A braided fusion category is said to have Property $\textbf{F}$ if the associated braid group representations factor over a finite group. We verify integral metaplectic modular categories have property $\textbf{F}$ by showing these…

In this paper we study the complexity of solving orientable quadratic equations in wreath products $A\wr B$ of finitely generated abelian groups. We give a classification of cases (depending on genus and other characteristics of a given…

In the 1980's K.S. Brown proved that the Houghton group $H_n$ is of type $\operatorname{F}_{n-1}$ but not $\operatorname{FP}_n$. We show that, provided $n\ge3$, the same conclusion holds for all subgroups $G$ of $H_n$ that are 'large' in…

Using the projection complex machinery, Bestvina-Bromberg-Fujiwara, Hagen-Petyt and Han-Nguyen-Yang prove that several classes of nonpositively-curved groups admit equivariant quasi-isometric embeddings into finite products of quasi-trees,…

We classify certain cases when the wreath products of distinct pairs of groups generate the same variety. This allows us to investigate the subvarieties of some nilpotent-by-abelian product varieties ${\mathfrak U}{\mathfrak V}$ with the…

It is shown that a finitely generated branch group has Serre's property (FA) if and only if it does not surject onto the infinite cyclic group or the infinite dihedral group. An example of a finitely generated self-similar branch group…

Let $G$ be a finite group, $A$ a finite abelian group. Each homomorphism $\phi:G\to A\wr S_n$ induces a homomorphism $\bar{\phi}:G\to A$ in a natural way. We show that as $\phi$ is chosen randomly, then the distribution of $\bar{\phi}$ is…

Let $(G_n,X_n)$ be a sequence of finite transitive permutation groups with uniformly bounded number of generators. We prove that the infinitely iterated permutational wreath product $...\wr G_2\wr G_1$ is topologically finitely generated if…

In recent years, knapsack problems for (in general non-commutative) groups have attracted attention. In this paper, the knapsack problem for wreath products is studied. It turns out that decidability of knapsack is not preserved under…

Given the large class of groups already known to be sofic, there is seemingly a shortfall in results concerning their permanence properties. We address this problem for wreath products, and in particular investigate the behaviour of more…

The RP-property of Fel'shtyn and Troitsky is proved for wreath products of finitely generated Abelian groups with the group of integers. Such wreath products become the first known example of finitely generated RP-groups being not almost…

In this paper, we show that wreath products of groups have linear divergence, and we generalise the argument to permutational wreath products. We also prove that Houghton groups $\mathcal{H}_m$ with $m\geq 2$ and Baumslag-Solitar groups…

Finitely generated (non-abelian) free metabelian pro-p groups, and wreath products of f.g. free abelian pro-p groups, are all finitely axiomatizable in the class of all profinite groups.

Let $A$ be a nilpotent $p$-group of finite exponent, and $B$ be an abelian $p$-groups of finite exponent. Then the wreath product $A {\rm Wr} B$ generates the variety ${\rm var}(A) {\rm var}(B)$ if and only if the group $B$ contains a…

We introduce a weak division-like property for noncommutative rings: a nontrivial ring is fadelian if for all nonzero $a,x$ there exist $b,c$ such that $x=ab+ca$. We prove properties of fadelian rings, and construct examples of such rings…
