If C is a class of complexes closed under taking full subcomplexes and covers and G is the class of groups admitting proper and cocompact actions on one-connected complexes in C , then G is closed under taking finitely presented subgroups. As a consequence the following classes of groups are closed under taking finitely presented subgroups: groups acting geometrically on regular CAT.0/ simplicial complexes of dimension 3, k‐systolic groups for k 6, and groups acting geometrically on 2‐dimensional negatively curved complexes. We also show that there is a finite non-positively curved cubical 3‐complex that is not homotopy equivalent to a finite non-positively curved regular simplicial 3‐complex. We include applications to relatively hyperbolic groups and diagrammatically reducible groups. The main result is obtained by developing a notion of equivariant towers, which is of independent interest.
