Irrational-slope versions of thompson's groups T and V

In this paper, we consider the T - and V -versions, Tt and Vt , of the irrational slope Thompson group Ft considered in J. Burillo, B. Nucinkis and L. Reeves [An irrational-slope Thompson's group, Publ. Mat. 65 (2021), 809–839]. We give infinite presentations for these groups and show how they...

Sumario:In this paper, we consider the T - and V -versions, Tt and Vt , of the irrational slope Thompson group Ft considered in J. Burillo, B. Nucinkis and L. Reeves [An irrational-slope Thompson's group, Publ. Mat. 65 (2021), 809–839]. We give infinite presentations for these groups and show how they can be represented by tree-pair diagrams similar to those for T and V . We also show that Tt and Vt have index- 2 normal subgroups, unlike their original Thompson counterparts T and V . These index- 2 subgroups are shown to be simple.
