Abstract

Given a finitely generated linear group $G$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, we construct a simple group $\Gamma$ that has the same finiteness properties as $G$ and admits $G$ as a quasi-retract. As an application, we construct a simple group of type $\mathrm{FP}_{\infty}$ that is not finitely presented. Moreover we show that for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ there is a simple group of type $\mathrm{FP}_n$ that is neither finitely presented nor of type $\mathrm{FP}_{n+1}$. Since our simple groups arise as R\"over--Nekrashevych groups, this answers a question of Zaremsky.
