Let \Gamma(n,p) denote the binomial model of a random triangular group. We show that there exist constants c, C > 0 such that if p <= c/n^2, then a.a.s. \Gamma(n,p) is free and if p >= C log n/n^2 then a.a.s. \Gamma(n,p) has Kazhdan's…

The random triangular group \Gamma(n,t) is a group given by a presentation P=<S|R>, where S is a set of n generators and R is a random set of t cyclically reduced words of length three. The asymptotic behavior of \Gamma(n,t) is in some…

The random triangular group $\Gamma(n,p)$ is the group given by a random group presentation with $n$ generators in which every relator of length three is present independently with probability $p$. We show that in the evolution of…

We prove that random groups in the Gromov density model at any density $d$ have with overwhelming probability no non-trivial left-orderable quotients. In particular, random groups at densities $d<\frac{1}{2}$ are not left-orderable.

I. M. Chiswell has asked whether every group that admits a free isometric action (without inversions) on a $\Lambda$-tree is orderable. We give an example of a multiple HNN extension $\Gamma$ which acts freely on a $\mathbb{Z}^2$-tree but…

For any prime number p and any positive real number {\alpha}, we construct a finitely generated group {\Gamma} with p-gradient equal to {\alpha}. This construction is used to show that there exist uncountably many pairwise non-commensurable…

This note describes the first example of a group that is amenable, but cannot be obtained by subgroups, quotients, extensions and direct limits from the class of groups locally of subexponential growth. It has a balanced presentation…

Let $\Gamma$ be a centerless irreducible higher rank arithmetic lattice in characteristic zero. We prove that if $\Gamma$ is either non-uniform or is uniform of orthogonal type and dimension at least 9, then $\Gamma$ is bi-interpretable…

For a finite (not necessarily Abelian) group $(\Gamma,\cdot)$, let $n(\Gamma) \in \mathbb{N}$ denote the smallest positive integer $n$ such that for every labelling of the arcs of the complete digraph of order $n$ using elements from…

Let D denote the (n-1)-dimensional simplex. Let Y be a random 2-dimensional subcomplex of D obtained by starting with the full 1-skeleton of D and then adding each 2-simplex independently with probability p. For a fixed c>0 it is shown that…

If $\Gamma$ is a string C-group which is isomorphic to a transitive subgroup of the symmetric group Sym(n) (other than Sym(n) and the alternating group Alt(n)), then the rank of $\Gamma$ is at most $n/2+1$, with finitely many exceptions…

In this paper we study the action of a countable group $\Gamma$ on the space of orders on the group. In particular, we are concerned with the invariant probability measures on this space, known as invariant random orders. We show that for…

Motivated by recent activity in low-dimensional topology, we provide a new criterion for left-orderability of a group under the assumption that the group is circularly-orderable: A group $G$ is left-orderable if and only if $G \times…

Given a graph $\Gamma$, its auxiliary \emph{square-graph} $\square(\Gamma)$ is the graph whose vertices are the non-edges of $\Gamma$ and whose edges are the pairs of non-edges which induce a square (i.e., a $4$-cycle) in $\Gamma$. We…

In this paper we explain certain systematic differences between algebraic and topological triangulated categories. A triangulated category is algebraic if it admits a differential graded model, and topological if it admits a model in the…

For $\Gamma$ a group of order $mp$ for $p$ prime where $gcd(p,m)=1$, we consider those regular subgroups $N\leq Perm(\Gamma)$ normalized by $\lambda(\Gamma)$, the left regular representation of $\Gamma$. These subgroups are in one-to-one…

Let $Y(n, p)$ denote the probability space of random 2-dimensional simplicial complexes in the Linial--Meshulam model, and let $Y \sim Y(n, p)$ denote a random complex chosen according to this distribution. In a paper of Cohen, Costa,…

We describe the structure of virtually solvable normal subgroups in the automorphism group of a right-angled Artin group ${\rm Aut}(A_\Gamma)$. In particular, we prove that a finite normal subgroup in ${\rm Aut}(A_\Gamma)$ has at most order…

This paper initiates the study of circular orderability of $3$-manifold groups, motivated by the L-space conjecture. We show that a compact, connected, $\mathbb{P}^2$-irreducible $3$-manifold has a circularly orderable fundamental group if…

Let $\Gamma$ denote a distance-regular graph with classical parameters $(D, b, \alpha, \beta)$ and $D\geq 3$. Assume the intersection numbers $a_1=0$ and $a_2\not=0$. We show $\Gamma$ is 3-bounded in the sense of the article [D-bounded…
