The purpose of this paper is to study the properties of the irrational-slope Thompson's group $F_\tau$ introduced by Cleary in 1995. We construct presentations, both finite and infinite and we describe its combinatorial structure using…

We use a method of Bieri, Geoghegan and Kochloukova to calculate the BNSR-invariants for the irrational slope Thompson's group $F_{\tau}$. To do so we establish conditions under which the Sigma invariants coincide with those of a subgroup…

We provide two ways to show that the R. Thompson group $F$ has maximal subgroups of infinite index which do not fix any number in the unit interval under the natural action of $F$ on $(0,1)$, thus solving a problem by D. Savchuk. The first…

In this short note, we show that R. Thompson's group $F$ admits a normalish amenable subgroup, and that the standard copy of $F$ in R. Thompson's group $T$ is normalish in $T$. We further conjecture that if $F$ is non-amenable, then $T$…

Jones introduced unitary representations for the Thompson groups $F$ and $T$ from a given subfactor planar algebra. Some interesting subgroups arise as the stabilizer of certain vector, in particular the Jones subgroups $\vec{F}$ and…

Following a procedure due to V. Jones, using suitably normalized elements in a Temperley-Lieb-Jones (planar) algebra we introduce a 3-parametric family of unitary representations of the Thompson's group $F$ equipped with canonical (vacuum)…

We introduce the concept of a generic Euclidean triangle $\tau$ and study the group $G_\tau$ generated by the reflection across the edges of $\tau$. In particular, we prove that the subgroup $T_\tau$ of all translations in $G_\tau$ is free…

We show that one can naturally describe elements of R. Thompson's finitely presented infinite simple group $V$, known by Thompson to have a presentation with four generators and fourteen relations, as products of permutations analogous to…

We provide the first example of a finitely presented (in fact, type $F_\infty$) group with elements whose stable commutator length is algebraic and irrational, answering a question of Calegari. Our example is the lift to the real line of…

We introduce the concept of a type system~$\Part$, that is, a partition on the set of finite words over the alphabet~$\{0,1\}$ compatible with the partial action of Thompson's group~$V$, and associate a subgroup~$\Stab{V}{\Part}$ of~$V$. We…

This article proves a version of the Feit-Thompson theorem for simple groups of finite Morley rank: a connected groups of finite Morley rank with a finite Sylow 2-subgroup has a trivial Sylow 2-subgroups.

It is a long standing open problem whether the Thompson group $F$ is an amenable group. In this paper we show that if $A$, $B$, $C$ denote the standard generators of Thompson group $T$ and $D:=C B A^{-1}$ then…

A few years ago the so-called oriented subgroup $\vec F$ of the Thompson group $F$ was introduced by V. Jones while investigating the connections between subfactors and conformal field theories. In the coding of links and knots by elements…

In a previous paper, we defined a higher dimensional analog of Thompson's group V, and proved that it is simple, infinite, finitely generated, and not isomorphic to any of the known Thompson groups. There are other Thompson groups that are…

We prove that the Brin-Thompson groups sV, also called higher dimensional Thompson's groups, are of type F_\infty for all natural numbers s. This result was previously shown for s up to 3, by considering the action of sV on a naturally…

We prove that the tree almost automorphism groups admit exactly three commensurability classes of closed commensurated subgroups. Our proof utilizes an independently interesting characterization of subgroups of the tree almost automorphism…

The authors classify the finite index subgroups of R. Thompson's group $F$. All such groups that are not isomorphic to $F$ are non-split extensions of finite cyclic groups by $F$. The classification describes precisely which finite index…

Motivated by Burillo, Cleary and Roever's summary on obstructions of subgroups of Thompson's group $V,$ we explored the higher dimensional version of the groups, Brin-Thompson groups $nV$ and $SV,$ a class of infinite dimensional…

We consider a class of groups $V_n(G)$ which are supergroups of the Higman-Thompson groups $V_n$. These groups fit in a framework of Elizabeth Scott for generating infinite virtually simple groups, and the groups we study in particular are…

In this paper we revisit the description of all verbal subgroups of the group of automorphisms of a regular rooted tree $\mathcal{T}_d$, for $d>2$ and odd.
