Clique separator decomposition introduced by Tarjan and Whitesides is one of the most important graph decompositions. A graph is an {\em atom} if it has no clique separator. A {\em hole} is a chordless cycle with at least five vertices, and…

A $P_4$-free graph is called a cograph. In this paper we partially characterize finite groups whose power graph is a cograph. As we will see, this problem is a generalization of the determination of groups in which every element has prime…

In 1993, Muzychuk \cite{muzychuk} showed that the rational Schur rings over a cyclic group $Z_n$ are in one-to-one correspondence with sublattices of the divisor lattice of $n$, or equivalently, with sublattices of the lattice of subgroups…

A group $G$ is said to be $\frac{3}{2}$-generated if every nontrivial element belongs to a generating pair. It is easy to see that if $G$ has this property then every proper quotient of $G$ is cyclic. In this paper we prove that the…

We show that every word hyperbolic, surface-by-(noncyclic) free group Gamma is as rigid as possible: the quasi-isometry group of Gamma equals the abstract commensurator group Comm(Gamma), which in turn contains Gamma as a finite index…

We study the synchronous and asynchronous automatic structures on the fundamental group of a graph of groups in which each edge group is finite. Up to a natural equivalence relation, the set of biautomatic structures on such a graph product…

Circulant graphs are a widely studied family of graphs whose members possess varying amounts of symmetry. Although considerable progress has been made in finding the automorphism groups of circulant graphs under certain restrictions, a…

Henry Wilton classified when a prime three-manifold $M$ has a residually free fundamental group $\pi_1 M$. We prove that the groups $\pi_1 M\times \mathbb Z^n$ are profinitely rigid within finitely generated residually free groups. We also…

We give explicit necessary and sufficient conditions for the abstract commensurability of certain families of 1-ended, hyperbolic groups, namely right-angled Coxeter groups defined by generalized theta-graphs and cycles of generalized…

Free groups have many applications in Algebraic Topology. In this paper I specifically study the finitely generated free groups by using the covering spaces and fundamental groups. By the Van Kampen's theorem, we have a famous fact that the…

Let $D$ be a weakly locally finite division ring and $n$ a positive integer. In this paper, we investigate the problem on the existence of non-cyclic free subgroups in non-central almost subnormal subgroups of the general linear group ${\rm…

Sidorenko's conjecture states that the number of copies of any given bipartite graph in another graph of given density is asymptotically minimized by a random graph. The forcing conjecture further strengthens this, claiming that any…

A subgroup of a group is contranormal if its normal closure coincides with the group. We call such groups without proper contranormal subgroups contranormal-free. In this paper we prove various results concerning contranormal-free groups…

In [BB] Benjamin Baumslag proved that being fully residually free is equivalent to being residually free and commutative transitive (CT). Gaglione and Spellman [GS] and Remeslennikov [Re] showed that this is also equivalent to being…

We associate a graph $\mathcal{C}_G$ to a non locally cyclic group $G$ (called the non-cyclic graph of $G$) as follows: take $G\backslash Cyc(G)$ as vertex set, where $Cyc(G)=\{x\in G | < x,y> \text{is cyclic for all} y\in G\}$ is called…

We study a class of finite groups $G$ which behave similarly to elementary abelian $p$-groups with $p$ prime, that is, there exists a subgroup $N$ such that all elements of $G\setminus N$ are conjugate or inverse-conjugate under $\Aut(G)$.…
