We give a bound for the exponents of powers of Dehn twists to generate a right-angled Artin group. Precisely, if $\mathcal{F}$ is a finite collection of pairwise distinct simple closed curves on a finite type surface and if $N$ denotes the…

Using the canonical JSJ splitting, we describe the outer automorphism group $\Out(G)$ of a one-ended word hyperbolic group $G$. In particular, we discuss to what extent $\Out(G)$ is virtually a direct product of mapping class groups and a…

A graph is called a GRR if its automorphism group acts regularly on its vertex-set. Such a graph is necessarily a Cayley graph. Godsil has shown that there are only two infinite families of finite groups that do not admit GRRs : abelian…

A generalization of the topological fundamental group is developed in order to exhibit a topologically complete braid group containing Artin's braid group on infinitely many strands with respect to the following notion of convergence: A…

In this paper we give an algorithm for solving a main case of the conjugacy problem in the braid groups. We also prove that half-twists satisfy a special root property which allows us to reduce the solution for the conjugacy problem in…

We give a complete characterization of the graph products of cyclic groups admitting a Polish group topology, and show that they are all realizable as the group of automorphisms of a countable structure. In particular, we characterize the…

A group $G$ is twisted conjugacy separable if for every automorphism $\varphi$, distinct $\varphi$-twisted conjugacy classes can be separated in a finite quotient. Likewise, $G$ is completely twisted conjugacy separable if for any group $H$…

Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with defining graph $\Gamma$ and let $H$ be a finitely generated group quasi-isometric to $G(\Gamma)$. We show if $G$ satisfies (1) its outer automorphism group is finite; (2) $\Gamma$ does not have…

For each of the 14 classes of edge-transitive maps described by Graver and Watkins, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a group to be the automorphism group of a map, or of an orientable map without boundary, in that class.…

We give criteria for a graph of groups to have finite stature with respect to its collection of vertex groups, in the sense of Huang-Wise. We apply it to the triangle Artin groups that were previously shown to split as a graph of groups.…

Let $\Gamma$ be a simplicial, finite, connected graph such that $\Gamma$ does not decompose as a nontrivial join. We prove that two notions of strong quasiconvexity and stability are equivalent in the right-angled Artin group $A_\Gamma$…

In this paper, given a split extension of an arbitrary Coxeter group by automorphisms of the Coxeter graph, we determine the involutions in that extension whose centralizer has finite index. Our result has applications to many problems such…

We prove that the Center Conjecture passes to the Artin groups whose defining graphs are cones, if the conjecture holds for the Artin group defined on the set of the cone points. In particular, it holds for every Artin group whose defining…

This paper is a short survey on four basic questions on Artin-Tits groups: the torsion, the center, the word problem, and the cohomology ($K(\pi,1)$ problem). It is also an opportunity to prove three new results concerning these questions:…

An element in Artin's braid group B_n is said to be periodic if some power of it lies in the center of B_n. In this paper we prove that all previously known algorithms for solving the conjugacy search problem in B_n are exponential in the…

Let $G$ be a right-angled Artin group with $|\mathrm{Out}(G)|<+\infty$. We prove that if a countable group $H$ with bounded torsion is measure equivalent to $G$, with an $L^1$-integrable measure equivalence cocycle towards $G$, then $H$ is…

Artin groups of finite type are not as well understood as braid groups. This is due to the additional geometric properties of braid groups coming from their close connection to mapping class groups. For each Artin group of finite type, we…

We provide two alternative ways to determine the number of (bi-)twisted conjugacy classes in a finite group: one by counting certain irreducible characters and one by counting certain twisted conjugacy classes of other endomorphisms. In…

We construct connected $2$-arc-transitive covers of the Petersen graph with non-solvable transformation groups, solving the long-standing problem for the existence of such covers.

In this paper we study topological invariants of a class of random groups. Namely, we study right angled Artin groups associated to random graphs and investigate their Betti numbers, cohomological dimension and topological complexity. The…
