We prove that, to every abstract group $G$, we can associate a sequence of graphs $\Gamma_n$ such that the automorphism group of $\Gamma_n$ is isomorphic to $G$ and the genus of $\Gamma_n$ is an unbounded function of $n$.

Let $UVB_n$ and $UVP_n$ be the unrestricted virtual braid group and the unrestricted virtual pure braid group on n strands respectively. We study the groups $UVB_n$ and $UVP_n$, and our main results are as follows: for $n\geq 5$, we give a…

Countable Similarity Structure (CSS) groups are a class of generalized Thompson groups essentially introduced by Hughes. In this paper, we study CSS$^*$ groups, a subclass that includes the Higman-Thompson groups $V_{d,r}$, the countable…

Every finitely generated self-similar group naturally produces an infinite sequence of finite $d$-regular graphs $\Gamma_n$. We construct self-similar groups, whose graphs $\Gamma_n$ can be represented as an iterated zig-zag product and…

We describe a procedure for constructing a generalized Thompson group out of a family of groups that is equipped with what we call a cloning system. The previously known Thompson groups F, V, Vbr and Fbr arise from this procedure using,…

Totally positive (TP) and totally nonnegative (TN) matrices connect to analysis, mechanics, and to dual canonical bases in reductive groups, by well-known works of Schoenberg, Gantmacher-Krein, Lusztig, and others. TP matrices form a…

We study the outer automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$ with finite defining graph $\Gamma$. We construct a subnormal series for $Out(A_\Gamma)$ such that each consecutive quotient is either finite, free-abelian,…

We describe some of the geometric properties of the automorphism group Aut(F) of Thompson's group F. We give realizations of Aut(F) geometrically via periodic tree pair diagrams, which lead to natural presentations and give effective…

The Thompson group V is a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of the Cantor set. Brin defined higher dimensional Thompson groups nV as generalizations of V. We prove that nV has Serre's property FA, for every n. This is a generalization of…

Given a group $G$ acting faithfully on a set $S$, one gets a simple group denoted $SV_G$, called a twisted Brin--Thompson group. In this paper we drop the faithfulness assumption, and get an abstract version of a twisted Brin--Thompson…

We give a description of elementary subgroups (in the sense of first-order logic) of finitely generated virtually free groups. In particular, we recover the fact that elementary subgroups of finitely generated free groups are free factors.…

Let $G$ be a finite group. For each $m>1$ we define the symmetric canonical subset $S=S(m)$ of the Cartesian power $G^m$ and we consider the family of Cayley graphs $\mathscr{G}_m(G)=Cay(G^m,S)$. We describe properties of these graphs and…

This paper is about the structure of infinite primitive permutation groups and totally disconnected locally compact groups ("tdlc groups'"). The permutation groups we investigate are subdegree-finite (i.e. all orbits of point stabilisers…

We consider the problem of characterizing the class of those permutation groups that are the symmetry groups of Boolean functions. These are exactly the automorphism groups of hypergraphs. They are also called the relation groups. In this…

We explore the topological full group [[G]] of an essentially principal etale groupoid G on a Cantor set. When G is minimal, we show that [[G]] (and its certain normal subgroup) is a complete invariant for the isomorphism class of the etale…

This paper deals with graph automaton groups associated with trees and some generalizations. We start by showing some algebraic properties of tree automaton groups. Then we characterize the associated semigroup, proving that it is…

We study subgroups $H_U$ of the R. Thompson group $F$ which are stabilizers of finite sets $U$ of numbers in the interval $(0,1)$. We describe the algebraic structure of $H_U$ and prove that the stabilizer $H_U$ is finitely generated if and…

Recall that a group $G$ is said to be $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if every non-trivial element of $G$ belongs to a generating pair of $G$. Thompson's group $V$ was proved to be $\frac{3}{2}$-generated by Donoven and Harper in 2019. It was the…

Let $V$ be a vector space and $U$ a fixed subspace of $V$. We denote the semigroup of all linear transformations on $V$ under composition of functions by $L(V)$. In this paper, we study the semigroup of all linear transformations on $V$…

Following a procedure due to V. Jones, using suitably normalized elements in a Temperley-Lieb-Jones (planar) algebra we introduce a 3-parametric family of unitary representations of the Thompson's group $F$ equipped with canonical (vacuum)…
