We introduce the subgroup identification problem, and show that there is a finitely presented group G for which it is unsolvable, and that it is uniformly solvable in the class of finitely presented locally Hopfian groups. This is done as…

We demonstrate the existence of a family of finitely generated subgroups of Richard Thompson's group $F$ which is strictly well-ordered by the embeddability relation in type $\epsilon_0 +1$. All except the maximum element of this family…

Richard Thompson's group F is the group of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval with a finite number of break points, all at dyadic rational numbers (their denominators are powers of 2) and with slopes which are powers of 2.…

The study of localizations of groups has concentrated on group theoretic properties which are preserved by localization. In this paper we look at finitely generated soluble groups and determine when the local groups associated with them are…

We show that in a Morse local-to-global group where stable subgroups are separable, the product of any stable subgroups is separable. As an application, we show that the product of stable subgroups in virtually special groups is separable.

We construct a solvable group G of order 5648590729620 such that the set of element orders of G coincides with that of the simple group S(4,3). This completes the determination of finite simple groups isospectral to solvable groups.

Let FL_s(K) be the finitary linear group of degree s over an associative ring K with unity. We prove that the torsion subgroups of FL_s(K) are locally finite for certain classes of rings K. A description of some f.g. solvable subgroups of…

Over each nontrivial finite group $G$, there exists a finite system of equations having no solutions in larger finite groups but having a solution in a periodic group containing $G$. We prove several similar facts about amenable, orderable,…

A locally testable semigroup S is a semigroup with the property that for some nonnegative integer k, called the order or level of local testability, two words u and v in some set of generators for semigroup S are equal in the semigroup if…

This paper aims at studying solvable-by-finite and locally solvable maximal subgroups of an almost subnormal subgroup of the general skew linear group $\GL_n(D)$ over a division ring $D$. It turns out that in the case where $D$ is…

We suggest an extension of a certain logarithm of the total Johnson map in terms of solvable Lie groups. Here, the domain of the map is extended to a subset consisting of exponential solvable elements in the mapping class group of a…

We analyze the structure of locally compact groups which can be built up from p-adic Lie groups, for p in a given set of primes. In particular, we calculate the scale function and determine tidy subgroups for such groups, and use them to…

In this paper, we show that a locally graded group with a finite number m of non-(nilpotent of class at most n) subgroups is (soluble of class at most [log2(n)] + m + 3)-by-(finite of order $\le$ m!). Also we show that the derived length of…

We observe a correspondence between collections of closed subgroups and normal subgroups in totally disconnected locally compact groups. This correspondence is applied to prove structure theorems for two classes of totally disconnected…

By a recent result of Juh\'{a}sz and van Mill, a locally compact topological group whose dense subspaces are all separable is metrizable. In this note we investigate the following question: is every locally compact group having all dense…

A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G= \langle s^{g(s)} | s \in S\rangle$ for every choice of $g(s) \in G,s \in S$. We say that a group $G$ is invariably generated if such $S$ exists, or equivalently if $S=G$ invariably…

In this paper, we focus on a question of M. Newman on isomorphic subgroups of solvable groups. We get a reduction theorem of this question: for each prime q, assume that this question holds for every characteristic q-groups, then this…

Ulam asked whether all Lie groups can be represented faithfully on a countable set. We establish a reduction of Ulam's problem to the case of simple Lie groups. In particular, we solve the problem for all solvable Lie groups and more…

We prove a result on the asymptotic proportion of randomly chosen pairs of permutations in the symmetric group $S_n$ which "invariably" generate a nonsolvable subgroup, i.e., whose cycle structures cannot possibly both occur in the same…

In this short note, we show that R. Thompson's group $F$ admits a normalish amenable subgroup, and that the standard copy of $F$ in R. Thompson's group $T$ is normalish in $T$. We further conjecture that if $F$ is non-amenable, then $T$…
