Quasi-Isometric Bounded Generation by Q-Rank-One Subgroups
We say that a subset X quasi-isometrically boundedly generates a finitely generated group Γ if each element γ of a finite-index subgroup of Γ can be written as a product γ = x₁x₂⋯xᵣ of a bounded number of elements of X, such that the word length of each xᵢ is bounded by a constant times the word len...

| description | We say that a subset X quasi-isometrically boundedly generates a finitely generated group Γ if each element γ of a finite-index subgroup of Γ can be written as a product γ = x₁x₂⋯xᵣ of a bounded number of elements of X, such that the word length of each xᵢ is bounded by a constant times the word length of γ. A. Lubotzky, S. Mozes, and M.S. Raghunathan observed in 1993 that SL(n, ℤ) is quasi-isometrically boundedly generated by the elements of its natural SL(2, ℤ) subgroups. We generalize (a slightly weakened version of) this by showing that every S-arithmetic subgroup of an isotropic, almost-simple Q-group is quasi-isometrically boundedly generated by standard ℚ-rank-1 subgroups.

I thank A. Brown, D. Fisher, and S. Hurtado for suggesting this problem, and for their encouragement as I worked toward a solution. Extra thanks are due to D. Fisher for suggesting the generalization to groups with infinite center that is presented in Section 6. en Інститут математики НАН України Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications Quasi-Isometric Bounded Generation by Q-Rank-One Subgroups Article published earlier |
