The graph structure of graph groups that are subgroups of Thompson's group $V$

Abstract: We determine exactly which graph products, also known as Right Angled Artin Groups, embed into Richard Thompson's group $V$. It was shown by Bleak and Salazar-Diaz that $\mathbb{Z}^2 * \mathbb{Z}$ was an obstruction. We show that this is the only obstruction. This is shown by proving a graph theory result giving an alternate description of simple graphs without an appropriate induced subgraph.
