Let $G$ be a finite non-cyclic, non-characteristically simple group with the property that all proper characteristic subgroups of $G$ are cyclic. We call such a group $\mathrm{CCS}$ group, short for \emph{Characteristic Cyclic}. In this…

Let $\Gamma$ be an undirected and simple graph. A set $ S $ of vertices in $\Gamma$ is called a {cyclic vertex cutset} of $\Gamma$ if $\Gamma - S$ is disconnected and has at least two components each containing a cycle. If $\Gamma$ has a…

Let $m,n,r$ be positive integers, and let $G=\langle a\rangle: \langle b\rangle \cong \mathbb{Z}_n: \mathbb{Z}_m$ be a split metacyclic group such that $b^{-1}ab=a^r$. We say that $G$ is {\em absolutely split with respect to $\langle…

An $\mathfrak{M}_C$ group is a group in which all chains of centralizers have finite length. In this article, we show that every nilpotent subgroup of an $\mathfrak{M}_C$ group is contained in a definable subgroup which is nilpotent of the…

We algebraically characterize free by cyclic groups that have coarse medians, and prove that this is equivalent to the a priori stronger properties of being colourable hierarchically hyperbolic groups and being quasi-isometric to CAT(0)…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the fundamental group of a finite graph of groups with infinite cyclic edge groups to be acylindrically hyperbolic, from which it follows that a finitely generated group splitting over Z…

A group is metabelian if its commutator subgroup is abelian. For finitely generated metabelian groups, classical commutative algebra, algebraic geometry and geometric group theory, especially the latter two subjects, can be brought to bear…

Purpose: To develop the algebraic foundation of finite commutative ternary $\Gamma$-semirings by identifying their intrinsic invariants, lattice organization, and radical behavior that generalize classical semiring and $\Gamma$-ring…

We give strengthened versions of the Herwig-Lascar and Hodkinson-Otto extension theorems for partial automorphisms of finite structures. Such strengthenings yield several combinatorial and group-theoretic consequences for homogeneous…

Marius T\u{a}rn\u{a}uceanu described the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-1$ cyclic subgroups. We describe the finite groups $G$ having $|G|-\Delta$ cyclic subgroups for $\Delta=2, 3, 4$ and $5$.

We show that the free-by-cyclic groups of the form F(2)-by-Z act properly cocompactly on CAT(0) square complexes. We also show using generalised Baumslag-Solitar groups that all known groups defined by a 2-generator 1-relator presentation…

We investigate structural properties of non-sofic groups, assuming that such groups exist. We introduce and study two classes: minimal non-sofic groups and $\omega$-non-sofic groups. For minimal non-sofic groups, we establish strong…

This paper studies the set of finite groups appearing as $\pi_1(M)/\pi_1(M)^{(n)}$, where $M$ is a closed, orientable 3-manifold and $\pi_1(M)^{(n)}$ denotes the $n$-th term of the derived series of $\pi_1(M)$. Our main result is that if…

We establish a general criterion for the finite presentability of subdirect products of groups and use this to characterize finitely presented residually free groups. We prove that, for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$, a residually free group is of…

We study the automorphism groups of free-by-cyclic groups and show these are finitely generated in the following cases: (i) when defining automorphism has linear growth and (ii) when the rank of the underlying free group has rank at most 3.…
