The power graph of a group $G$ is a simple and undirected graph with vertex set $G$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if one is a power of the other. In this article, we characterize (non-cyclic) finite groups of prime exponent and…
A constant spinal group is a subgroup of the automorphism group of a regular rooted tree, generated by a group of rooted automorphisms $A$ and a group of directed automorphisms $B$ whose action on a subtree is equal to the global action. We…
We establish a combination theorem for parafree groups. These groups were introduced by Baumslag in the sixties. One of the current motivations for a better understanding of their structure is that they show up naturally in connection with…
It is well known that not every finite group arises as the full automorphism group of some group. Here we show that the situation is dramatically different when considering the category of partial groups, ${{\mathcal P}art}$, as defined by…
For a group $G$ and a set $A$, let $\text{End}(A^G)$ be the monoid of all cellular automata over $A^G$, and let $\text{Aut}(A^G)$ be its group of units. By establishing a characterisation of surjunctuve groups in terms of the monoid…
We prove that any isometry of the graph of cyclic splittings of a finitely generated free group $F_N$ of rank $N\ge 3$ is induced by an outer automorphism of $F_N$. The same statement also applies to the graphs of maximally-cyclic…
Given a finite graph G there is a corresponding group given by the presentation with generators the vertices of G and a relation [x,y]=1 for generators x and y precisely when (x,y) is an edge of G. Such groups are known as partially…
We give a complete characterization of the graph products of cyclic groups admitting a Polish group topology, and show that they are all realizable as the group of automorphisms of a countable structure. In particular, we characterize the…
We prove Nielsen realisation for finite subgroups of the groups of untwisted outer automorphisms of RAAGs in the following sense: given any graph $\Gamma$, and any finite group $G\leqslant \mathrm{U}^0(A_\Gamma) \leqslant…
We conceive finite automata as dynamical systems on discontinuum and investigate their factors. Factors of finite automata include many well-known simple dynamical systems, e.g. hyperbolic systems and systems with finite attractors. In the…
The non-centralizer graph of a finite group $G$ is the simple graph $\Upsilon_G$ whose vertices are the elements of $G$ with two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if their centralizers are distinct. The induced subgroup of $\Upsilon_G$…
In this paper, we study some large scale properties of the mother groups of bounded automata groups. First we give two methods to prove every mother group has infinite asymptotic dimension. Then we study the decomposition complexity of…
The existence of an infinite simple boundedly generated 2-generated group and the existence of a boundedly simple 2-generated group containing a free non-cyclic subgroup are proved.
In this article we define the semigroup associated to a substitution. We use it to construct a minimal automaton which generates a substitution sequence u in reverse reading. We show, in the case where the substitution has a coincidence,…
We prove a few results about non-nilpotent graphs of symmetric groups $S_n$ -- namely that they have a Hamiltonian cycle and they satisfy a conjecture of Nongsiang and Saikia. The latter is likewise proven for alternating groups $A_n$. We…
We prove that every finitely generated soluble group which is not virtually abelian has a subgroup of one of a small number of types.
We prove that the boundary dynamics of the (semi)group generated by the enriched dual transducer characterizes the algebraic property of being free for an automaton group. We specialize this result to the class of bireversible transducers…
We show that an infinite group is definable in any non trivial geometric $C$-minimal structure which is definably maximal and does not have any definable bijection between a bounded interval and an unbounded one in its canonical tree. No…
We prove finiteness properties for groups of homeomorphisms that have finitely many "singular points", and we describe the normal structure of such groups. As an application, we prove that every countable abelian group can be embedded into…
This article is dedicated to the study of the acylindrical hyperbolicity of automorphism groups of graph products of groups. Our main result is that, if $\Gamma$ is a finite graph which contains at least two vertices and is not a join and…
