We give an exact formula for the number of normal subgroups of each finite index in the Baumslag-Solitar group BS(p,q) when p and q are coprime. Unlike the formula for all finite index subgroups, this one distinguishes different…

We compute estimates for the word metric of Baumslag--Solitar groups in terms of the Britton's lemma normal form. As a corollary, we find lower bounds for the growth rate for the groups $BS(p,q)$, with $1<p\le q$.

In this paper we give asymptotics for the conjugacy growth of the soluble Baumslag-Solitar groups $BS(1,k)$, $k\geq 2$, with respect to the standard generating set, by providing a complete description of geodesic conjugacy representatives.…

In this paper we classify Baumslag-Solitar groups up to commensurability. In order to prove our main result we give a solution to the isomorphism problem for a subclass of Generalised Baumslag-Solitar groups.

We study the HNN extension of $\mathbb{Z}^m$ given by the cubing endomorphism $g\mapsto g^3$, and prove that such groups have rational growth. To do so, we describe a method of computing the subgroup growth series of the horocyclic subgroup…

Let $\rm{Mod(S)}$ be the mapping class group of a closed orientable surface $S$ of genus $g \geq 2$. Let $G$ be a non-elementary subgroup of $\rm{Mod(S)}$ so that the associated Bowen-Margulis measure is finite. In this paper, we give an…

We give a general asymptotic formula for the growth rate of the number of indecomposable summands in the tensor powers of representations of finite groups, over a field of arbitrary characteristic. In characteristic zero we obtain…

This paper proves that in a non-elementary relatively hyperbolic group, the logarithm growth rate of any non-elementary subgroup has a linear lower bound by the logarithm of the size of the corresponding generating set. As a consequence,…

Let $G$ be an acylindrically hyperbolic group on a $\delta$-hyperbolic space $X$. Assume there exists $M$ such that for any finite generating set $S$ of $G$, the set $S^M$ contains a hyperbolic element on $X$. Suppose that $G$ is…

We give very precise bounds for the congruence subgroup growth of arithmetic groups. This allows us to determine the subgroup growth of irreducible lattices of semisimple Lie groups. In the most general case our results depend on the…

We study new asymptotic invariant of a pair consisting of a group and a subgroup, which we call Commensurizer Growth. We compute the commensurizer growth for several examples, concentrating mainly on the case of a locally compact…

This paper has two parts, on Baumslag-Solitar groups and on general G-trees. In the first part we establish bounds for stable commutator length (scl) in Baumslag-Solitar groups. For a certain class of elements, we further show that scl is…

A survey of results on the residual properties of Baumslag -- Solitar groups which have been obtained to date.

A condition is given, under which a general lattice point counting function is asymptotic to the corresponding ball volume growth function. This is then used to give height asymptotics in the style of the Batyrev-Manin Conjecture for…

We study the structure of generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups from the point of view of their (usually non-unique) splittings as fundamental groups of graphs of infinite cyclic groups. We find and characterize certain decompositions of…

We prove that for any prime $p\geq 3$ the minimal exponential growth rate of the Baumslag-Solitar group $BS(1,p)$ and the lamplighter group $\mathcal{L}_p=(\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})\wr \mathbb{Z}$ are equal. We also show that for $p=2$ this…

We give here the exact maximal subgroup growth of two classes of polycyclic groups. Let $G_k = \langle x_1, x_2, ..., x_k \mid x_ix_jx_i^{-1}x_j \text{ for all } i < j \rangle$. So $G_k = \mathbb{Z} \rtimes (\mathbb{Z} \rtimes (\mathbb{Z}…

In this paper, we prove the K- and L-theoretical Isomorphism Conjecture for Baumslag-Solitar groups with coefficients in an additive category.

We obtain asymptotic and exact formulae of growth functions for some families of $n$-valued coset groups. We also describe connections between the theory of $n$-valued groups and Symbolic Dynamics.

We compute the cogrowth series for Baumslag-Solitar groups $\mathrm{BS}(N,N) = < a,b | a^N b = b a^N > $, which we show to be D-finite. It follows that their cogrowth rates are algebraic numbers.
