Abstract

The Σ-invariants of Bieri–Neumann–Strebel and Bieri–Renz involve an action of a discrete group G on a geometrically suitable space M. In the early versions, M was always a finite-dimensional Euclidean space on which G acted by translations. A substantial literature exists on this, connecting the invariants to group theory and to tropical geometry (which, actually, Σ-theory anticipated). More recently, we have generalized these invariants to the case where M is a proper CAT(0) space on which G acts by isometries. The "zeroth stage" of this was developed in our paper [BG16]. The present paper provides a higher-dimensional extension of the theory to the "nth stage" for any n. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
