We describe the groups that have the same holomorph as a finite perfect group. Our results are complete for centerless groups. When the center is non-trivial, some questions remain open. The peculiarities of the general case are illustrated…

In this note we establish the following result (announced in a previous work): if a linear group is the image of a representation of a K\"ahler group, then it has a finite index subgroup which is the image of a representation of the…

We study systematically groups whose marked finite quotients form a recursive set. We give several definitions, and prove basic properties of this class of groups, and in particular emphasize the link between the growth of the depth…

This paper aims to investigate the self-similarity property in finitely-generated torsion-free nilpotent groups. We establish connections between geometric equivalence and self-similarity in these groups. Moreover, we show that any…

By recognizing them as fundamental groups of developable complexes of groups we prove that mapping class groups of compact orientable surfaces have finite asymptotic dimension.

If $G$ is a group and $S$ a generating set, $G$ canonically embeds into the automorphism group of its Cayley graph and it is natural to try to minimize, over all generating sets, the index of this inclusion. This infimum is called the…

We give a new characterization of partial groups as a subcategory of symmetric (simplicial) sets. This subcategory has an explicit reflection, which permits one to compute colimits in the category of partial groups. We also introduce the…

We present a structural description of finite nilpotent groups of class at most $2$ using a specified number of subdirect and central products of $2$-generated such groups. As a corollary, we show that all of these groups are isomorphic to…

Building upon the author's previous work on primitivity testing of finite nilpotent linear groups over fields of characteristic zero, we describe precisely those finite nilpotent groups which arise as primitive linear groups over a given…

We consider a category whose morphisms are bordisms of $n$-dimensional pseudomanifolds equipped with a certain additional structure (coloring). On the other hand, we consider the product $G$ of $(n+1)$ copies of infinite symmetric group. We…

We prove that every finitely generated nilpotent group of class c admits a polynomial isoperimetric function of degree c+1 and a linear upper bound on its filling length function.

We give a new proof of Gromov's theorem that any finitely generated group of polynomial growth has a finite index nilpotent subgroup. Unlike the original proof, it does not rely on the Montgomery-Zippin-Yamabe structure theory of locally…

We prove that if a group is nilpotent (resp. metabelian), then so is the subgroup of its automorphism group generated by all polynomial automorphisms.

This paper presents analogous results of Hua [7][8] on numbers of representations of quivers over finite fields which respect nilpotent relations under certain assumptions. A closed formula which counts isomorphism classes of absolutely…

We study fundamental groups of non compact Riemannian manifolds. We find conditions which ensure that the fundamental group is trivial, finite or finitely generated.

We consider the dimensions of finite type of representations of a partially ordered set, i.e. such that there is only finitely many isomorphism classes of representations of this dimension. We give a criterion for a dimension to be of…

It is well known that if G is a finite group then the group of endotrivial modules is finitely generated. In this paper we prove that for an arbitrary finite group scheme G, and for any fixed integer n > 0, there are only finitely many…

We study representations of wreath product analogues of categories of finite sets. This includes the category of finite sets and injections (studied by Church, Ellenberg, and Farb) and the opposite of the category of finite sets and…

In this paper we consider the palindromic width of free nilpotent groups. In particular, we prove that the palindromic width of a finitely generated free nilpotent group is finite. We also prove that the palindromic width of a free…

Motivated by a question of Bumagin and Wise, we construct a continuum of finitely generated, residually finite groups whose outer automorphism groups are pairwise non-isomorphic finitely generated, non-recursively-presentable groups. These…
