Abstract

We study fixed point properties of the automorphism group of the universal Coxeter group Aut(Wn). In particular, we prove that whenever Aut(Wn) acts by isometries on complete d-dimensional CAT(0) space with d<⌊n2⌋, then it must fix a point. We also prove that Aut(Wn) does not have Kazhdan’s property (T). Further, strong restrictions are obtained on homomorphisms of Aut(Wn) to groups that do not contain a copy of Sym(n).
