We show that all finitely generated free-by-cyclic groups are conjugacy separable: if a finitely generated group $G$ surjects onto $\mathbb{Z}$ with free kernel, then for every pair of non-conjugate elements $g,h\in G$, there exists a…

Let $a$ be a non-invertible transformation of a finite set and let $G$ be a group of permutations on that same set. Then $\genset{G, a}\setminus G$ is a subsemigroup, consisting of all non-invertible transformations, in the semigroup…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $A$ be a normal subgroup of $G$. We denote by $ncc(A)$ the number of $G$-conjugacy classes of $A$ and $A$ is called $n$-decomposable, if $ncc(A)=n$. Set ${\cal K}_G = \{ncc(A)| A \lhd G \}$. Let $X$ be a…

We developed computer algebra tools for enumerating conjugacy classes of independent subsets and generating sets of symmetric groups up to $n=7$, and carried out an initial analysis of the obtained results.

This paper introduces and studies a notion of \emph{algorithmic randomness} for subgroups of rationals. Given a randomly generated additive subgroup $(G,+)$ of rationals, two main questions are addressed: first, what are the model-theoretic…

Let $G,D_{0},D_{1}$ be finite groups such that $D_{0}\trianglelefteq D_{1}$ are groups of automorphisms of $G$ that contain the inner automorphisms of $G$. Assume that $D_{1}/D_{0}$ has a normal $2$-complement and that $D_{1}$ acts…

It is conjectured that a class of n-fold integral transformations {I(alpha)|alpha in {C}} forms a mutually commutative family, namely, we have I(alpha) I(beta)=I(beta) I(alpha) for all alpha, beta in {C}. The commutativity of I(alpha) for…

Noether, Fleischmann and Fogarty proved that if the characteristic of the underlying field does not divide the order $|G|$ of a finite group $G$, then the polynomial invariants of $G$ are generated by polynomials of degrees at most $|G|$.…

We study a family of groups consisting of the simplest extensions of lamplighter groups. We use these groups to answer multiple open questions in combinatorial group theory, providing groups that exhibit various combinations of properties:…

Let $G$ be a finite non-abelian simple group, $C$ a non-identity conjugacy class of $G$, and $\Gamma_C$ the Cayley graph of $G$ based on $C \cup C^{-1}$. Our main result shows that in any such graph, there is an involution at bounded…

Let G be a finite group and H a normal subgroup such that G/H is cyclic. Given a conjugacy class g^G of G we define its centralizing subgroup to be HC_G(g). Let K be such that H\le K\le G. We show that the G-conjugacy classes contained in K…

Among the mutation finite cluster algebras the tubular ones are a particularly interesting class. We show that all tubular (simply laced) cluster algebras are of exponential growth by two different methods: first by studying the…

We establish several new bounds for the number of conjugacy classes of a finite group, all of which involve the maximal number c of conjugacy classes of a normal subgroup fixed by some element of a suitable subset of the group. To apply…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $N(G)$ be the set of its conjugacy class sizes. In the 1980's Thompson conjectured that the equality $N(G)=N(S)$, where $Z(G)=1$ and $S$ is simple, implies the isomorphism $G\simeq S$. In a series of papers of…
