A group $G$ has property $R_\infty$ if for every $\phi\in Aut(G)$, there are an infinite number of $\phi$-twisted conjugacy classes of elements in $G$. In this note, we determine the $R_\infty$-property for $G=\pi_1(M)$ for all geometric…
Let $f$ be an automorphism of a group $G$. Two elements $x, y$ in $G$ are said to be in the same $f$-twisted conjugacy class if there exists an element $z$ in $G$ such that $y=z x f(z^{-1})$. This is an equivalence relation known as…
If $\phi$ is an automorphism of a group $G$ and $x,y\in G$, we say that $x$ and $y$ are $\phi$-twisted conjugates if there exists an $z\in G$ such that $y=z.x.\phi(z^{-1})$. This is an equivalence relation. If there are infinitely many…

A group $G$ is said to have property $R_{\infty}$ if for every automorphism $\varphi \in {\rm Aut}(G)$, the cardinality of the set of $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes is infinite. Many classes of groups are known to have such property.…
Let $\phi:G\to G$ be an automorphism of an infinite group $G$. One has an equivalence relation $\sim_\phi$ on $G$ defined as $x\sim_\phi y$ if there exists a $z\in G$ such that $y=zx\phi(z^{-1})$. The equivalence classes are called…
In this paper we study twisted conjugacy classes and the $R_{\infty}$-property for classical linear groups. In particular, we prove that the general linear group ${\rm GL}_n(K)$ and the special linear group ${\rm SL}_n(K)$ possess…

We prove for residually finite groups the following long standing conjecture: the number of twisted conjugacy classes of an automorphism of a finitely generated group is equal (if it is finite) to the number of finite dimensional…
Given an automorphism $\phi:\Gamma\to \Gamma$, one has an action of $\Gamma$ on itself by $\phi$-twisted conjugacy, namely, $g.x=gx\phi(g^{-1})$. The orbits of this action are called $\phi$-twisted conjugacy classes. One says that $\Gamma$…
