In 1951, Higman constructed a remarkable group $$H=\left\langle a,b,c,d \, \left| \, b^a = b^2, c^b = c^2, d^c = d^2, a^d = a^2 \right. \right\rangle$$ and used it to produce the first examples of infinite simple groups. By studying fixed…

Power circuits are data structures which support efficient algorithms for highly compressed integers. Using this new data structure it has been shown recently by Myasnikov, Ushakov and Won that the Word Problem of the one-relator Baumslag…

For every finitely generated recursively presented group G we construct a finitely presented group H containing G such that G is (Frattini) embedded into H and the group H has solvable conjugacy problem if and only if G has solvable…

Recently, several public key exchange protocols based on symbolic computation in non-commutative (semi)groups were proposed as a more efficient alternative to well established protocols based on numeric computation. Notably, the protocols…

This paper continues the 2012 STACS contribution by Diekert, Ushakov, and the author. We extend the results published in the proceedings in two ways. First, we show that the data structure of power circuits can be generalized to work with…

Let $G$ be a classical group defined over a finite field. We consider the following fundamental problems concerning conjugacy in $G$: 1. List a representative for each conjugacy class of $G$. 2. Given $x \in G$, describe the centralizer of…

A classical conjecture by Graham Higman states that the number of conjugacy classes of $U_n(q)$, the group of upper triangular $n\times n$ matrices over $\mathbb{F}_q$, is polynomial in $q$, for all $n$. In this paper we present both…

We propose an algorithm which for any recursive group $G$, given by its effectively enumerable generators and recursively enumerable relations, outputs an explicit embedding of $G$ into a finitely presented group directly written by its…

Guba and Sapir asked if the simultaneous conjugacy problem was solvable in Diagram Groups or, at least, for Thompson's group F. We give a solution to the latter question using elementary techniques which rely purely on the description of F…

The conjugacy problem belongs to algorithmic group theory. It is the following question: given two words x, y over generators of a fixed group G, decide whether x and y are conjugated, i.e., whether there exists some z such that zxz^{-1} =…

The conjugacy problem for a finitely generated group $G$ is the two-variable problem of deciding for an arbitrary pair $(u,v)$ of elements of $G$, whether or not $u$ is conjugate to $v$ in $G$. We construct examples of finitely generated,…

The isomorphism problem of regular Higman-Thompson groups was solved in arXiv:1006.1759, via embedding it into the Leavitt algebra. In this paper, we will expand these results to embed the Higman-Thompson groups of unfolding trees of…

Let H and K be quasiconvex subgroups of a negatively curved torsion-free group G. We give an algorithm which decides whether an element of H is conjugated in G to an element of K.

This paper introduces gluing diagrams a combinatorial tool to construct homomorphisms between the shift pseudogroups of directed graphs and thus also their full groups of shifts. We will establish which of these diagrams produce…

We give a unified solution to the conjugacy problem for Thompson's groups F, T, and V. The solution uses strand diagrams, which are similar in spirit to braids and generalize tree-pair diagrams for elements of Thompson's groups. Strand…

We construct a class of finitely generated groups which have arbitrarily large conjugacy separability function, but in which the conjugacy problem can be solved in polynomial time, demonstrating that the McKinsey algorithm for the conjugacy…

In this paper we generalize techniques of Belk-Matucci to solve the conjugacy problem for every Thompson-like group $V_n(H)$, where $n \geq 2$ and $H$ is a subgroup of the symmetric group on $n$ elements. We use this to prove that, if $n…

In the context of Higman embeddings of recursive groups into finitely presented groups we suggest an algorithm which uses Higman operations to explicitly constructs the specific recursively enumerable sets of integer sequences arising…

We describe a method for solving the conjugacy problem in a vast class of rearrangement groups of fractals, a family of Thompson-like groups introduced in 2019 by Belk and Forrest. We generalize the methods of Belk and Matucci for the…

In this note, we provide a (super-exponential time) algorithm to solve the generalized conjugacy problem in relatively hyperbolic groups, given solvability of the generalized conjugacy problem in each of the parabolic subgroups.
