We provide an explicit construction that allows one to easily decompose a graph braid group as a graph of groups. This allows us to compute the braid groups of a wide range of graphs, as well as providing two general criteria for a graph…

We prove that the conjugacy problem in the first Grigorchuck group $\Gamma$ can be solved in linear time. Furthermore, the problem to decide if a list of elements $w_1,\ldots,w_k\in\Gamma$ contains a pair of conjugate elements can be solved…

In this note, we provide a (super-exponential time) algorithm to solve the generalized conjugacy problem in relatively hyperbolic groups, given solvability of the generalized conjugacy problem in each of the parabolic subgroups.

Given a finite graph G there is a corresponding group given by the presentation with generators the vertices of G and a relation [x,y]=1 for generators x and y precisely when (x,y) is an edge of G. Such groups are known as partially…

We reduce a strong version of the twist conjecture for Artin groups to Artin groups whose defining graphs have no separating vertices. This produces new examples of Artin groups satisfying the conjecture, and sheds more light on the…

We characterize, in terms of the defining graph, when a twisted right-angled Artin group (a group whose only relations among pairs of generators are either commuting or Klein-bottle type relations) is left-orderable.

For every finitely generated recursively presented group G we construct a finitely presented group H containing G such that G is (Frattini) embedded into H and the group H has solvable conjugacy problem if and only if G has solvable…

We show that the outer automorphism groups of graph products of finitely generated abelian groups satisfy the Tits alternative, are residually finite, their so-called Torelli subgroups are finitely generated, and they satisfy a dichotomy…

One can observe that Coxeter groups and right-angled Artin groups share the same solution to the word problem. On the other hand, in his study of reflection subgroups of Coxeter groups Dyer introduces a family of groups, which we call Dyer…

We prove using a novel random matrix model that all right-angled Artin groups have a sequence of finite dimensional unitary representations that strongly converge to the regular representation. We deduce that this result applies also to:…

We investigate the $G$-representation varieties of right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs) for various Lie groups $G$. We show these varieties are connected for a large class of such $G$, including $\mathrm{SU}(n), \mathrm{Sp}(n)$ and…

A theorem of Brady and Meier states that a right-angled Artin group is a duality group if and only if the flag complex of the defining graph is Cohen--Macaulay. We use this to give an example of a RAAG with the property that its outer…

We compute conjugacy classes in maximal parabolic subgroups of the general linear group. This computation proceeds by reducing to a ``matrix problem''. Such problems involve finding normal forms for matrices under a specified set of row and…

We begin by establishing two fundamental results on standard parabolic subgroups of virtual Artin groups. We first show that a standard parabolic subgroup is naturally isomorphic to a virtual Artin group. Second, we prove that the…

The aim of the present note is to construct invariants of the Artin braid group valued in $G_{N}^{2}$, and further study of groups related to $G_{n}^{3}$. In the groups $G_{n}^{2}$, the word problem is solved; these groups are much simpler…

We study the class N of graphs, the right-angled Artin groups defined on which do not contain surface subgroups. We prove that a presumably smaller class N' is closed under amalgamating along complete subgraphs, and also under adding…
