Abstract:Given a finitely presented group $H$, finitely generated subgroup $B$ of $H$, and a monomorphism $\psi :B\to H$, we obtain an upper bound of the Dehn function of the corresponding HNN-extension $G=\langle H, t \vert t^{-1}Bt=\psi (B)\rangle $ in terms of the Dehn function of $H$ and the distortion of $B$ in $G$. Using such a bound, we construct first examples of non-polycyclic solvable groups with polynomial Dehn functions. The constructed groups are metabelian and contain the solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups. In particular, this answers a question posed by Birget, Ol'shanskii, Rips, and Sapir.

Keywords:Dehn function  isoperimetric function  HNN-extension  van Kampen diagram  metabelian group
