We show that for a fixed free group F and an arbitrary finitely generated subgroup H (as given above) we can perform the Stalling's folding process in time O(N log^*(N)), where N is the sum of the word lengths of the given generators of H.

Let G be a group and H be a subgroup of G. We say that H is left relatively convex in G if the left G-set G/H has at least one G-invariant order; when G is left orderable, this holds if and only if H is convex in G under some left ordering…

We investigate the cocompact action of Higman's group on a CAT(0) square complex associated to its standard presentation. We show that this action is in a sense intrinsic, which allows for the use of geometric techniques to study the…

Let H be a semisimple (so, finite dimensional) Hopf algebra over an algebraically closed field k of characteristic zero and let A be a commutative domain over k. We show that if A arises as an H-module algebra via an inner faithful…

Factors $\frac{X}{Y}$ in a free group $F$ with $Y$ normal in $X$ are considered. Precise results on the free structure of ${Y}$ relative to the free structure of ${X}$ when $\frac{X}{Y}$ is abelian are obtained. Some extensions and…

Every countable directed graph generates a Fock space Hilbert space and a family of partial isometries. These operators also arise from the left regular representations of free semigroupoids derived from directed graphs. We develop a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a f.g. discrete group and let $\tilde M$ be a Galois $\Gamma$-covering of a smooth closed manifold $M$. Let $S_*^\Gamma(\tilde{M})$ be the analytic structure group, appearing in the Higson-Roe analytic surgery sequence $\to…

Given a finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a free group $F$, we present an algorithm which computes $g_1,\ldots,g_m\in F$, such that the set of elements $g\in F$, for which there exists a non-trivial $H$-equation having $g$ as a solution,…

For finitely generated subgroups $H$ of a free group $F_m$ of finite rank $m$, we study the language $L_H$ of reduced words that represent $H$ which is a regular language. Using the (extended) core of Schreier graph of $H$, we construct the…

In this paper, we show that every measure-preserving ergodic equivalence relation of cost less than m comes from a "rich" faithful invariant random subgroup of the free group on m generators, strengthening a result of Bowen which had been…

Let $S$ be a subset of a amenable group $G$ such that $e\in S$ and $S^{-1}=S$. The main result of the paper states that if the Cayley graph of $G$ with respect to $S$ has a certain combinatorial property, then every positive definite…

We investigate accessible subgroups of a profinite group $G$, i.e. subgroups $H$ appearing as vertex groups in a graph of profinite groups decomposition of $G$ with finite edge groups. We prove that any accessible subgroup $H \leq G$ arises…

We construct an embedding of a free Burnside group $B(m,n)$ of odd $n > 2^{48}$ and rank $m >1$ in a finitely presented group with some special properties. The main application of this embedding is an easy construction of finitely presented…

We examine free orientation-reversing group actions on orientable handlebodies, and free actions on nonorientable handlebodies. A classification theorem is obtained, giving the equivalence classes and weak equivalence classes of free…

Let $\mathbb{H}$ be the general, reduced Heisenberg group. Our main result establishes the inverse-closedness of a class of integral operators acting on $L^{p}(\mathbb{H})$, given by the off-diagonal decay of the kernel. As a consequence of…

Given an action of a group $G$ by automorphisms on an infinite relational structure $\mathcal{M}$, we say that the action is structurally sharply $k$-transitive if, for any two $k$-tuples $\bar{a}, \bar{b} \in M^k$ of distinct elements such…

We show that every group $H$ of at most exponential growth with respect to some left invariant metric admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into a finitely generated group $G$ such that $G$ is amenable (respectively, solvable, satisfies a…

Compact matrix quantum groups act naturally on Cuntz algebras. The first author isolated certain conditions under which the fixed point algebras under this action are Kirchberg algebras. Hence they are completely determined by their…

It is shown that there exist infinitely many non-integers $r>2$ such that the Dehn function of some finitely presented group is $\simeq n^r$. For each positive rational number $s$ we construct pairs of finitely presented groups $H\subset G$…

Let $\Lambda$ be an ordered abelian group, $\mathrm{Aut}^+(\Lambda)$ the group of order-preserving automorphisms of $\Lambda$, $G$ a group and $\alpha:G\to\mathrm{Aut}^+(\Lambda)$ a homomorphism. An $\alpha$-affine action of $G$ on a…
