SUMMARY:Cubulating Artin groups via cubical small cancellation - Alexandre

DESCRIPTION:Artin groups form a large class of groups generalising braid g
 roups and related to Coxeter groups. While the geometry of Coxeter groups 
 is reasonably well understood\, much less is known about the geometry of A
 rtin groups. In particular\, it is unknown whether they are properly cubul
 ated\, with until recently only a few classes of Artin groups known to be 
 properly cubulated.\n&nbsp\;\nIn this talk\, I will report on joint work w
 ith Macarena Arenas\, where we use tools from cubical small cancellation t
 heory to prove that vast classes of Artin groups\, and in particular all A
 rtin groups with sufficiently large labels\, are properly cubulated.
