We present a sharp version of the isoperimetric inequality for finitely generated groups due to T. Couhlon and L. Saloff-Coste based on the proof suggested by M. Gromov.
We prove an inequality, valid on any finitely generated group with a fixed finite symmetric generating set, involving the growth of successive balls, and the average length of an element in a ball. It generalizes recent improvements of the…
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for groups. As an application, we obtain lower bound on F{\o}lner functions in various nilpotent-by-cyclic groups. Under a regularity assumption, we obtain a characterization of F{\o}lner functions of…
Given a finitely generated residually finite group $G$, the residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ bounds the size of a finite group $Q$ needed to detect an element of norm at most $r$. More specifically, if…
The functions $F_{G}(n)$ measures the asymptotic behavior of residual finiteness for a finitely generated group $G$. In previous work \cite{Pengitore_1}, the author claimed a characterization for $F_{N}(n)$ when $N$ is a finitely generated…
In [K. Bou-Rabee, B. Seward, J. Reine Angwe. Math. 2016] Bou-Rabee and Seward constructed examples of finitely generated residually finite groups $G$ whose residual finiteness growth function $\mathcal{F}_G$ can be at least as fast as any…
To each finitely generated group $G$, we associate a quasi-isometric invariant called the \emph{Dehn spectrum} of $G$. If $G$ is finitely presented, our invariant is closely related to the Dehn function of $G$, but provides more information…
In this article we investigate the L^1-norm of certain functions on groups called divisibility functions. Using these functions, their connection to residual finiteness, and integration theory on profinite groups, we define the residual…
Residual finiteness growth gives an invariant that indicates how well-approximated a finitely generated group is by its finite quotients. We briefly survey the state of the subject. We then improve on the best known upper and lower bounds…
This article examines lower bounds for the representation growth of finitely generated (particularly profinite and pro-p) groups. It also considers the related question of understanding the maximal multiplicities of character degrees in…
The residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G: \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N}$ of a finitely generated group $G$ is a function that gives the smallest value of the index $[G:N]$ with $N$ a normal subgroup not containing a non-trivial element $g$,…
If $g\in G$ is a non-trivial element in a residually finite group, then there exists by definition a finite group $Q$ and a homomorphism $\varphi: G \to Q$ such that $\varphi(g) \neq e$. The residual finiteness growth $\text{RF}_G$ of a…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite graph, and for each vertex $i$ let $G_i$ be a finitely presented group. Let $G$ be the graph product of the $G_i$. That is, $G$ is the group obtained from the free product of the $G_i$ by factoring out by the…
In these notes we will survey recent results on various finitary approximation properties of infinite groups. We will discuss various restrictions on groups that are approximated for example by finite solvable groups or finite-dimensional…
The usual way to investigate the statistical properties of finitely generated subgroups of free groups, and of finite presentations of groups, is based on the so-called word-based distribution: subgroups are generated (finite presentations…
In this paper we provide a framework for the study of isoperimetric problems in finitely generated group, through a combinatorial study of universal covers of compact simplicial complexes. We show that, when estimating filling functions,…
In this paper we study applications of U-bounds to coercive and isoperimetric problems for probability measures on finite and infinite products of H-type groups.
We study the relative growth of finitely generated subgroups in finitely generated groups, and the corresponding distortion function of the embeddings. We explore which functions are equivalent to the relative growth functions and…
We study a function $\mathcal{L}_{\Gamma}$ which quantifies the LEF (local embeddability into finite groups) property for a finitely generated group $\Gamma$. We compute this "LEF growth" function in some examples, including certain wreath…
Finite decomposition complexity and asymptotic dimension growth are two generalizations of M. Gromov's asymptotic dimension which can be used to prove property A for large classes of finitely generated groups of infinite asymptotic…
