We show that group C*-algebras of finitely generated, nilpotent groups have finite nuclear dimension. It then follows, from a string of deep results, that the C*-algebra $A$ generated by an irreducible representation of such a group has…
The aim of this work is to find some exact sequences on the $c$- nilpotent multiplier of a group $G$. We also give an upper bound for the $c$- nilpotent multiplier of finite $p$-groups and give the explicit structure of groups whose take…
Gromov claimed, with a sketch of proof, that simply connected nilpotent Lie groups have polynomially bounded filling invariants. The literature establishes this, often with a stronger conclusion where the exponent of polynomiality is…
This paper studies effective separability for subgroups of finitely generated nilpotent groups and more broadly effective subgroup separability of finitely generated nilpotent groups. We provide upper and lower bounds that are polynomial…
We study the coset covering function $\mathfrak{C}(r)$ of a finitely generated group: the number of cosets of infinite index subgroups needed to cover the ball of radius $r$. We show that $\mathfrak{C}(r)$ is of order at least $\sqrt{r}$…
The higher divergence of a metric space describes its isoperimetric behaviour at infinity. It is closely related to the higher-dimensional Dehn functions, but has more requirements to the fillings. We prove that these additional…
We address a question from \cite{BKV25} regarding the finiteness of the homological $R$-isoperimetric function. Let $R$ be a subfield of the complex numbers $\mathbb{C}$ with the absolute value norm. We prove that for any group $G$ that…
Given two positive integers n and c, we determine an upper bound, as a function of n and c, for the maximum order of a finite nilpotent transitive group of degree n and nilpotency class at most c.
Let $\Gamma$ be a finite graph, and for each vertex $i$ let $G_i$ be a finitely presented group. Let $G$ be the graph product of the $G_i$. That is, $G$ is the group obtained from the free product of the $G_i$ by factoring out by the…
The notion of bounded FC-nilpotent group is introduced and it is shown that any such group is nilpotent-by-finite, generalizing a result of Neumann on bounded FC-groups.
We show that inductive limits of virtually nilpotent groups have strongly quasidiagonal C*-algebras, extending results of the first author on solvable virtually nilpotent groups. We use this result to show that the decomposition rank of the…
A combing is a set of normal forms for a finitely generated group. This article investigates the language-theoretic and geometric properties of combings for nilpotent and polycyclic groups. It is shown that a finitely generated class 2…
In this paper we present some inequalities for the order, the exponent and the number of generators of the $c$-nilpotent multiplier (the Baer invariant with respect to the variety of nilpotent groups of class at most $c \geq 1$) of a finite…
For any group G, let C(G) denote the intersection of the normal- izers of centralizers of all elements of G. Set C0 = 1. Define Ci+1(G)=Ci(G) = C(G=Ci(G)) for i ? 0. By C1(G) denote the terminal term of the ascending series. In this paper,…
In this paper we consider the palindromic width of free nilpotent groups. In particular, we prove that the palindromic width of a finitely generated free nilpotent group is finite. We also prove that the palindromic width of a free…
We prove that the word problem of a finitely generated group $G$ is in NP (solvable in polynomial time by a non-deterministic Turing machine) if and only if this group is a subgroup of a finitely presented group $H$ with polynomial…
We give some connections between various functions defined on finitely presented groups (isoperimetric, isodiametric, Todd-Coxeter radius, filling length functions, etc.), and we study the relation between those functions and the…
We prove that a finitely generated Lie algebra $L$ such that (i) every commutator in generators is ad-nilpotent, and (ii) $ L$ satisfies a polynomial identity, is nilpotent. As a corollary we get that a finitely generated residually-$p$…
We prove an isoperimetric inequality for groups. As an application, we obtain lower bound on F{\o}lner functions in various nilpotent-by-cyclic groups. Under a regularity assumption, we obtain a characterization of F{\o}lner functions of…
In this paper we present some inequalities for the order, the exponent, and the number of generators of the c-nilpotent multiplier (the Baer invariant with respect to the variety of nilpotent groups of class at most $c \geq 1$) of a…
