Non-transitive subgroups of the orthogonal group play an important role in the non-Euclidean geometry. If $G$ is a closed subgroup in the orthogonal group such that the orbit of a single Euclidean unit vector does not cover the (Euclidean)…

If G is a group with a presentation of the form < x,y|x^3=y^3=W(x,y)^2=1 >, then either G is virtually soluble or G contains a free subgroup of rank 2. This provides additional evidence in favour of a conjecture of Rosenberger.

Solving tangle equations is deeply connected with studying enzyme action on DNA. The main goal of this paper is to solve the system of tangle equations $N(O+X_1)=b_1$ and $N(O+X_2)=b_2 \# b_3$, where $X_1$ and $X_2$ are rational tangles,…

We consider exponent equations in finitely generated groups. These are equations, where the variables appear as exponents of group elements and take values from the natural numbers. Solvability of such (systems of) equations has been…

A group $G$ is called mixed identity-free if for every $n \in \mathbb{N}$ and every $w \in G \ast F_n$ there exists a homomorphism $\varphi: G \ast F_n \rightarrow G$ such that $\varphi$ is the identity on $G$ and $\varphi(w)$ is…

Let $G$ be a finite nonabelian group. We show how an endomorphism of $G$ with abelian image gives rise to a family of binary operations $\{\circ_n: n\in \mathbb Z^{\ge 0}\}$ on $G$ such that $(G,\circ_m,\circ_n)$ is a skew left brace for…

If G is a group with a presentation of the form < x,y|x^3=y^5=W(x,y)^2=1 >, then either G is virtually soluble or G contains a free subgroup of rank 2. This provides additional evidence in favour of a conjecture of Rosenberger.

Suppose that G is a finitely generated group and W is the formal language of words defining the identity in G. We prove that if G is a nilpotent group, the fundamental group of a finite volume hyperbolic three-manifold, or a right-angled…

Let $G$ be a finite abelian group with $\exp(G)$ the exponent of $G$. Then $\mathsf W(G)$ denotes the set of cross numbers of minimal zero-sum sequences over $G$ and $\mathsf w(G)$ denotes the set of all cross numbers of non-trivial…

If $G$ is a group, we say a subset $S$ of $G$ is product-free if the equation $xy=z$ has no solutions with $x,y,z \in S$. For $D \in \mathbb{N}$, a group $G$ is said to be $D$-quasirandom if the minimal dimension of a nontrivial complex…

Recently knapsack problems have been generalized from the integers to arbitrary finitely generated groups. The knapsack problem for a finitely generated group $G$ is the following decision problem: given a tuple $(g, g_1, \ldots, g_k)$ of…

Random walks on a group $G$ model many natural phenomena. A random walk is defined by a probability measure $p$ on $G$. We are interested in asymptotic properties of the random walks and in particular in the linear drift and the asymptotic…

This paper introduces in detail a non-variational quantum algorithm designed to solve a wide range of combinatorial optimisation problems, including constrained problems and problems with non-binary variables. The algorithm returns optimal…

For a finite group $G$ and an element $x\in G$, the subset $$ nil_G(x)=\{y\in G \mid <x,y>~~ is ~~ nilpotent\}$$ is called nilpotentizer of $x$ in $G$. In this paper, we give two solvabilty criteria for a finite group by the structure and…

We study conjugacy classes of solutions to systems of equations and inequations over torsion-free hyperbolic groups, and describe an algorithm to recognize whether or not there are finitely many conjugacy classes of solutions to such a…

We consider random walks in strong-mixing random Gibbsian environments in $\mathbb{Z}^d, d\ge 2$. Based on regeneration arguments, we will first provide an alternative proof of Rassoul-Agha's conditional law of large numbers (CLLN) for…

We prove new mixing rate estimates for the random walks on homogeneous spaces determined by a probability distribution on a finite group $G$. We introduce the switched random walk determined by a finite set of probability distributions on…

In this article, we study word equations in free semigroups and the conjecture that the existence of infinitely many solutions entails the existence of solutions with arbitrarily large exponent of periodicity. We examine this question in…

In this note we prove the claim given in the title. A group G is noncommutatively slender if each map from the fundamental group of the Hawaiian Earring to G factors through projection to a canonical free subgroup. Graham Higman, in his…

We consider arbitrary graphs $G$ with $n$ vertices and minimum degree at least $\delta n$ where $\delta>0$ is constant. If the conductance of $G$ is sufficiently large then we obtain an asymptotic expression for the cover time $C_G$ of $G$…
