We consider the class $\mathcal{R}$ of finitely generated toral relatively hyperbolic groups. We show that groups from $\mathcal{R}$ are commutative transitive and generalize a theorem proved by Benjamin Baumslag to this class. We also…

In a series of papers starting in [Sel01] and culminating in [Sel07], Z. Sela proved that free groups, and more generally torsion-free hyperbolic groups, have a stable first-order theory. The question of the stability of the free product of…

In this work, we are concerned with hierarchically hyperbolic spaces and hierarchically hyperbolic groups. Our main result is a wide generalization of a combination theorem of Behrstock, Hagen, and Sisto. In particular, as a consequence, we…

We consider embeddings in a torsion-free hyperbolic group which are elementary in the sense of first-order logic. We give a description of these embeddings in terms of Sela's hyperbolic towers. We deduce as a corollary that subgroups…

We study to what extent torsion-free (Gromov)-hyperbolic groups are elementarily equivalent to their finite index subgroups. In particular, we prove that a hyperbolic limit group either is a free product of cyclic groups and surface groups,…

We generalize a well known periodicity lemma from the case of free groups to the case of acylindrically hyperbolic groups. This generalization will be used later to describe solutions of certain equations in acylindrically hyperbolic groups…

We prove that the generalised word problem of a finitely generated subgroup of a finitely generated virtually free group is context-free, that a hyperbolic group must be virtually free if it has a torsion-free quasiconvex subgroup of…

We give a description of definable sets $P=(p_1,..., p_m)$ in a free non-abelian group $F$ and in a torsion-free non-elementary hyperbolic group $G$ that follows from our work on the Tarski problems. This answers Malcev's question for $F$.…

We generalize the small cancellation theory over hyperbolic groups developed by Olshanskii to the case of relatively hyperbolic groups. This allows us to construct infinite finitely generated groups with exactly $n$ conjugacy classes for…

We prove for non-elementary torsion-free hyperbolic groups $\Gamma$ and all $r\ge 2$ that the higher topological complexity ${\sf{TC}}_r(\Gamma)$ is equal to $r\cdot \mathrm{cd}(\Gamma)$. In particular, hyperbolic groups satisfy the…

A well known question of Gromov asks whether every one-ended hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ has a surface subgroup. We give a positive answer when $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a graph of free groups with cyclic edge groups. As a result,…

Tkachenko and Yaschenko [34] characterized the abelian groups G such that all proper unconditionally closed subsets of G are finite, these are precisely the abelian groups G having cofinite Zariski topology (they proved that such a G is…

In this work we investigate tensor completions of groups by associative rings, which were introduced by R.Lyndon and G.Baumslag in 1960s. The main result states that there exists an algorithm that decides if a given finite system of…

We prove that every finitely generated group $G$ discriminated by a locally quasi-convex torsion-free hyperbolic group $\Gamma$ is effectively coherent: that is, presentations for finitely generated subgroups can be computed from the…

We present a new notion of non-positively curved groups: the collection of discrete countable groups acting (AU-)acylindrically on finite products of $\delta$-hyperbolic spaces with general type factors. Inspired by the classical theory of…
