Let G be a noncyclic group of order 4, and let K be the ring Z of rational integers, the localization of Z at the prime 2 and the ring of 2-adic integers, respectively. We describe, up to conjugacy, all of the indecomposable subgroups in…

We show that all finitely generated free-by-cyclic groups are conjugacy separable: if a finitely generated group $G$ surjects onto $\mathbb{Z}$ with free kernel, then for every pair of non-conjugate elements $g,h\in G$, there exists a…

Let $RG$ be the gruop ring of the group $G$ over ring $R$ and $\mathscr{U}(RG)$ be its unit group. Finding the structure of the unit group of a finite group ring is an old topic in ring theory. In, G. Tang et al: Unit Groups of Group…

The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the theory of profinite semigroups by considering the special class consisting of those all of whose finitely generated closed subsemigroups are countable, which are said to be locally…

In this paper we mainly consider the class LN of all locally nilpotent groups. We first show that there is no universal group in LN_lambda if lambda is a cardinal such that lambda = lambda^{aleph_0}; here we call a group G universal (in…

We show that a finitely generated subgroup of a free group, chosen uniformly at random, is strictly Whitehead minimal with overwhelming probability. Whitehead minimality is one of the key elements of the solution of the orbit problem in…

Given a finite group $G$ and positive integers $r$ and $s$, a problem of interest in algebra is determining the minimum cardinality of the product set $AB$, where $A$ and $B$ are subsets of $G$ such that $|A|=r$ and $|B|=s$. This problem…

Let $G$ be a non-discrete countable metrizable abelian topological group endowed with the coarse structure $ \mathcal{C} $ generated by compact subsets of $G$. We prove that $asdim (G, \mathcal{C} ) = \infty$. For an infinite cyclic…

An Engel sink of an element $g$ of a group $G$ is a set ${\mathscr E}(g)$ such that for every $x\in G$ all sufficiently long commutators $[...[[x,g],g],\dots ,g]$ belong to ${\mathscr E}(g)$. (Thus, $g$ is an Engel element precisely when we…

We construct elementary subgroups of all reductive groups of the local isotropic rank $\geq 2$ over rings and prove their basic properties. In particular, our results may be applied to the automorphism groups of any finitely generated…

We embed a countably categorical group G into a locally compact group c(G) with a non-trivial topology and study how topological properties of c(G) are connected with the structure of definable subgroups of G.

We study groups having the property that every non-abelian subgroup is equal to its normalizer. This class of groups is closely related to an open problem posed by Berkovich. We give a full classification of finite groups having the above…

An order is a commutative ring that as an abelian group is finitely generated and free. A commutative ring is reduced if it has no non-zero nilpotent elements. In this paper we use a new tool, namely, the fact that every reduced order has a…

We show that given a finitely generated LERF group $G$ with positive rank gradient, and finitely generated subgroups $A,B \leq G$ of infinite index, one can find a finite index subgroup $B_0$ of $B$ such that $[G : \langle A \cup B_0…

A group is Artinian if there is no infinite strictly descending chain of subgroups. Ol'shanskii has asked whether there are Artinian groups of arbitrarily large cardinality. We show that this problem is essentially the same as an analogous…

We exhibit free-by-cyclic groups containing non-free locally-free subgroups, including some word hyperbolic examples. We also show that these groups are not subgroup separable. We use Bestvina-Brady Morse theory in our arguments.

We discuss the finiteness of the topological entropy of continuous endomorphims for some classes of locally compact groups. Firstly, we focus on the abelian case, imposing the condition of being compactly generated, and note an interesting…

We investigate some situation in which automorphisms of a group G are uniquely determined by their restrictions to a proper subgroup H. Much of the paper is devoted to studying under which additional hypotheses this property forces G to be…

We show that $\omega$-categorical rings with NIP are nilpotent-by-finite. We prove that an $\omega$-categorical group with NIP and fsg is nilpotent-by-finite. We also notice that an $\omega$-categorical group with at least one strongly…

We apply the filtered and graded methods developed in earlier works to find (noncommutative) free group algebras in division rings. If $L$ is a Lie algebra, we denote by $U(L)$ its universal enveloping algebra. P. M. Cohn constructed a…
