For every finitely generated free group $F$, we construct an irreducible open $3$-manifold $M_F$ whose end set is homeomorphic to a Cantor set, and with the end homogeneity group of $M_F$ isomorphic to $F$. The end homogeneity group is the…

Given a group G, the model $\mathcal{G}(G,p)$ denotes the probability space of all Cayley graphs of G where each element of the generating set is chosen independently at random with probability p. In this article we show that for any…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of $\text{Sym}_n$, the symmetric group of degree $n$. For a fixed integer $l \geq 2$, the group $G$ presented with generators $x_1, x_2, \ldots ,x_n$ and with relations $x_{i_1}x_{i_2}\cdots x_{i_l} =x_{\sigma (i_1)}…

Suppose $G$ is a free product $G = A_1 * A_2* \cdots * A_k * F_N$, where each of the groups $A_i$ is torsion-free and $F_N$ is a free group of rank $N$. Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the deformation space associated to this free product…

We show that for any $n\geq 2$, two elements selected uniformly at random from a \emph{symmetrized} Euclidean ball of radius $X$ in $\textrm{SL}_n(\mathbb Z)$ will generate a thin free group with probability tending to $1$ as $X\rightarrow…

Skew morphisms, which generalise automorphisms for groups, provide a fundamental tool for the study of regular Cayley maps and, more generally, for finite groups with a complementary factorisation $G=BY$, where $Y$ is cyclic and core-free…

In this paper we introduce the concept of a Cayley graph automatic group (CGA group or graph automatic group, for short) which generalizes the standard notion of an automatic group. Like the usual automatic groups graph automatic ones enjoy…

For a formation $\mathfrak{F}$ of finite groups, tight connections are established between the pro-$\mathfrak{F}$-topology of a finitely generated free group $F$ and the geometry of the Cayley graph $\Gamma(\hat{F_{\mathfrak{F}}})$ of the…

Consider a uniform expanders family G_n with a uniform bound on the degrees. It is shown that for any p and c>0, a random subgraph of G_n obtained by retaining each edge, randomly and independently, with probability p, will have at most one…

A skew-morphism of a finite group $G$ is a permutation $\s$ on $G$ fixing the identity element, and for which there exists an integer function $\pi$ on $G$ such that $\s(xy)=\s(x)\s^{\pi(x)}(y)$ for all $x,y\in G$. It has been known that…

For which groups $G$ is it true that for all fields $k$, every non-monomial element of the group algebra $k\,G$ generates a proper $2$-sided ideal? The only groups for which we know this are the torsion-free abelian groups. We would like to…

Bootstrap percolation on an arbitrary graph has a random initial configuration, where each vertex is occupied with probability p, independently of each other, and a deterministic spreading rule with a fixed parameter k: if a vacant site has…

We present a proof of the following claim. Suppose that $n$ is an integer such that $n>1$ and that $k$ is any field. Suppose that $g$ is an element of $\mathrm{SL}(n,k)$ of infinite order. Then the set $\{h\in\mathrm{SL}(n,k)\mid <g,h>$ is…

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…

For a finite group $G$, let $\Delta(G)$ denote the character graph built on the set of degrees of the irreducible complex characters of $G$. Akhlaghi and Tong-Viet in \cite{[AT]} conjectured that if for some positive integer $n$,…

The algebras of Kleinian type are finite dimensional semisimple rational algebras $A$ such that the group of units of an order in $A$ is commensurable with a direct product of Kleinian groups. We classify the Schur algebras of Kleinian type…

This paper studies the generic behavior of $k$-tuple elements for $k\ge 2$ in a proper group action with contracting elements, with applications towards relatively hyperbolic groups, CAT(0) groups and mapping class groups. For a class of…

In this article we describe the $G\times G$-equivariant $K$-ring of $X$, where $X$ is a regular compactification of a connected complex reductive algebraic group $G$. Furthermore, in the case when $G$ is a semisimple group of adjoint type,…

We study statistical properties of random numerical semigroups of a given genus. We analyze the graph of a typical numerical semigroup, understood as a function from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$. If $S$ is a numerical semigroup of genus…

By using the links between generalized roundness, negative type inequalities and equivariant Hilbert space compressions, we obtain that the generalized roundness of the usual Cayley graph of finitely generated free groups and free abelian…
