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…
Let G be any locally compact, unimodular, metrizable group. The main result of this paper, roughly stated, is that if F<G is any finitely generated free group and \Gamma < G any lattice, then up to a small perturbation and passing to a…
We prove that in every finitely generated profinite group, every subgroup of finite index is open; this implies that the topology on such groups is determined by the algebraic structure. This is deduced from the main result about finite…
We complete the classification of pronormal subgroups in the projective special linear groups PSL(2,q), the Suzuki groups of Lie type Sz(q), and the first Janko group J1, for the same ranges of q as in previous studies. Building on those…
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…
In this paper we give a description of the possible limit sets of finitely generated subgroups of irreducible lattices in $PSL(2,R)^r$.
A topological group $G$ is topologically normally generated if there exists $g \in G$ such that the normal closure of $g$ is dense in $G$. Let $S$ be a tame, infinite type surface whose mapping class group $\mathrm{Map}(S)$ is generated by…
Let $\mathfrak{F}$ be a class of finite groups and $G$ a finite group. Let ${\cal L}_{\mathfrak{F}}(G)$ be the set of all subgroups $A$ of $G$ with $A^{G}/A_{G}\in \mathfrak{F}$. A chief factor $H/K$ of $G$ is $\mathfrak{F}$-central in $G$…
If $G$ is a semisimple Lie group of real rank at least 2 and $\Gamma$ is an irreducible lattice in $G$, then every homomorphism from $\Gamma$ to the outer automorphism group of a finitely generated free group has finite image.
A subgroup H of a group G is called inert if for each $g\in G$ the index of $H\cap H^g$ in $H$ is finite. We give a classification of soluble-by-finite groups $G$ in which subnormal subgroups are inert in the cases where $G$ has no…
Let $\Gamma$ be a non-elementary Kleinian group and $H<\Gamma$ a finitely generated, proper subgroup. We prove that if $\Gamma$ has finite co-volume, then the profinite completions of $H$ and $\Gamma$ are not isomorphic. If $H$ has finite…
Assume $G$ is a solvable group whose elementary abelian sections are all finite. Suppose, further, that $p$ is a prime such that $G$ fails to contain any subgroups isomorphic to $C_{p^\infty}$. We show that if $G$ is nilpotent, then the…
A group $G$ is said to have dense normalizers if each non-empty open interval in its subgroup lattice $L(G)$ contains the normalizer of a certain subgroup of $G$. In this note, we find all finite groups satisfying this property. We also…
A group is SimpHAtic if it acts geometrically on a simply connected simplicially hereditarily aspherical (SimpHAtic) complex. We show that finitely presented normal subgroups of the SimpHAtic groups are either: finite, or of finite index,…
While lattices in semi-simple Lie groups are studied very well, only little is known about discrete subgroups of infinite covolume. The main class of examples are Schottky groups. Here we investigate some new examples. We consider subgroups…
Let $\mathcal G$ denote the space of finitely generated marked groups. For any finitely generated group $G$, we construct a continuous, injective map $f$ from the space of subgroups $Sub(G)$ to $\mathcal G$ that sends conjugate subgroups to…
Suppose G is a non-free finitely generated Kleinian group without parabolics which is not a lattice and let C(G) denote the commensurator in PSL(2,C). We prove that if the limit set of G is not a round circle, then C(G) is discrete.…
We show how to count and randomly generate finitely generated subgroups of the modular group $\textsf{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z})$ of a given isomorphism type. We also prove that almost malnormality and non-parabolicity are negligible properties for…
We prove that, given a finitely generated subgroup $H$ of a free group $F$, the following questions are decidable: is $H$ closed (dense) in $F$ for the pro-(met)abelian topology? is the closure of $H$ in $F$ for the pro-(met)abelian…
Let $S$ be either a free group or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface. We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated residually-$p$ group with the same pro-$p$ completion as $S$, then two-generated subgroups of $G$ are free.…
