Autostackability for finitely generated groups is defined via a topological property of the associated Cayley graph which can be encoded in a finite state automaton. Autostackable groups have solvable word problem and an effective inductive…

In this paper we prove several results regarding decidability of the membership problem for certain submonoids in amalgamated free products and HNN extensions of groups. These general results are then applied to solve the prefix membership…

In 2018, it was shown that all finitely generated virtually Abelian groups have multiple context-free word problems, and it is still an open problem as to where to precisely place the word problems of hyperbolic groups in the formal…

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a class of finite groups closed for subgroups, quotients groups and extensions. Let $\Gamma$ be a finite simplicial graph and $G = G_{\Gamma}$ be the corresponding pro-$\mathcal C$ RAAG. We show that if $N$ is a…

It is shown that the big free group (the set of countably-long words over a countable alphabet) is almost free, in the sense that any function from the alphabet to a compact topological group factors through a homomorphism. This statement…

A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be an $\mathscr{H}C$-subgroup of $G$ if there exists a normal subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G=HT$ and $H^g \cap N_T(H)\leq H$ for all $g\in G$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of…

We investigate language generation in the limit - a model by Kleinberg and Mullainathan [NeurIPS 2024] and extended by Li, Raman, and Tewari [COLT 2025]. While Kleinberg and Mullainathan proved generation is possible for all countable…

It is well known that if two finite groups have the same symmetric tensor categories of representations over C, then they are isomorphic. We study the following question: when do two finite groups G1,G2 have the same tensor categories of…

Let $w = w(x_1,..., x_n)$ be a word, i.e. an element of the free group $F =<x_1,...,x_n>$ on $n$ generators $x_1,..., x_n$. The verbal subgroup $w(G)$ of a group $G$ is the subgroup generated by the set $\{w (g_1,...,g_n)^{\pm 1} | g_i \in…

We characterize the group property of being with infinite conjugacy classes (or icc, in which all conjugacy classes beside 1 are infinite) for extensions of some specific groups ; namely extensions of abelian, centerless, icc, or word…

Based on the notions of conciseness and semiconciseness, we show that these properties are not equivalent by proving that a word originally presented by Ol'shanskii is semiconcise but not concise. We further establish that every…

We consider how the languages of $G$-automata compare with other formal language classes. We prove that if the word problem of a group $G$ is accepted by a machine in the class $\mathcal M$ then the language of any $G$-automaton is in the…

We present a new framework for dealing with $C^{\infty}$-words, based on their left and right frontiers. This allows us to give a compact representation of them, and to describe the set of $C^{\infty}$-words through an infinite directed…

We study a family of groups consisting of the simplest extensions of lamplighter groups. We use these groups to answer multiple open questions in combinatorial group theory, providing groups that exhibit various combinations of properties:…

I investigate modal group theory for arbitrary homomorphisms. Possibility is interpreted by the existence of a group homomorphism out of the given group, so the semantics is governed by the possibility of collapse: elements may be…

These are lecture notes on the algebraic approach to regular languages. The classical algebraic approach is for finite words; it uses semigroups instead of automata. However, the algebraic approach can be extended to structures beyond…

Examples are given of non-elementary properties that are preserved under C-filtrations for various classes C of Abelian groups. The Baer-Specker group is never the union of a chain of proper subgroups with cotorsionfree quotients.…

We prove that the class of residually C groups is closed under taking graph products, provided that C is closed under taking subgroups, finite direct products and that free-by-C groups are residually C. As a consequence, we show that local…

Let $\mathbb{E}$ be the HNN-extension of a group $B$ with subgroups $H$ and $K$ associated according to an isomorphism $\varphi\colon H \to K$. Suppose that $H$ and $K$ are normal in $B$ and $(H \cap K)\varphi = H \cap K$. Under these…

In this article we generalize the theory of subgroup graphs of subgroups of free groups to finite index subgroups $H$ of finitely generated groups $G$. We study and prove various properties of $H$ in relation to its subgroup graph…
