We are interested in the subgroup membership problem in groups acting on rooted $d$-regular trees and a natural class of subgroups, the stabilisers of infinite rays emanating from the root. These rays, which can also be viewed as infinite…

Let $p$ be a prime. The right-angled Artin pro-$p$ group $G_{\Gamma}$ associated to a fnite simplicial graph $\Gamma$ is the pro-$p$ completion of the right-angled Artin group associated to $\Gamma$. We prove that the following assertions…

We generalize to (certain) Artin groups some results previously known for right-angled Artin groups (RAAGs). First, we generalize a result by Droms, B. Servatius, and H. Servatius, and prove that the derived subgroup of an Artin group is…

Let $G$ be the fundamental group of a graph of finitely generated virtually free groups with virtually cyclic edge groups. We shaw that $G$ is cohomologically good if $G$ is residually finite. If $G$ is LERF, we prove that G splits…

Let $G$ be an infinite group and let $X$ be a finite generating set for $G$ such that the growth series of $G$ with respect to $X$ is a rational function; in this case $G$ is said to have rational growth with respect to $X$. In this paper a…

We present an algorithm which takes as input a finite set $X$ of automorphisms of a simplicial tree, and outputs a generating set $X'$ of $\langle X \rangle$ such that either $\langle X \rangle$ is purely hyperbolic and $X'$ is a free basis…

In this paper we study the elementary theory of graph products of groups and show that under natural conditions on the vertex groups we can recover (the core of) the underlying graph and the associated vertex groups. More precisely, we…

Let $\Lambda_0$ be an ordered abelian group. We show how an $\mathrm{ATF}(\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0)$ group -- that is, a group admitting a free affine action without inversions on a $\mathbb{Z}\times\Lambda_0$-tree -- admits a natural…

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…

We show that the twisted conjugacy problem is solvable for large-type Artin groups whose outer automorphism group is finite, generated by graph automorphisms and the global inversion. This includes XXXL Artin groups whose defining graph is…

A $1-$factorization of a complete graph on $2n$ vertices is said to be $G-$regular if it posseses an automorphism group $G$ acting sharply transitively on the vertex-set. The problem of determining which groups can realize such a situation…

A new infinite series of rational affine algebraic varieties is constructed whose automorphism group contains the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(F_n)$ of the free group $F_n$ of rank $n$. The automorphism groups of such varieties are…

We establish several results on the word problem for just infinite groups. First, for finitely generated just infinite groups we show that the word problem is uniformly decidable for presentations with recursively enumerable sets of…

Asymptotic expansions of Gaussian integrals may often be interpreted as generating functions for certain combinatorial objects (graphs with additional data). In this article we discuss a general approach to all such cases using colored…

For every positive integer $n$, we construct, using algebraic groups, an infinite family of irreducible algebraic varieties $X$,whose automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(X)$ contains the automorphism group ${\rm Aut}(F_n)$ of a free group $F_n$…

The commuting graph of a group $G$ is the graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$, two distinct vertices joined if they commute. Our purpose in this paper is twofold: we discuss the computational problem of deciding whether a given…

We show that the class of $\mathcal{C}$-hereditarily conjugacy separable groups is closed under taking arbitrary graph products whenever the class $\mathcal{C}$ is an extension closed variety of finite groups. As a consequence we show that…

(Free-abelian)-by-free, self-similar groups generated by finite self-similar sets of tree automorphisms and having unsolvable conjugacy problem are constructed. Along the way, orbit undecidable, free subgroups of GL_d(Z), for d > 5, and…

The Tits alternative states that a finitely generated matrix group either contains a nonabelian free subgroup $F_2$, or it is virtually solvable. This paper considers two decision problems in virtually solvable matrix groups: the Identity…

We show that the Gromov boundary of the free factor graph for the free group Fn with n>2 generators is the space of equivalence classes of minimal very small indecomposable projective Fn-trees without point stabilizer containing a free…
