We study subsets $E$ of finitely generated groups where the set of all words over a given finite generating set that lie in $E$ forms a context-free language. We call these sets recognisably context-free. They are invariant of the choice of…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated group, $A$ a finite set of generators and $K$ a subgroup of $G$. We call the pair $(G,K)$ context-free if the set of all words over $A$ that reduce in $G$ to an element of $K$ is a context-free language. When…

Starting from context-free inverse graphs, we introduce a new class of groups and study their structural properties. We establish closure properties, show that their co-word problems are context-free, analyze torsion elements, and realize…

It is shown that the subalgebra of invariants of a free associative algebra of finite rank under a linear action of a semisimple Hopf algebra has a rational Hilbert series with respect to the usual degree function, whenever the ground field…

Shipley and the author have given an algebraic model for free rational G-spectra for a compact Lie group G. In the present note we describe, at the level of homotopy categories, the algebraic models for induction, restriction and…

Suppose $M$ is a countable ab-initio (uncollapsed) generic structure which is obtained from a pre-dimension function with rational coefficients. We show that if $H$ is a subgroup of $\mbox{Aut}\left(M\right)$ with…

We study algebraic closure and its relation with definable closure in free groups and more generally in torsion-free hyperbolic groups. Given a torsion-free hyperbolic group G and a nonabelian subgroup A of G, we describe G as a…

A finite hypergraph $H$ consists of a finite set of vertices $V(H)$ and a collection of subsets $E(H) \subseteq 2^{V(H)}$ which we consider as partition of unity relations between projection operators. These partition of unity relations…

Given a square matrix with elements in the group-ring of a group, one can consider the sequence formed by the trace (in the sense of the group-ring) of its powers. We prove that the corresponding generating series is an algebraic…

We extend to the context of algebraic groups a classic result on extensions of abstract groups relating the set of isomorphism classes of extensions of $G$ by $H$ with that of extensions of $G$ by the center $Z$ of $H$. The proof should be…

In this note we study the natural question of when the generalised F{\o}lner sets exhibiting property A can be chosen to be subsets of the space itself. We show that for many property A spaces $X$, this is indeed possible. Specifically this…

We show that under mild conditions, a Gaussian analytic function $\boldsymbol F$ that a.s. does not belong to a given weighted Bergman space or Bargmann-Fock space has the property that a.s. no non-zero function in that space vanishes where…

A subgroup of a group $G$ is called algebraic if it can be expressed as a finite union of solution sets to systems of equations. We prove that a non-elementary subgroup $H$ of an acylindrically hyperbolic group $G$ is algebraic if and only…

As an instance of a linear action of a Hopf algebra on a free associative algebra, we consider finite group gradings of a free algebra induced by gradings on the space spanned by the free generators. The homogeneous component corresponding…
