The Reidemeister number of an endomorphism of a group is the number of twisted conjugacy classes determined by that endomorphism. The collection of all Reidemeister numbers of all automorphisms of a group $G$ is called the Reidemeister…

This paper initiates the study of effective twisted conjugacy separability for finitely generated groups, which measures the complexity of separating distinct twisted conjugacy classes via finite quotients. The focus is on nilpotent groups,…

Given an endomorphism $\varphi: G \to G$ on a group $G$, one can define the Reidemeister number $R(\varphi) \in \mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$ as the number of twisted conjugacy classes. The corresponding Reidemeister zeta function…

We construct countable groups $G$ with the following new degree of W*-superrigidity: if $L(G)$ is virtually isomorphic, in the sense of admitting a bifinite bimodule, with any other group von Neumann algebra $L(\Lambda)$, then the groups…

For a wide class of groups including polycyclic and finitely generated polynomial growth groups it is proved that the Reidemeister number of an automorphism f is equal to the number of finite-dimensional fixed points of the induced map f^…

We investigate fixed-point properties of automorphisms of groups similar to R. Thompson's group $F$. Revisiting work of Gon\c{c}alves-Kochloukova, we deduce a cohomological criterion to detect infinite fixed-point sets in the…

We prove twisted homological stability with polynomial coefficients for automorphism groups of free nilpotent groups of any given class. These groups interpolate between two extremes for which homological stability was known before, the…

We prove that the restricted wreath product ${\mathbb{Z}_n \mathbin{\mathrm{wr}} \mathbb{Z}^k}$ has the $R_\infty$-property, i. e. every its automorphism $\varphi$ has infinite Reidemeister number $R(\varphi)$, in exactly two cases: (1) for…

Let $G$ be a compact, simply connected Lie group. If $\mathcal{C}_1,\mathcal{C}_2$ are two $G$-conjugacy classes, then the set of elements in $G$ that can be written as products $g=g_1g_2$ of elements $g_i\in \mathcal{C}_i$ is invariant…

We show that untwisted respectively twisted conjugacy classes of a compact and simply connected Lie group which satisfy a certain integrality condition correspond naturally to irreducible highest weight representations of the corresponding…

Let $S(\infty)$ denote the infinite symmetric group formed by the finitary permutations of the set of natural numbers; this is a countable group. We introduce its virtual group algebra, a completion of the conventional group algebra…

We study the notion of twisted conjugacy separability (essentially introduced in our previous paper for a proof of twisted version of Burnside-Frobenius theorem) and some related properties. We give examples of groups with and without this…

We construct an algorithm that, given a pair of homomorphisms between polycyclic-by-finite groups, determines whether their Reidemeister number is finite, and if so returns a set of representatives of the twisted conjugacy classes.…

There exist right angled Artin groups $A$ such that the isomorphism problem for finitely presented subgroups of $A$ is unsolvable, and for certain finitely presented subgroups the conjugacy and membership problems are unsolvable. It follows…
