We introduce the notion of quasi-roots and study their uniqueness in right-angled Artin groups.

For a finite simplicial graph 𝚪, let G(𝚪) denote the right-angled Artin group on the complement graph of 𝚪. For path graphs P_k, cycle graphs C_ℓ and complete bipartite graphs K_n,m, this article characterizes the embeddability of G(K_n,m) in G(P_k) and in G(C_ℓ).

Let ${\Gamma}$ be a graph which contains two vertices $a$, $b$ with the same link. For the case where the link has less than 3 vertices, we prove that if the right-angled Artin group A(${\Gamma}$) contains a hyperbolic surface subgroup, then A(${\Gamma}$-{a}) contains a hyperbolic surface subgroup. Moreover, we also show that the same result holds with certain restrictions for the case where the link has more than or equal to 3 vertices.

We prove that if $\widehat{\Gamma}$ is a co-contraction of ${\Gamma}$, then the right-angled Coxeter group $C(\widehat{\Gamma})$ embeds into $C({\Gamma})$. Further, we provide a graph ${\Gamma}$ without an induced long cycle while $C({\Gamma})$ does not contain a hyperbolic surface group.

We show that a pseudo-Anosov map constructed as a product of the large power of Dehn twists of two filling curves always has a geodesic axis on the curve graph of the surface. We also obtain estimates of the stable translation length of a pseudo-Anosov map, when two filling curves are replaced by multicurves. Three main applications of our theorem are the following: (a) determining which word realizes the minimal translation length on the curve graph within a specific class of words, (b) giving a new class of pseudo-Anosov maps optimizing the ratio of stable translation lengths on the curve graph to that on Teichmüller space, (c) giving a partial answer of how much power is needed for Dehn twists to generate right-angled Artin subgroup of the mapping class group.
