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…

We show that for a large class $\mathcal{C}$ of finitely generated groups of orientation preserving homeomorphisms of the real line, the following holds: Given a group $G$ of rank $k$ in $\mathcal{C}$, there is a sequence of $k$-markings…

Thompson's group $V$ has a rich variety of subgroups, containing all finite groups, all finitely generated free groups and all finitely generated abelian groups, the finitary permutation group of a countable set, as well as many wreath…

Let $(U, R)$ be an approximation space with $U$ being non-empty set and $R$ being an equivalence relation on $U$, and let $\overline{G}$ and $\underline{G}$ be the upper approximation and the lower approximation of subset $G$ of $U$. A…

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…

We show how to construct a family of groups with simple commutator subgroups from aperiodic 1-vertex, finitely aligned higher rank graphs (which are, in fact, a class of cancellative monoids). Inverse semigroups form the intermediary…

We generalize the idea of cofinite groups, due to B. Hartley. First we define cofinite spaces in general. Then, as a special situation, we study cofinite graphs and their uniform completions. The idea of constructing a cofinite graph starts…

Topological full groups originated from the theory of topological dynamical systems and have been having considerable impact on group theory in recent years. This text represents an introduction/survey on topological full groups. After…

We develop a theory of large scale geometry of metrisable topological groups that, in a significant number of cases, allows one to define and identify a unique quasi-isometry type intrinsic to the topological group. Moreover, this…

We show that one can define and effectively compute Stallings graphs for quasi-convex subgroups of automatic groups (\textit{e.g.} hyperbolic groups or right-angled Artin groups). These Stallings graphs are finite labeled graphs, which are…

This article focuses on the study of the group of units of incidence rings, which is a class of infinite matrix groups indexed by ordered sets, on a topological perspective. We first show when these groups can inherit the topological…

Here we study the automorphism groups of $1$-designs constructed from finite nonabelian simple groups by using two methods presented in Moori (Information Security, Coding Theory and Related Combinatorics, 2011). We obtain some general…

We outline a general procedure that builds classifying spaces for generalized Thompson groups $\Gamma$. The construction depends on a small number of choices: (1) an inverse semigroup $S$ of partial transformations that ``locally determine"…

We present a generalization of the Dehornoy-Brin braided Thompson group $BV_2$ that uses recursive braids. Our new groups are denoted by $BV_{n,r}(H)$, for all $n\geq 2,r\geq 1$ and $H \leq \mathcal{B}_n$, where $\mathcal{B}_n$ is the braid…

We present novel constructions concerning the homology of finitely generated groups. Each construction draws on ideas of Gilbert Baumslag. There is a finitely presented acyclic group $U$ such that $U$ has no proper subgroups of finite index…

We say that a finitely generated group $\Gamma$ is self-simulable if every effectively closed action of $\Gamma$ on a closed subset of $\{\texttt{0},\texttt{1}\}^{\mathbb{N}}$ is the topological factor of a $\Gamma$-subshift of finite type.…

Higher-dimensional Thompson's groups nV are finitely presented groups described by Brin which generalize dyadic self-maps of the unit interval to dyadic self-maps of n-dimensional unit cubes. We describe some of the metric properties of…

This paper investigates the relationship between strata of abelian differentials and various mapping class groups afforded by means of the topological monodromy representation. Building off of prior work of the authors, we show that the…

In a previous paper, we defined a higher dimensional analog of Thompson's group V, and proved that it is simple, infinite, finitely generated, and not isomorphic to any of the known Thompson groups. There are other Thompson groups that are…

We consider the topological full group of a substitution subshift induced by a substitution $a\to aca$, $b\to d$, $c\to b$, $d\to c$. This group is interesting since the Grigorchuk group naturally embeds into it. We show that the…
