    Hain, Richard (Ed.)
    Suppose a residually finite group G acts cocompactly on a contractible complex with strict fundamental domain Q, where the stabilizers are either trivial or have normal Z-subgroups. Let dQ be the subcomplex of Q with nontrivial stabilizers. Our main result is a computation of the homology torsion growth of a chain of finite index normal subgroups of G. We show that independent of the chain, the normalized torsion limits to the torsion of dQ shifted a degree. Under milder assumptions of acyclicity of nontrivial stabilizers, we show similar formulas for the mod p-homology growth. We also obtain formulas for the universal and the usual L^2-torsion of G in terms of the torsion of stabilizers and topology of dQ. In particular, we get complete answers for right-angled Artin groups, which shows that they satisfy a torsion analogue of Lück’s approximation theorem.
