Distances on spheres in Cayley graphs of non-amenable groups

Let $G$ be a non-amenable group (or perhaps more generally, a group with exponential growth). For any $\epsilon>0$, define the shell of radius r, $S_\epsilon(r)$, as the set of points that lie at a ...

Does the visual boundary of any one-ended Cayley graph contain at least three points?

Let $\Gamma$ be a Cayley graph of a finitely generated group. We can define the visual boundary of $\Gamma$ with respect to some base vertex $b$, denoted $\partial \Gamma$, as the set of geodesic rays ...

What about a Cayley n-complex for n>2?

Let $G$ be a finitely presented group. The Cayley graph of the finite generating set is a $1$-complex where the $0$-cells are the elements of $G$ and the $1$-cells are given by the generators (...

Is the function $k(g,h) = \frac{1}{1+\lvert gh^{-1}\rvert}$ positive definite?

Let $G$ be a finite group, $S \subset G$ a generating set, closed under taking inverses, and $\lvert\cdot\rvert$ the word length with respect to this set $S$. Question. Is the function $k(g,h) = \...

Cayley graph properties

Consider an infinite graph that satisfies the following property: if any finite set of vertices is removed (and all the adjacent edges), then the resulting graph has only one infinite connected ...

A generously vertex transitive graph which is not Cayley?

A graph is vertex transitive if $x \mapsto y$ by an automorphism. A graph is generously vertex transitive if $x \mapsto y \mapsto x$ by an automorphism. Simple facts: GVT $\rightarrow$ unimodular. ...

Induced graphs of Cayley graph

I have a Cayley graph $\mathrm{Cay}(G,S)$, its group presentation $G=\langle S | R \rangle$, and it becomes a metric graph by assigning a length equal to $1$ to each edge. I also have an induced ...
