DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/McGillGGT/19
 /">Generalized Tits conjecture for Artin groups</a>\nby Kevin Schreve (Uni
 versity of Chicago) as part of McGill geometric group theory seminar\n\n\n
 Abstract\nIn 2001\, Crisp and Paris showed the squares of the standard gen
 erators of an Artin group generate an "obvious" right-angled Artin subgrou
 p. \nThis resolved an earlier conjecture of Tits. I will introduce a gener
 alization of this conjecture\, where we ask that a larger set of elements 
 generates another "obvious" right-angled Artin subgroup.\nI will give evid
 ence that this is a good generalization\, explain what classes of Artin gr
 oups we can prove it for\, and give some applications. Joint with Kasia Ja
 nkiewicz.\n
