This document is an exposition of an assortment of open problems arising from the exact enumeration of (perfect) matchings of finite graphs. Roughly half have been solved at the time of this writing; see the document "Twenty Open Problems…
We give an historical account, including recent progress, on some problems of Erd\H os in number theory.
This paper presents fifteen problems about mapping class groups. It is an expanded and updated version of the author's preprint "Ten problems on the mapping class groups". The paper will appear in the book "Problems on Mapping Class Groups…
This is an update of my problem list.
In this article we introduce and study a class of finite groups for which the orders of normal subgroups satisfy a certain inequality. It is closely connected to some well-known arithmetic classes of natural numbers.
There exist combable groups in which the conjugacy problem is unsolvable. The isomorphism problem is unsolvable for certain recursive sequences of finite presentations of combable groups.
We construct two finite groups of size $2^{365}\cdot 3^{105}\cdot 7^{104}$: a solvable group $G$ and a non-solvable group $H$, such that for every integer $n$ the groups have the same number of elements of order $n$. This answers a question…
After discussing two senses in which the notion of undecidability is used, we present a survey of undecidable decision problems arising in various branches of mathematics.
The show that the upper-left-corner problem and upper-right-corner problem for matrix groups with rational entries are undecidable. To reach this aim, we answer a question of Dixon from 1985 by proving the undecidability of the stabilizer…
We construct a class of finitely presented groups where the isomorphism problem is solvable but the commensurability problem is unsolvable. Conversely, we construct a class of finitely presented groups within which the commensurability…
In this paper I present some open problems on Coxeter groups and unimodality, together with the main partial results, and computational evidence, that are known about them.
A semigroup together with compatible partial order is called an odered semigroup. In this paper we discuss the ordered matrix semigroups.
We consider the growth, order, and finiteness problems for automaton (semi)groups. We propose new implementations and compare them with the existing ones. As a result of extensive experimentations, we propose some conjectures on the order…
(1) There is a finitely presented group with a word problem which is a uniformly effectively inseparable equivalence relation. (2) There is a finitely generated group of computable permutations with a word problem which is a universal…
A survey of problems, conjectures, and theorems about quasi-isometric classification and rigidity for finitely generated solvable groups.
This is the first one in a series of papers classifying the factorizations of almost simple groups with nonsolvable factors. In this paper we deal with almost simple linear groups.
This is a short survey of the progress on the congruence subgroup problem since the sixties when the first major results on the integral unimodular groups appeared. It is aimed at the non-specialists and avoids technical details.
In this paper we give a polynomial-time quantum algorithm for computing orders of solvable groups. Several other problems, such as testing membership in solvable groups, testing equality of subgroups in a given solvable group, and testing…
We construct a finitely presented group with undecidable word problem and with Dehn function bounded by a quadratic function on an infinite set of positive integers.
In this paper, we enumerate enumeration problems and algorithms. This survey is under construction. If you know some results not in this survey or there is anything wrong, please let me know.
