Fixed-point-free involutions on the boundaries of Right-angled Coxeter Groups

About 20 years ago, Bogdan Nica conjectured that the boundary of any word-hyperbolic group admits admits a fixed-point-free involution. In this very short article, we prove a variation of the conjecture, replacing word-hyperbolic groups with Right-angled coxeter groups. This is not a solution to Nica's conjecture, but hopefully the techniques will shed some light regarding possible approaches to the problem.

Abstract

About 20 years ago, Bogdan Nica conjectured that the boundary of any word-hyperbolic group admits admits a fixed-point-free involution. In this very short article, we prove a variation of the conjecture, replacing word-hyperbolic groups with Right-angled coxeter groups. This is not a solution to Nica's conjecture, but hopefully the techniques will shed some light regarding possible approaches to the problem.
