We introduce a density model for random quotients of a free product of finitely generated groups. We prove that a random quotient in this model has the following properties with overwhelming probability: if the density is below $1/2$, the…

Let $F$ be a free group of finite rank. We say that the monomorphism problem in $F$ is decidable if for any two elements $u$ and $v$ in $F$, there is an algorithm that determines whether there exists a monomorphism of $F$ that sends $u$ to…

It was proved that for any finite set of elements of a free product of residually finite groups such that no two of them belong to conjugate cyclic subgroups and each of them do not belong to a subgroup which is conjugate a to free factor…

Using the technique developed in approximation theory, we construct examples of exponential families of infinitely divisible laws which can be viewed as deformations of the normal, gamma, and Poisson exponential families. Replacing the…

We give an analog of Frobenius' theorem about the factorization of the group determinant on the group algebra of finite abelian groups and we extend it into dihedral groups and generalized quaternion groups. Furthermore, we describe the…

The problem of finding the number of ordered commuting tuples of elements in a finite group is equivalent to finding the size of the solution set of the system of equations determined by the commutator relations that impose commutativity…

We study the Diophantine problem (decidability of finite systems of equations) in different classes of finitely generated solvable groups (nilpotent, polycyclic, metabelian, free solvable, etc), which satisfy some natural…

Can one detect free products of groups via their profinite completions? We answer positively among virtually free groups. More precisely, we prove that a subgroup of a finitely generated virtually free group $G$ is a free factor if and only…

We consider a continuous analogue of Babai et al.'s and Cai et al.'s problem of solving multiplicative matrix equations. Given $k+1$ square matrices $A_{1}, \ldots, A_{k}, C$, all of the same dimension, whose entries are real algebraic, we…

In this article, we introduce a notion of an exponential matrix, which is a polynomial matrix with exponential properties, and a notion of an equivalence relation of two exponential matrices, and then we initiate to study classifying…

Over each nontrivial finite group $G$, there exists a finite system of equations having no solutions in larger finite groups but having a solution in a periodic group containing $G$. We prove several similar facts about amenable, orderable,…

In 1962 M.J. Wicks gave a precise description of the form a commutator could take in a free group or a free product and in 1973 extended this description to cover a product of two squares. Subsequently, lists of "Wicks forms" were found for…

Friedl and L\"oh (2021, Confl. Math.) prove that testing whether or not there is an epimorphism from a finitely presented group to a virtually cyclic group, or to the direct product of an abelian and a finite group, is decidable. Here we…

We study one-variable equations over the lamplighter group $\MZ_2 \wr \MZ$. While the decidability of arbitrary equations over $L_2$ remains open, we prove that the Diophantine problem for single equations in one variable is decidable. Our…

Every finite non-nilpotent group can be extended by a term operation such that solving equations in the resulting algebra is NP-complete and checking identities is co-NP-complete. This result was firstly proven by Horv\'ath and Szab\'o; the…
