The aim of this chapter is to provide an adequate graph theoretic framework for the description of periodic bifurcations which have recently been discovered in descendant trees of finite p-groups. The graph theoretic concepts of rooted…

We prove that in every finitely generated profinite group, every subgroup of finite index is open; this implies that the topology on such groups is determined by the algebraic structure. This is deduced from the main result about finite…

Given a finite simplicial graph $\Gamma=(V,E)$ with a vertex-labelling $\varphi:V\rightarrow\left\{\text{non-trivial finitely generated groups}\right\}$, the graph product $G_\Gamma$ is the free product of the vertex groups $\varphi(v)$…

It is well-known that a homomorphism p between topological groups K, G is a covering homomorphism if and only if p is an open epimorphism with discrete kernel. In this paper we generalize this fact, in precisely, we show that for a…

We determine the closure of a cyclic subgroup $H$ of a free group for the pro-{\bf V} topology when {\bf V} is an extension-closed pseudovariety of finite groups. We show that $H$ is always closed for the pro-nilpotent topology and compute…

We prove that any closed connected exact Lagrangian manifold L in a connected cotangent bundle T*N is up to a finite covering space lift a homology equivalence. We prove this by constructing a fibrant parametrized family of ring spectra FL…

We prove that the property of being cyclic subgroup separable, that is having all cyclic subgroups closed in the profinite topology, is preserved under forming graph products. Furthermore, we develop the tools to study the analogous…

For a graph $G$ and a hereditary property $\mathcal{P}$, let $\text{ex}(G,\mathcal{P})$ denote the maximum number of edges of a subgraph of $G$ that belongs to $\mathcal{P}$. We prove that for every non-trivial hereditary property…

For a finitely generated free group F_n, of rank at least 2, any finite subgroup of Out(F_n) can be realized as a group of automorphisms of a graph with fundamental group F_n. This result, known as Out(F_n) realization, was proved by…

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface and $G$ a finite group of orientation preserving automorphisms of $S$ whose orbit space has genus at least $2$. There is a natural group homomorphism from the $G$-centralizer in $Diff^+(S)$ to the…

We show that a continuous map $f$ from a quasi-graph $G$ to itself is pointwise recurrent if and only if one of the following two statements holds: (1) $X$ is a simple closed curve and $f$ is topologically conjugate to an irrational…

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a collection of $r$-uniform hypergraphs, and let $0 < p < 1$. It is known that there exists $c = c(p,\mathcal{F})$ such that the probability of a random $r$-graph in $G(n,p)$ not containing an induced subgraph from…

For a finite connected graph $\mathcal{E}$ with set of edges $E$, a finite $E$-generated group $G$ is constructed such that the set of relations $p=1$ satisfied by $G$ (with $p$ a word over $E\cup E^{-1}$) is closed under deletion of…

For a connected graph L, let G(L) be a group with generators the vertex set of L, subject only to the relations that the ends of each edge commute. Now let H(L) be the kernel of the homomorphism from G(L) to the integers that takes each…

We prove that every finitely generated, residually finite group $G$ embeds into a finitely generated perfect branch group $\Gamma$ such that many properties of $G$ are preserved under this embedding. Among those are the properties of being…

We explore the existence of homomorphisms between outer automorphism groups of free groups Out(F_n) \to Out(F_m). We prove that if n > 8 is even and n \neq m \leq 2n, or n is odd and n \neq m \leq 2n - 2, then all such homomorphisms have…

Let K be a number field, t a parameter, F=K(t) and f in K[x] a polynomial of degree d. The polynomial P_n(x,t)= f^n(x) - t in F[x] where f^n is the n-fold iterate of f, is absolutely irreducible over F; we compute a recursion for its…

A class K of finite structures is said to have the extension property for automorphisms (EP) if for every A in K there exists an extension B in K such that every partial isomorphism on the structure A extends to an automorphism of B.…

We investigate the structure of subdirect products of groups, particularly their finiteness properties. We pay special attention to the subdirect products of free groups, surface groups and HNN extensions. We prove that a finitely presented…

It is known that the canonical double cover of any connected nonbipartite graph have an automorphism group of the form $H \rtimes \mathbb{Z}_2$, where $H$ is the set of automorphism which preserve bipartite parts. We construct connected…
