We extend fundamental results of small cancellation theory to groups whose presentations satisfy the generalizations of the classical C(6) and C(7) conditions in graphical small cancellation theory. Using these graphical small cancellation…
We prove that the exceptional group $E_6(2)$ is not a Hurwitz group. In the course of proving this, we complete the classification up to conjugacy of all Hurwitz subgroups of $E_6(2)$, in particular, those isomorphic to $L_2(8)$ and…
We prove that infinitely presented classical $C(6)$ small cancellation groups are SQ-universal. We extend the result to graphical $Gr_*(6)$-groups over free products. For every $p\in\mathbb{N}$, we construct uncountably many pairwise…
We construct the finite-dimensional continuous complex representations of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over compact discrete valuation rings of even residual characteristic. We also prove that the complex group algebras of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ over finite…
For each $n$ we construct examples of finitely presented $C'(1/6)$ small cancellation groups that do not act properly on any $n$-dimensional CAT(0) cube complex.
In this paper, we prove that there does not exist a subgroup H of a finite group G such that the number of isomorphism classes of right transversals of H in G is two.
We construct new examples of CAT(0) groups containing non finitely presented subgroups that are of type $FP_2$, these CAT(0) groups do not contain copies of $\mathbb{Z}^3$. We also give a construction of groups which are of type $F_n$ but…
We consider groups defined by cyclic presentations where the defining word has length three and the cyclic presentation satisfies the T(6) small cancellation condition. We classify when these groups are hyperbolic. When combined with known…
By a result of Gersten and Short finite presentations satisfying the usual non-metric small cancellation conditions present biautomatic groups. We show that in the case in which all pieces have length one, a generalization of the C(3)-T(6)…
We exhibit normal subgroups of a free nilpotent group F of rank two and class three, which have isomorphic finite quotients but are not conjugate under any automorphism of F.
We give a new computer-assisted proof of the classification of maximal subgroups of the simple group ${}^2E_6(2)$ and its extensions by any subgroup of the outer automorphism group $S_3$. This is not a new result, but no earlier proof…
It is known that a cocompact special group $G$ does not contain $\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}$ if and only if it is hyperbolic; and it does not contain $\mathbb{F}_2 \times \mathbb{Z}$ if and only if it is toric relatively hyperbolic.…
Given a finite, connected 2-complex $X$ such that $b_2(X)\le1$ we establish two existence results for representations of the fundamental group of $X$ into compact connected Lie groups $G$, with prescribed values on certain loops. If…
In this paper we study the regular semigroups weakly generated by a single element x, that is, with no proper regular subsemigroup containing x. We show there exists a regular semigroup $F_1$ weakly generated by x such that all other…
Given a set $\mathcal{F}$ of finite groups, it is said that a group $G$ is an $\mathcal{F}$-cover if every group in $\mathcal{F}$ is isomorphic to a subgroup of $G$. Moreover, $G$ is a minimum $\mathcal{F}$-cover if there is no…
We prove the existence of a regular semigroup F(X) weakly generated by X such that all other regular semigroups weakly generated by X are homomorphic images of F(X). The semigroup F(X) is introduced by a presentation and the word problem…
We show that every countable group embeds in a group of type $FP_2$.
We study the way in which the abstract structure of a small overlap monoid is reflected in, and may be algorithmically deduced from, a small overlap presentation. We show that every C(2) monoid admits an essentially canonical C(2)…
We establish Flat Torus Theorem type results for groups acting on small cancellation complexes satisfying C(6), C(4)-T(4) and C(3)-T(6) conditions. For C(3)-T(6) complexes the result closely parallels the CAT(0) setting. For C(6) complexes…
We show that for any pair of non-trivial finite groups, their coproduct in the category of finite groups is not representable.
