We discuss many surprising implications of a positive answer to a question raised in some cases by Greenberg in the $`70$s and more generally by Shalom in the early $2000$s. We refer to this positive answer as the Greenberg-Shalom…

The \emph{difference subgroup graph} $D(G)$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as the graph whose vertices are the non-trivial proper subgroups of $G$, with two distinct vertices $H$ and $K$ adjacent if and only if $\langle H, K \rangle = G$…

Perhaps the fundamental theorem of geometric group theory, the Milnor--Schwarz lemma gives conditions under which the orbit map relating the geometry of a geodesic metric space and the word metric on a group acting isometrically on the…

Let $B$ be an equivalence relation defined on a finite group $G$. The $B$ super commuting graph on $G$ is a graph whose vertex set is $G$ and two distinct vertices $g$ and $h$ are adjacent if either $[g] = [h]$ or there exist $g' \in [g]$…

A character of a finite group having degree $n$ takes values which may be expressed as sums of $n$ or fewer roots of unity. In this note, we prove a result which describes the irreducible constituents of generalized characters on abelian…

We introduce the notion of "Banach metrics" on finitely generated infinite groups. This extends the notion of a Cayley graph (as a metric space). Our motivation comes from trying to detect the existence of virtual homomorphisms into Z, the…

We show that the second bounded cohomology of the free product of racks and quandles is infinite-dimensional as a real vector space. This is similar to the case of groups. As a corollary, we show that the second bounded cohomology of the…

Let $n\geq 2$. Let $VB_n$ (resp. $VP_n$) denote the virtual braid group (resp. virtual pure braid group), let $WB_n$ (resp. $WP_n$) denote the welded braid group (resp. welded pure braid group) and let $UVB_n$ (resp. $UVP_n$) denote the…

In this paper we prove that all pure Artin braid groups $P_n$ ($n\geq 3$) have the $R_\infty$ property. In order to obtain this result, we analyse the naturally induced morphism $\operatorname{\text{Aut}}(P_n) \to…

In their theorem from 2006, A. Dranishnikov and J. Smith prove that if $f:G\to H$ is a group homomorphism, then the following formula for asymptotic dimension is true: $\operatorname{asdim} G \leq \operatorname{asdim} H +…

For every $n\geq 1$, the flat braid group $\mathrm{FB}_n$ is an analogue of the braid group $B_n$ that can be described as the fundamental group of the configuration space $$\left\{ \{x_1, \ldots, x_n \} \in \mathbb{R}^n / \mathrm{Sym}(n)…

We give conditions of an extension of a free group to be hyperbolic and relatively hyperbolic using the dynamics of the action of $\out$ on the complex of free factors combined with the weak attraction theory. We work with subgroups of…

We start with a Gromov-hyperbolic surface bundle $E$ over a graph, and drill out essential simple closed curves from fibers to obtain a drilled bundle $F$. We prove that for such drilled bundles $F$, the fundamental group $\pi_1(F)$ is…

In this paper we determine a classification of the endomorphisms of the Artin group $A [D_n]$ of type $D_n$ for $n\ge 6$. In particular we determine its automorphism group and its outer automorphism group. We also determine a classification…

In this paper we investigate the $directed$ $normalizing$ $graph$ associated with a group $G$, defined as the simple directed graph whose vertices are the elements of $G$, with an arrow from $x$ to $y$ whenever the subgroup $\langle x…

An automorphism of a building is called uniclass if the Weyl distance between any chamber and its image lies in a unique (twisted) conjugacy class of the Coxeter group. In a previous paper we characterised uniclass automorphisms of…

We prove (using grammars) that the free inverse monoid of every finite rank has co-context-free word problem. Equivalently, the co-word problem of the free inverse monoid of every finite rank is context-free.

In [16], Tarnauceanu studied the poset Iso(G), of isomorphic classes of subgroups of a finite group G and proposed several questions for further research. In this paper, we study the poset AutCl(G), of classes of automorphic subgroups of…

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…

We present a general construction of eventually periodic projective resolutions for modules over quotients of rings of finite left global dimension by a regular central element. Our approach utilizes a construction of Shamash, combined with…
