The free semigroup $\mathcal{F}$ over a finite alphabet $\mathcal{A}$ is the set of all finite words with letters from $\mathcal{A}$ equipped with the operation of concatenation. A subset $S$ of $\mathcal{F}$ is $k$-product-free if no…

Motivated by the Mathieu conjecture [Ma], the image conjecture [Z3] and the well-known Jacobian conjecture [K] (see also [BCW] and [E]), the notion of Mathieu subspaces as a natural generalization of the notion of ideals has been introduced…

For a torsion free finitely generated nilpotent group G we naturally associate four finite dimensional nilpotent Lie algebras over a field of characteristic zero. We show that if G is a relatively free group of some variery of nilpotent…

We obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for an algebraic set in a group to have a fully characteristic radical. As a result, we see that if the radical of a system of equation $S$ over a group $G$ is fully characteristic, then there…

Let $G$ be a group and let $V$ be an algebraic group over an algebraically closed field. We introduce algebraic group subshifts $\Sigma \subset V^G$ which generalize both the class of algebraic sofic subshifts of $V^G$ and the class of…

It is proved that, in certain subgroups of direct products of countable groups, the property of being an unconditionally closed set coincides with that of being an algebraic set. In particular, these properties coincide in all Abelian…

For a locally compact group $G$, the first-named author considered the closed subspace $a_0(G)$ which is generated by the pure positive definite functions. In many cases $a_0(G)$ is itself an algebra. We illustrate using Heisenburg groups…

This work concerns finite free complexes over commutative noetherian rings, in particular over group algebras of elementary abelian groups. The main contribution is the construction of complexes such that the total rank of their underlying…

Muller and Schupp introduced the concept of context-free graphs (originating from Cayley graphs of context-free groups). These graphs are always tree-like (i.e. quasi-isometric to a tree) and in this paper we investigate the subclass of…

In this note, we introduce a new concept of a {\it generalized algebraic rational identity} to investigate the structure of division rings. The main theorem asserts that if a non-central subnormal subgroup $N$ of the multiplicative group…

We prove that for arbitrary two finitely generated subgroups A and B having infinite index in a free group F, there is a subgroup H of finite index in B such that the subgroup generated by A and H has infinite index in F. The main corollary…

It has recently been recognized by the author that the quantum contextuality paradigm may be formulated in terms of the properties of some subgroups of the two-letter free group $G$ and their corresponding point-line incidence geometry…

It is shown that for a linear algebraic group G over a field of characteristic zero, there is a natural number \kappa(G) such that if a system of Zariski closed cosets in G has empty intersection, then there is a subsystem consisting of at…

Let G be a finitely generated free, free abelian of arbitrary exponent, free nilpotent, or free solvable group, or a free group in the variety A_mA_n, and let A = {a_1,..., a_r} be a basis for G. We prove that, in most cases, if S is a…

In this series of papers, we investigate properties of a finite group which are determined by its low degree irreducible representations over a number field $F$, i.e. its representations on matrix rings $\operatorname{M}_n(D)$ with $n \leq…

Let $R$ denote a 2-fir. The notions of F-independence and algebraic subsets of R are defined. The decomposition of an algebraic subset into similarity classes gives a simple way of translating the F-independence in terms of dimension of…

In this paper, we consider a natural generalization of the concept of order of an element in a group: an element $g \in G$ is said to have order $k$ in a subgroup $H$ of $G$ (\resp \wrt a coset $Hu$) if $k$ is the first strictly positive…

We show that (with one possible exception) there exist strongly dense free subgroups in any semisimple algebraic group over a large enough field. These are nonabelian free subgroups all of whose subgroups are either cyclic or Zariski dense.…

We give strengthened versions of the Herwig-Lascar and Hodkinson-Otto extension theorems for partial automorphisms of finite structures. Such strengthenings yield several combinatorial and group-theoretic consequences for homogeneous…

Let $F \ast G$ be a free product of a free group $F$ and a LERF group $G$. In this note, we provide sufficient conditions for a subgroup $H$ of $F \ast G$ to be $\mathcal{A} \cup \mathcal{S}$-separable, that is, for any finite set…
