For each $p\geq 1$, the star automaton group $\mathcal{G}_{S_p}$ is an automaton group which can be defined starting from a star graph on $p+1$ vertices. We study Schreier graphs associated with the action of the group $\mathcal{G}_{S_p}$…

This paper explores a previously uncharted automaton group generated by a 5-state automaton $(\Pi, A)$ acts by self-similarity on the regular rooted tree $A^{*}$ over a 2-letter alphabet set $A$. Group $G$ has been subjected to several…

We give a geometric description of the Poisson boundaries of certain extensions of free and hyperbolic groups. In particular, we get a full description of the Poisson boundaries of free-by-cyclic groups. We rely upon the description of…

We study the isoperimetric profiles of certain families of finitely generated groups defined via marked Schreier graphs and permutation wreath products. The groups we study are among the "simplest" examples within a much larger class of…

For a subshift over a finite alphabet, a measure of the complexity of the system is obtained by counting the number of nonempty cylinder sets of length $n$. When this complexity grows exponentially, the automorphism group has been shown to…

It is shown that a group defined by forbidding all patterns of size s+1 that do not appear in a given self-similar group of tree automorphisms is the topological closure of a self-similar, countable, regular branch group, branching over its…

The scaling entropy of a p.m.p. action is a slow-entropy type invariant that characterizes the intermediate growth of entropy in a dynamical system. An amenable group $G$ has a scaling entropy growth gap if the scaling entropy of any its…

The automata arising from the well known conversion of regular expression to non deterministic automata have rather particular transition graphs. We refer to them as the Glushkov graphs, to honour his nice expression-to-automaton…

Let $p$ be a prime, $D$ a finite dimensional noncommutative division $\mathbb{Q}_p$-algebra, and $SL_1(D)$ the group of elements of $D$ of reduced norm $1$. When the center of $D$ is $\mathbb{Q}_p$, we prove that no open subgroup of…

This paper concerns the general problem of classifying the finite deterministic automata that admit a synchronizing (or reset) word. (For our purposes it is irrelevant if the automata has initial or final states.) Our departure point is the…

We present the analogue, for an arbitrary complex reductive group G, of the elliptic integrable systems of Sklyanin. The Sklyanin integrable systems were originally constructed on symplectic leaves, of a quadratic Poisson structure, on a…

Given a torsion-free $p$-adic analytic pro-$p$ group $G$ with $\mathrm{dim}(G) < p$, we show that the self-similar actions of $G$ on regular rooted trees can be studied through the virtual endomorphisms of the associated $\mathbb{Z}_p$-Lie…

We study some close relationships between the classes of transitive, fully transitive and Krylov transitive torsion-free Abelian groups. In addition, as an application of the achieved assertions, we resolve some oldstanding problems, posed…

This note describes the first example of a group that is amenable, but cannot be obtained by subgroups, quotients, extensions and direct limits from the class of groups locally of subexponential growth. It has a balanced presentation…

In this paper, we show that if G is a finite p-group (p prime) acting by automorphisms on a $\delta$-hyperbolic Poincare Duality group, then the fixed subgroup is a Poincare Duality group over Z/p. We also provide examples to show that the…

For an odd prime $p$, we determine the lower central series of a large family of non-periodic GGS-groups, which has a density of roughly $(\frac{p-1}{p})^2$ within all GGS-groups. This means a significant extension of the knowledge…

Let $H$ be a subgroup of a finite non-abelian group $G$ and $g \in G$. Let $Z(H, G) = \{x \in H : xy = yx, \forall y \in G\}$. We introduce the graph $\Delta_{H, G}^g$ whose vertex set is $G \setminus Z(H, G)$ and two distinct vertices $x$…

We show that every group in a large family of (not necessarily torsion) spinal groups acting on the ternary rooted tree is of subexponential growth.

In this paper we study the description of the functional graphs associated with the power maps over finite groups. We present a structural result which describes the isomorphism class of these graphs for abelian groups and also for flower…

We study non-nesting actions of groups on real trees. We prove some fixed point theorems for such actions under the assumption that groups are Polish and have comeagre conjugacy classes.
