We introduce a weak version of the classical length function, termed the weak length function, defined on subsets of $R$-modules over a unital ring $R$, and further consider the concept of mean weak length for $R\Gamma$-modules associated…

Let S be a generating set of a group G. We say that G has FINITE WIDTH relative to S if G=(S\cup S^{-1})^k for a suitable natural number k. We say that a group G is a group of FINITE C-WIDTH if G has finite width with respect to all…

There is a well-known presentation for finite and affine Weyl groups called the {\it presentation by conjugation}. Recently, it has been proved that this presentation holds for certain sub-classes of extended affine Weyl groups, the Weyl…

We examine the conjugacy growth series of all wreath products of the finitary permutation groups $\text{Sym}(X)$ and $\text{Alt}(X)$ for an infinite set $X$. We determine their asymptotics, and we characterize the limiting behavior between…

Let $G$ be a group. A subset $S$ of $G$ is said to normally generate $G$ if $G$ is the normal closure of $S$ in $G.$ In this case, any element of $G$ can be written as a product of conjugates of elements of $S$ and their inverses. If $g\in…

In a group $G$, elements $a$ and $b$ are conjugate if there exists $g\in G$ such that $g^{-1} ag=b$. This conjugacy relation, which plays an important role in group theory, can be extended in a natural way to inverse semigroups: for…

There are $k$ kinds of length $k$ hooks with different arm length. Actually, this $k$ kinds appear uniformly in Young diagrams of size $n$. The property ``appear uniformly'' is called super symmetric. We give a combinatorial proof of the…

Each element of the commutator subgroup of a group can be represented as a product of commutators. The minimal number of factors in such a product is called the commutator length of the element. The commutator length of a group is defined…

Regarding the conjugacy representation on symmetric groups, we initiate a normalized measure emerging from this representation, namely the conjugacy measure. A central limit theorem for character ratios of random representations of the…

We study an analogue of the conjugacy growth function in finitely generated groups: the automorphic growth function. This counts the number of automorphic orbits that intersect the ball of radius $n$ in the group. We show that this is not a…

Following the work done by Olshanskii for groups, we describe, for a given semigroup $S$, which functions $l : S \rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ can be realized up to equivalence as length functions $g \mapsto |g|_{H}$ by embedding $S$ into a…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of lengths of $\tor$ modules of homologies of complexes under the iterations of the Frobenius functor in positive characteristic. We first give upper bounds to this type of length functions in…

We give several necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of {\it the presentation by conjugation} for a non-simply laced extended affine Weyl group. We invent a computational tool by which one can determine simply the existence…

Suppose that a finitely generated group $G$ is hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups $\mathbb{P}=\{P_1,\dots,P_m\}$. Let $H_1,H_2$ be subgroups of $G$ such that $H_1$ is relatively quasiconvex with respect to $\mathbb{P}$ and…

We study groups $G$ where the $\varphi$-conjugacy class $[e]_{\varphi}=\{g^{-1}\varphi(g)~|~g\in G\}$ of the unit element is a subgroup of $G$ for every automorphism $\varphi$ of $G$. If $G$ has $n$ generators, then we prove that the $k$-th…

In this paper we explore relationships between divergence and thick groups, and with the same techniques we estimate lengths of shortest conjugators. We produce examples, for every positive integer n, of CAT(0) groups which are thick of…

Geodesics and curvature of semidirect product groups with right invariant metrics are determined. In the special case of an isometric semidirect product, the curvature is shown to be the sum of the curvature of the two groups. A series of…

In any Coxeter group, the conjugates of elements in its Coxeter generating set are called reflections and the reflection length of an element is its length with respect to this expanded generating set. In this article we give a simple…

The asymptotic bound for a length-based attack on the Conjugacy Search Problem in relatively hyperbolic groups is cubic for hyperbolic elements and a "small" polynomial for parabolic elements, depending on the Conjugacy Search Problem for…

For a restricted wreath product $G\wr \mathbb{Z}^k$, where $G$ is a finite abelian group, we determine (almost in all cases) whether this product has the $R_\infty$ property (i.e., each its automorphism has infinite Reidemeister number).
