Abstract: |
The authors study the finite decomposition complexity of metric
spaces of $H$, equipped with different metrics, where $H$ is a
subgroup of the linear group ${\rm GL}_{\infty}(\mathbb{Z})$. It is
proved that there is an injective Lipschitz map $\varphi:(F,
d_{S})\rightarrow(H,d)$, where $F$ is the Thompson's group, $d_{S}$
the word-metric of $F$ with respect to the finite generating set $S$
and $d$ a metric of $H$. But it is not a proper map. Meanwhile, it
is proved that $\varphi:(F, d_{S})\rightarrow(H,d_{1})$ is not a
Lipschitz map, where $d_{1}$ is another metric of $H$. |
