Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Kleinian group and $H<\Gamma$ a finitely generated, proper subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma$ has finite co-volume, then the profinite completions of $H$ and $\Gamma$ are not isomorphic. If $H$ has finite…
A Coxeter group acts properly and cocompactly by isometries on the Davis complex for the group; we call the quotient of the Davis complex under this action the Davis orbicomplex for the group. We prove the set of finite covers of the Davis…
This paper establishes strong profinite rigidity results for K\"ahler groups, showing that certain groups are determined within the class of residually finite K\"ahler groups by their profinite completion. Examples include products of…
Certain results on representations of quivers have analogs in the structure theory of general Coxeter groups. A fixed Coxeter element turns the Coxeter graph into an acyclic quiver, allowing for the definition of a preprojective root. A…
We prove that the weak order on an infinite Coxeter group contains infinite antichains if and only if the group is not affine.
The article deals with profinite groups in which centralizers are virtually procyclic. Suppose that G is a profinite group such that the centralizer of every nontrivial element is virtually torsion-free while the centralizer of every…
The main result of the paper is the following theorem. Let $q$ be a prime and $A$ an elementary abelian group of order $q^3$. Suppose that $A$ acts coprimely on a profinite group $G$ and assume that $C_G(a)$ is locally nilpotent for each…
Using algebraic geometry methods, the third author proved that the group ring of a surjunctive group with coefficients in a field is always stably finite. In other words, every group satisfying Gottschalk's conjecture also satisfies…
Suppose $R$ is a profinite ring. We construct a large class of profinite groups $\widehat{{\scriptstyle\bf L}'{\scriptstyle\bf H}_R}\mathfrak{F}$, including all soluble profinite groups and profinite groups of finite cohomological dimension…
Let $G$ be the fundamental group of a graph of finitely generated virtually free groups with virtually cyclic edge groups. We shaw that $G$ is cohomologically good if $G$ is residually finite. If $G$ is LERF, we prove that G splits…
In this paper we extend the construction of special representations to Gromov hyperbolic groups which admits complementary series. We prove that these representations have a natural non-trivial reduced cohomology class $[c]$. An analogue of…
We prove that finite index subgroups of right angled Artin groups are conjugacy separable. We then apply this result to establish various properties of other classes of groups. In particular, we show that any word hyperbolic Coxeter group…
We show that any nonabelian free group $F$ of finite rank is homogeneous; that is for any tuples $\bar a$, $\bar b \in F^n$, having the same complete $n$-type, there exists an automorphism of $F$ which sends $\bar a$ to $\bar b$. We further…
We formulate and prove a profinite rigidity theorem for the twisted Alexander polynomials up to several types of finite ambiguity. We also establish torsion growth formulas of the twisted homology groups in a $\mathbb{Z}$-cover of a…
In a recent paper by K.-H. Lee and K. Lee, rigid reflections are defined for any Coxeter group via non-self-intersecting curves on a Riemann surface with labeled curves. When the Coxeter group arises from an acyclic quiver, the rigid…
In the setting of step 2 sub-Finsler Carnot groups with strictly convex norms, we prove that all infinite geodesics are lines. It follows that for any other homogeneous distance, all geodesics are lines exactly when the induced norm on the…
We prove that every {finitely generated residually finite}-by-sofic group satisfies Kaplansky's direct and stable finiteness conjectures with respect to all noetherian rings. We use this result to provide countably many new examples of…
Let $S$ be either a free group or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface. We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated residually-$p$ group with the same pro-$p$ completion as $S$, then two-generated subgroups of $G$ are free.…
We introduce and study a combinatorially defined notion of root basis of a (real) root system of a possibly infinite Coxeter group. Known results on conjugacy up to sign of root bases of certain irreducible finite rank real root systems are…
We show that any non abelian free group $\F$ is strongly $\aleph_0$-homogeneous, i.e. that finite tuples of elements which satisfy the same first-order properties are in the same orbit under $\Aut(\F)$. We give a characterization of…
