If totally periodic points are dense in a subshift $X$, its automorphism group is residually finite. We show a weak converse: if periodic points are not dense in a subshift $X$, then the automorphism group of $X \times Y$ is not residually…

Working in the soft-element (classical) viewpoint, we introduce \emph{soft bitopological groups}: soft groups endowed with two soft topologies such that the induced topologies on the set of soft elements make the soft-element group into a…

We explore the relationship between subgroups and the possible shifts of finite type (SFTs) that can be defined on the group. In particular, we investigate two group invariants, weak periodicity and strong periodicity, defined via symbolic…

This paper investigates the finite generation of cluster automorphism groups. By applying the pseudo $\mathbb{N}$-grading introduced in our previous work, we establish a sufficient condition for a cluster automorphism group to be finitely…

Groups of finite type (also called finitely constrained groups), introduced by Grigorchuk, are known to be the closure of regular branch groups. This article explores many of their properties. Firstly, we prove that being finitely…

A group is said to be stable if it is isomorphic to its automorphism group. We investigate how we can extend centerless groups to construct finite stable groups with nontrivial centers. To this end, we classify all finite stable groups…

In this note we prove the following results: $\bullet$ If a finitely presented group $G$ admits a strongly aperiodic SFT, then $G$ has decidable word problem. More generally, for f.g. groups that are not recursively presented, there exists…

A group $G$ is called automatically continuous if any homomorphism from a completely metrizable or locally compact Hausdorff group to $G$ has open kernel. In this paper, we study preservation of automatic continuity under group-theoretic…

For a subshift over a finite alphabet, a measure of the complexity of the system is obtained by counting the number of nonempty cylinder sets of length $n$. When this complexity grows exponentially, the automorphism group has been shown to…

We give a structural description of the normal subgroups of subgroups of finite index in branch groups in terms of rigid stabilizers. This gives further insight into the structure lattices of branch groups introduced by the second author.…

Periodic elements in finite type Artin--Tits groups are elements some positive power of which is central. We give a dynamical characterisation of periodic elements via their action on the corresponding 2-Calabi--Yau category and on its…

Separately continuous bihomomorphisms on a product of convergence or topological groups occur with great frequency. Of course, in general, these need not be jointly continuous. In this paper, we exhibit some results of Banach-Steinhaus type…

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…

We establish three independent results on groups acting on trees. The first implies that a compactly generated locally compact group which acts continuously on a locally finite tree with nilpotent local action and no global fixed point is…

We show that, if $H$ is a random subgroup of a finitely generated free group $F_k$, only inner automorphisms of $F_k$ may leave $H$ invariant. A similar result holds for random subgroups of toral relatively hyperbolic groups, more generally…

We consider groups of the form $G=AB$ with two locally cyclic subgroups $A$ and $B$. The structure of these groups is determined in the cases when $A$ and $B$ are both periodic or when one of them is periodic and the other is not. Together…

A generalized Baumslag-Solitar (GBS) group is a finitely generated group acting on a tree with infinite cyclic edge and vertex stabilizers. We show how to determine effectively the rank (minimal cardinality of a generating set) of a GBS…
