We introduce a new real valued invariant for finitely presented groups called residual deficiency. Its main property is the following. Let G be a finitely presented group. If the residual deficiency of G is greater than one, then G has a…

We prove that for all $k,m,n \in \mathbb N \cup \{\infty\}$ with $4 \leq k \leq m \leq n$, there exists a finitely generated group $G$ with a finitely generated subgroup $H$ such that the asymptotic dimension of $G$ is $k$, the…

This paper studies effective separability for subgroups of finitely generated nilpotent groups and more broadly effective subgroup separability of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We provide upper and lower bounds that are polynomial…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $M(G)$ be the subgroup of $G$ generated by all non-central elements of $G$ that lie in the conjugacy classes of the smallest size. Recently several results have been proved regarding the nilpotency class of…

We introduce and systematically study a profile function whose asymptotic behavior quantifies the dimension or the size of a metric approximation of a finitely generated group $G$ by a family of groups $\mathcal{F}=\{(G_{\alpha},…

In this paper, we introduce the relative $n$-tensor nilpotent degree of a finite group $G$ with respect to a subgroup $H$ of $G$. The aim of this paper is to investigate this concept and give some results on this topic.

Let G be a finitely generated group with a given word metric. The asymptotic density of elements in G that have a particular property P is defined to be the limit, as r goes to infinity, of the proportion of elements in the ball of radius r…

The 'degree of k-step nilpotence' of a finite group G is the proportion of the tuples (x_1,...,x_{k+1}) in G^{k+1} for which the simple commutator [x_1,...,x_{k+1}] is equal to the identity. In this paper we study versions of this for an…

We study a family of finitely generated residually finite groups. These groups are doubles $F_2*_H F_2$ of a rank-$2$ free group $F_2$ along an infinitely generated subgroup $H$. Varying $H$ yields uncountably many groups up to isomorphism.

In this paper we study the residual solvability of the generalized free product of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We show that these kinds of structures are often residually solvable.

This paper is a continuation of the study on maximal and Frattini L-subgroups of an L-group. The normality of the maximal L-subgroups of a nilpotent L-group is explored. Then, the concept of finitely generated L-subgroup is introduced and…

We show that any isometric action of a residually finite group admits approximate local finite models. As a consequence, if $G$ is residually finite, every isometric $G$-action embeds isometrically into a metric ultraproduct of finite…

Let G be a finite non-nilpotent group such that every Sylow subgroup of G is generated by at most d elements, and such that p is the largest prime dividing |G|. We show that G has a non-nilpotent image G/N, such that N is characteristic and…

We prove an isoperimetric inequality for groups. As an application, we obtain lower bound on F{\o}lner functions in various nilpotent-by-cyclic groups. Under a regularity assumption, we obtain a characterization of F{\o}lner functions of…

A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is said to be an $IC\Phi$-subgroup of $G$ if $H \cap [H,G] \le \Phi(H)$. We analyze the structure of a finite group $G$ under the assumption that some given subgroups of $G$ are $IC\Phi$-subgroups of $G$. A new…

If $G$ and $H$ are finitely generated residually nilpotent groups, then $G$ and $H$ are in the same nilpotent genus if they have the same lower central quotients (up to isomorphism). A stronger condition is that $H$ is para-$G$ if there…
