The first author and Oguni introduced a class of groups of non-positive curvature, called coarsely convex group. The recent success of the theory of groups which are hyperbolic relative to a collection of subgroups has motivated the study…

In this article, we prove that, given two finite connected graphs $\Gamma_1$ and $\Gamma_2$, if the two right-angled Artin groups $A(\Gamma_1)$ and $A(\Gamma_2)$ are quasi-isometric, then the infinite pointed sums $\bigvee_\mathbb{N}…

We exhibit closed hyperbolic manifolds with arbitrarily small systole in each dimension that are not quasi-arithmetic in the sense of Vinberg, and are thus not commensurable to those constructed by Agol, Belolipetsky--Thomson, and…

Let $G$ be a torsion-free, finitely-generated, nilpotent and metabelian group. In this work we show that $G$ embeds into the group of orientation preserving $C^{1+\alpha}$-diffeomorphisms of the compact interval, for all $\alpha< 1/k$ where…

For every compact, connected manifold $M$, we prove the existence of a sentence $\phi_M$ in the language of groups such that the homeomorphism group of another compact manifold $N$ satisfies $\phi_M$ if and only if $N$ is homeomorphic to…

This is the second of a three part study of relative free splitting complexes $\mathcal{FS}(\Gamma;\mathscr A)$, known from Part~I to be Gromov hyperbolic. Here and in~Part III we focus on stable translation lengths $\tau_\phi \ge 0$ of the…

The primary method for showing that a given cubulated group is hierarchically hyperbolic is by constructing a factor system on the cube complex. In this paper we show that such a construction is not always possible, namely we construct a…

We prove that hyperbolic groups with logarithmic separation profiles split over cyclic groups. This shows that such groups can be inductively built from Fuchsian groups and free groups by amalgamations and HNN extensions over finite or…

Given a group acting on a Gromov hyperbolic space, Bestvina and Fujiwara introduced the WPD property --- weak proper discontinuity --- for studying the 2nd bounded cohomology of the group. We carry out a more general study of second bounded…

This is the second part of a two part work in which we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma < \mathsf{Out}(F_n)$, either $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian or its second bounded cohomology $H^2_b(\Gamma;\mathbb{R})$ contains…

In this two part work we prove that for every finitely generated subgroup $\Gamma < \text{Out}(F_n)$, either $\Gamma$ is virtually abelian or $H^2_b(\Gamma;\mathbb{R})$ contains an embedding of $\ell^1$. The method uses actions on…

We study the large scale geometry of the relative free splitting complex and the relative free factor complex of the rank $n$ free group $F_n$, relative to the choice of a free factor system of $F_n$, proving that these complexes are…

This is the last of a three part work about relative free splitting complexes $\mathcal{FS}(\Gamma,\mathscr{A})$ and their actions by relative outer automorphism groups $\text{Out}(\Gamma;\mathscr{A})$. We obtain quantitative relations…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime. We prove that if $G$ has three codegrees, then $G$ is an $M$-group. We prove for some prime $p$ that if every irreducible Brauer character of $G$ is a prime, then for every normal subgroup $N$…

In 2007, J. P. Cossey conjectured that if $G$ is a finite $p$-solvable group and $\varphi$ is an irreducible Brauer character of $G$ with vertex $Q$, then the number of lifts of $\varphi$ is at most $|Q:Q'|$. In this paper we revisited…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $p$ be a prime. We denote by $C_p(G)$ the poset of all cosets of $p$-subgroups of $G$. We characterize the homotopy type of the geometric realization $|\Delta C_p(G)|$ for $p$-closed groups $G$, which is…

In this paper, we introduce and study a class of monoids, called Layered Catalan Monoids (\( {LC}_n \)), which satisfy the structural conditions for $\ll$-smoothness as defined in~\cite{Sha-Det2}. These monoids are defined by specific…

We generalize the enhanced power graph by replacing elements with conjugacy classes. The main result of this paper is to determine when this graph is triangle-free.

We generalize the enhanced power graph by replacing elements with classes under automorphisms. We show that the connectivity and diameter of this graph is similar to that of the enhanced power graph. We consider the universal vertices of…

For a convergence group equipped with an expanding coarse-cocycle, we construct finitely generated free subsemigroups, which we call $\textit{Bishop--Jones}$ $\textit{semigroups}$, of critical exponent arbitrarily close to but strictly less…
