Let $\phi:G\to G$ be an automorphism of a group which is a free-product of finitely many groups each of which is freely indecomposable and two of the factors contain proper finite index characteristic subgroups. We show that $G$ has…

We provide two alternative ways to determine the number of (bi-)twisted conjugacy classes in a finite group: one by counting certain irreducible characters and one by counting certain twisted conjugacy classes of other endomorphisms. In…

In this short article, we prove that any automorphism of the R. Thompson's group $F$ has infinitely many twisted conjugacy classes. The result follows from the work of Matthew Brin, together with a standard facts on R. Thompson's group $F$,…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated polyfree group. If $G$ has nonzero Euler characteristic then we show that $Aut(G)$ has a finite index subgroup in which every automorphism has infinite Reidemeister number. For certain $G$ of length 2, we…

We show that an accessible group with infinitely many ends has property $R_{\infty}$. That is, it has infinitely many twisted conjugacy classes for any twisting automorphism. We deduce that having property $R_{\infty}$ is undecidable…

Suppose, $G$ is a residually finite group of finite upper rank admitting an automorphism $\varphi$ with finite Reidemeister number $R(\varphi)$ (the number of $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes). We prove that such $G$ is soluble-by-finite…

Let $f$ be an automorphism of a group $G$. Two elements $x, y$ in $G$ are said to be in the same $f$-twisted conjugacy class if there exists an element $z$ in $G$ such that $y=z x f(z^{-1})$. This is an equivalence relation known as…

Let G be a group and {\phi} be an automorphism of G. Two elements x, y of G are said to be {\phi}-twisted if y = gx{\phi}(g)^{-1} for some g in G. We say that a group G has the R_{\infty}-property if the number of {\phi}-twisted conjugacy…

A group $G$ is said to have property $R_{\infty}$ if for every automorphism $\varphi \in {\rm Aut}(G)$, the cardinality of the set of $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes is infinite. Many classes of groups are known to have such property.…

A group $G$ is twisted conjugacy separable if for every automorphism $\varphi$, distinct $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes can be separated in a finite quotient. Likewise, $G$ is completely twisted conjugacy separable if for any group $H$…

We consider twisted conjugacy classes of continuous automorphisms $\varphi$ of a Lie group $G$. We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition on $\varphi$ for its Reidemeister number, the number of twisted conjugacy classes, to be infinite…

Reidemeister (or twisted conjugacy) classes are considered in restricted wreath products of the form $G\wr \mathbb{Z}^k$, where $G$ is a finite group. For an automorphism $\varphi$ of finite order (supposed to be the same for the torsion…

A group is said to have the $R_\infty$ property if every automorphism has an infinite number of twisted conjugacy classes. We study the question whether $G$ has the $R_\infty$ property when $G$ is a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent…
