end above corresponds to the right-angled Coxeter group $W_\Gamma$ for which $\Gamma$ is a path of length two. More generally, if $\Gamma$ is any graph which has a path of length two as an induced subgraph, then $W_\Gamma$ will have $G$ as an isometrically embedded subgroup, and the same phenomenon will occur. For example, $\mathbb{Z}_2* G$ is hyperbolic and irreducible (not a direct product -- I'm assuming that's what you mean by "irreducible") , and its Cayley graph has the Cayley graph of $G$ as an isometrically embedded subgraph. | |
