In this article we provide an algebraic characterization of those groups of $PSL(3,\Bbb{C})$ whose limit set in the Kulkarni sense has, exactly, four lines in general position. Also we show that, for this class of groups, the equicontinuity…

Let $G$ be a relatively hyperbolic group that admits a decomposition into a finite graph of relatively hyperbolic groups structure with quasi-isometrically (qi) embedded condition. We prove that the set of conjugates of all the vertex and…

In the space of marked group, we determine the structure of groups which are limit points of the set of all generalized quaternion groups.

Landau's theorem on conjugacy classes asserts that there are only finitely many finite groups, up to isomorphism, with exactly $k$ conjugacy classes for any positive integer $k$. We show that, for any positive integers $n$ and $s$, there…

Given a group $G$, we write $g^G$ for the conjugacy class of $G$ containing the element $g$. A theorem of B. H. Neumann states that if $G$ is a group in which all conjugacy classes are finite with bounded size, then the commutator subgroup…

Given two conjugate mapping classes f and g, we produce a conjugating element w such that |w| < K(|f|+|g|), where |.| denotes the word metric with respect to a fixed generating set, and K is a constant depending only on the generating set.…

Given a group $G$ we write $h(G)$ to denote the maximum number of times that a field extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ appears as the field of values of a conjugacy class of a group. In this work, we prove that $|G|$ is bounded in terms of $h(G)$.…

We give explicit, practical conditions that determine whether or not a closed, connected subgroup H of G = SU(2,n) has the property that there exists a compact subset C of G with CHC = G. To do this, we fix a Cartan decomposition G = K A K…

We extend to alternating groups $A_n$ several results about symmetric groups asserting that under various conditions on a conjugacy class, or more generally, a normal subset, $C$ of $S_n$, we have $C^2 \supseteq A_n\setminus\{1\}$

We give very precise bounds for the congruence subgroup growth of arithmetic groups. This allows us to determine the subgroup growth of irreducible lattices of semisimple Lie groups. In the most general case our results depend on the…

We study limits of convergent sequences of string graphs, that is, graphs with an intersection representation consisting of curves in the plane. We use these results to study the limiting behavior of a sequence of random string graphs. We…

We extend to an arbitrary number field the best known bounds towards the Ramanujan conjecture for the groups GL(n), n=2, 3, 4. In particular, we present a technique which overcomes the analytic obstacles posed by the presence of an infinite…

In this paper, we give a complete description of the representations of all upper triangular complex Kleinian subgroups of PSL(3,C). In https://doi.org/10.1007/s00574-021-00254-9 we show that any solvable group is virtually triangularizable…

We show that in the extended modular group PGL(2,Z) there are exactly seven finite subgroups up to conjugacy; three subgroups of size 2, one subgroup each of size 3, 4, and 6, and the trivial subgroup of size 1.

We establish a sharp lower-bound for the number of conjugacy classes $k(A_n)$ in the alternating group $A_n$, for $n \geq 3$. Namely, we show that $k\left(A_n\right) \geq \frac{k\left(A_7\right)}{\log_2\left|A_7\right|} \cdot…

Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group, where $p$ is a prime number, and $a\in G$. Denote by $\Cl(a)=\{gag^{-1}\mid g\in G\}$ the conjugacy class of $a$ in $G$. Assume that $|\Cl(a)|=p^n$. Then $\Cl(a)\Cl(a^{-1})=\{xy\mid x\in \Cl(a), y\in…

We give a description of several representation varieties of the fundamental group of the complement of the figure eight knot in PGL(3,C) or SL(3,C). We moreover obtain an explicit parametrization of matrices generating the representation…

In his paper "Finite groups have many conjugacy classes" (J. London Math. Soc (2) 46 (1992), 239-249), L. Pyber proved the to date best general lower bounds for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group in terms of the order of the…

A finite group $G$ is said to satisfy $C_\pi$ for a set of primes $\pi$, if $G$ possesses exactly one class of conjugate $\pi$-Hall subgroups. In the paper we obtain a criterion for a finite group $G$ to satisfy $C_\pi$ in terms of a normal…

We study widths of conjugacy classes in anisotropic higher rank $S$-arithmetic groups of orthogonal type. Assuming the GRH, we prove that many such groups have bounded conjugacy width. For example, this holds if the degree is greater or…
