Examples of non-rigid CAT(0) groups from the category of knot groups

Christopher Mooney

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 8 (2008) 1667–1690

DOI: 10.2140/agt.2008.8.1667

Abstract

C Croke and B Kleiner have constructed an example of a CAT(0) group with more than one visual boundary. J Wilson has proven that this same group has uncountably many distinct boundaries. In this article we prove that the knot group of any connected sum of two non-trivial torus knots also has uncountably many distinct CAT(0) boundaries.

Keywords

CAT(0) groups, CAT(0) boundaries, knot groups
