It has been proved recently by Moreto and Craven that the order of a finite group is bounded in terms of the largest multiplicity of its irreducible character degrees. A conjugacy class version of this result was proved for solvable groups…

In this paper we study arithmetical and structural features of a finite group that possesses exactly two conjugacy class sizes that are composite numbers.

Let $G$ be a finite group. An element $g$ of $G$ is called a vanishing element if there exists an irreducible character $\chi$ of $G$ such that $\chi(g) = 0$; in this case, we say that the conjugacy class of $g$ is a vanishing conjugacy…

We suggest a new approach to the study of relatively hyperbolic groups based on relative isoperimetric inequalities. Various geometric, algebraic, and algorithmic properties are discussed.

We show that for many semi-hyperbolic groups the decomposition into conjugacy classes of the Hochschild homology of the l^1-rapid decay group algebra is injective.

We study the class of all algebras that are isotopic to a Hurwitz algebra. Isomorphism classes of such algebras are shown to correspond to orbits of a certain group action. A complete, geometrically intuitive description of the category of…

For any odd prime $p$ we consider representations of a group of order $p$ in the symplectic group $Sp(p-1,Z[1/n])$ of $(p-1)\times(p-1)$-matrices over the ring $Z[1/n]$, $0\neq n\in N$. We construct a relation between the conjugacy classes…

We study the geometry of nonrelatively hyperbolic groups. Generalizing a result of Schwartz, any quasi-isometric image of a non-relatively hyperbolic space in a relatively hyperbolic space is contained in a bounded neighborhood of a single…

We describe the conjugacy classes of the elements of the free product of two groups and their centralizers and, as a consequence, we correct the calculation of the cyclic and periodic cyclic homology of the group ring of the free product of…

Given a group $G$, we write $x^G$ for the conjugacy class of $G$ containing the element $x$. A famous theorem of B. H. Neumann states that if $G$ is a group in which all conjugacy classes are finite with bounded size, then the derived group…

We introduce two refinements of the class of $5/2$-groups, inspired by the classes of automorphism groups of configurations and automorphism groups of unit circulant digraphs. We show that both of these classes have the property that any…

We prove that the topological complexity of a finite index subgroup of a hyperbolic group is linear in its index. This follows from a more general result relating the size of the quotient of a free cocompact action of hyperbolic group on a…

Let G be a group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups A, and it is also hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups B. Suppose that the collection A contains B. We characterize, for subgroups of G, when…

This paper overviews recent developments in the classification up to quasi-isometry of finitely generated groups, and more specifically of relatively hyperbolic groups.

Given a 2-manifold, a fundamental question to ask is which groups can be realized as the isometry group of a Riemannan metric of constant curvature on the manifold. In this paper, we give a nearly complete classification of such groups for…

We prove that if $H$ is a subgroup of index $n$ of any cyclic group $G$, then $G$ can be isometrically embedded in $(H^n, d_{_{Ham}}^n)$, thus generalizing previous results of Carlet (1998) for $G=\mathbb{Z}_{2^k}$ and Yildiz-\"Ozger (2012)…

Let $\Gamma$ be a word hyperbolic group with a cyclic JSJ decomposition that has only rigid vertex groups, which are all fundamental groups of closed surface groups. We show that any group $H$ quasi-isometric to $\Gamma$ is abstractly…

In this paper we study the relationship between the homology and homotopy of a space at infinity and at its boundary. Firstly, we prove that if a locally connected, connected, $\delta$-hyperbolic space that is acted upon geometrically by a…

We construct a hyperbolic group with a finitely presented subgroup, which has infinitely many conjugacy classes of finite-order elements. We also use a version of Morse theory with high dimensional horizontal cells and use handle…

A group $G$ is called subgroup conjugacy separable if for every pair of non-conjugate finitely generated subgroups of $G$, there exists a finite quotient of $G$ where the images of these subgroups are not conjugate. It is proved that the…
