Given a group-word w and a group G, the verbal subgroup w(G) is the one generated by all w-values in G. The word w is called concise if w(G) is finite whenever the set of w-values in G is finite. It is an open question whether every word is…
We show, that groups, defined by wide class of automata, including all polynomial ones, act on the set of infinite words not paradoxical
This note constructs a finitely generated group $W$ whose word-growth is exponential, but for which the infimum of the growth rates over all finite generating sets is 1 -- in other words, of non-uniformly exponential growth. This answers a…
A group is metabelian if its commutator subgroup is abelian. For finitely generated metabelian groups, classical commutative algebra, algebraic geometry and geometric group theory, especially the latter two subjects, can be brought to bear…
A countable group is residually finite if every nontrivial element can act nontrivially on a finite set. When a group fails to be residually finite, we might want to measure how drastically it fails - it could be that only finitely many…
We prove that for arbitrary two finitely generated subgroups A and B having infinite index in a free group F, there is a subgroup H of finite index in B such that the subgroup generated by A and H has infinite index in F. The main corollary…
In an earlier work, the author observed that Boolean inverse semi-groups, with semigroup homomorphisms preserving finite orthogonal joins, form a congruence-permutable variety of algebras, called biases. We give a full description of…
We prove that every finitely generated Kleinian group that contains a finite, non-cyclic subgroup either is finite or virtually free or contains a surface subgroup. Hence, every arithmetic Kleinian group contains a surface subgroup.
A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G$ is generated by $\{ s^g(s) | s\in S\} $ for any choice of $g(s)\in G, s\in S$. In case $G$ is topological one defines similarly the notion of topological invariable generation. A…
In this paper we consider the problem of classification of the nilpotent class 2 finitely generated torsion free groups up to the geometric equivalence. By a very easy technique it is proved that this problem is equivalent to the problem of…
The assertion in the title implies that many interesting groups (e.g., all non-abelian braid groups or ${\bf SL}_{100}(\mathbb Z)$) are not strongly verbally closed, i.e., they embed into some finitely generated groups as verbally closed…
The probabilistic Waring problem for finite simple groups asks whether every word of the form $w_1w_2$, where $w_1$ and $w_2$ are non-trivial words in disjoint sets of variables, induces almost uniform distribution on finite simple groups…
The number of subgroups and the number of cyclic subgroups are natural combinatorial invariants of a finite group. We investigate how restrictions on these quantities, together with the number of distinct prime divisors of $|G|$, enforce…
Let $V$ be a plane smooth cubic curve over a finitely generated field $k.$ The Mordell-Weil theorem for $V$ states that there is a finite subset $P\subset V(k)$ such that the whole $V(k)$ can be obtained from $P$ by drawing secants and…
The notions of stable and Morse subgroups of finitely generated groups generalize the concept of a quasiconvex subgroup of a word-hyperbolic group. For a word-hyperbolic group $G$, Kapovich provided a partial algorithm which, on input a…
We study the problem of realizing families of subgroups as the set of stabilizers of configurations from a subshift of finite type (SFT). This problem generalizes both the existence of strongly and weakly aperiodic SFTs. We show that a…
It is shown that there exist finitely generated infinite simple groups of infinite commutator width and infinite square width on which there exists no stably unbounded conjugation-invariant norm, and in particular stable commutator length…
We prove that every finitely generated residually finite group $G$ can be embedded in a finitely generated branch group $\Gamma$ such that two elements in $G$ are conjugate in $G$ if and only if they are conjugate in $\Gamma$. As an…
We prove two approximations of the open problem of whether the adjoint group of a non-nilpotent nil ring can be finitely generated: We show that the adjoint group of a non-nilpotent Jacobson radical cannot be boundedly generated, and on the…
We prove the Borel Conjecture for a class of groups containing word-hyperbolic groups and groups acting properly, isometrically and cocompactly on a finite dimensional CAT(0)-space.
