Complete Classification of the Dehn Functions of Bestvina–Brady Groups
摘要
We prove that the Dehn function of every finitely presented Bestvina–Brady group grows as a linear, quadratic, cubic, or quartic polynomial. In fact, we provide explicit criteria on the defining graph to determine the degree of this polynomial. As a consequence, we identify an obstruction that prevents certain Bestvina–Brady groups from admitting a CAT(0) structure.
