Abstract

Let $\Gamma$ be a connected, triangle-free, planar graph with at least five vertices that has no separating vertices or edges. If the graph $\Gamma$ is $\mathcal{CFS}$, we prove that the right-angled Coxeter group $G_\Gamma$ is virtually a Seifert manifold group or virtually a graph manifold group and we give a complete quasi-isometry classification of these such groups. Otherwise, we prove that $G_\Gamma$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of $\mathcal{CFS}$ right-angled Coxeter subgroups of $G_\Gamma$. Consequently, the divergence of $G_\Gamma$ is linear, or quadratic, or exponential. We also generalize right-angled Coxeter groups which are virtually graph manifold groups to certain high dimensional right-angled Coxeter groups (our families exist in every dimension) and study the coarse geometry of this collection. We prove that strongly quasiconvex torsion free infinite index subgroups in certain graph of groups are free and we apply this result to our right-angled Coxeter groups.<br />Comment: 38 pages, 6 figures.
