Let Gamma be a torsion-free group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of free abelian subgroups. We construct Makanin-Razborov diagrams for Gamma. We also prove that every system of equations over Gamma is equivalent to a finite…

This paper is the first in a sequence on the structure of sets of solutions to systems of equations over a free semigroup. To describe the structure, we present a Makanin-Razborov diagram that encodes the set of solutions to such system of…

We give a description of $Hom(G,L)$, where $L$ is a limit group (fully residually free group). We construct a finite diagram of groups, Makanin-Razborov diagram, that gives a convinient representation of all such homomorphisms.

Using an analogue of Makanin-Razborov diagrams, we give a description of the solution set of systems of equations over an equationally Noetherian free product of groups $G$. Equivalently, we give a parametrisation of the set $Hom(H, G)$ of…

The JSJ decomposition and the Makanin-Razborov diagram were proved to be essential in studying varieties over free groups, semigroups and associative algebras. In this paper we suggest a unified conceptual approach to the applicability of…

Sets of solutions to finite systems of equations in a free group, are equivalent to sets of homomorphisms from a fixed f.p. group into a free group. The latter can be encoded in a diagram, the construction of which is valid also for f.g.…

This paper is the first in a sequence on the structure of sets of solutions to systems of equations over a free associative algebra. We start by constructing a Makanin-Razborov diagram that encodes all the homogeneous solutions to a…

In this paper, we study the so-called diagram groups. Our main result is that diagram groups are free if and only if they do not contain any subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}^2$. As an immediate corollary, we get that hyperbolic diagram…

Given a periodic quotient of a torsion-free hyperbolic group, we provide a fine lower estimate of the growth function of any sub-semi-group. This generalizes results of Razborov and Safin for free groups.

In 1977, Makanin established the decidability of equations in free monoids. A key ingredient in his proof is the exponent of periodicity: for a word $w$, it is the largest exponent $e$ such that $w$ contains a nonempty factor of the form…

This paper represents notes of the mini-courses given by the authors at the GCGTA conference in Dortmund (2007), Ottawa-Saint Sauveur conference (2007), Escola d'Algebra in Rio de Janeiro (2008) and Alagna (Italy, 2008) conference on…

We prove three results about the graph product $G=\G(\Gamma;G_v, v \in V(\Gamma))$ of groups $G_v$ over a graph $\Gamma$. The first result generalises a result of Servatius, Droms and Servatius, proved by them for right-angled Artin groups;…

Two groups have a common model geometry if they act properly and cocompactly by isometries on the same proper geodesic metric space. The Milnor-Schwarz lemma implies that groups with a common model geometry are quasi-isometric; however, the…

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…

We establish a platform to transfer $L_p$-completely bounded maps on tensor products of von Neumann algebras to $L_p$-completely bounded maps on the corresponding amalgamated free products. As a consequence, we obtain a H\"ormander-Mikhlin…

We define analogues of the graphs of free splittings, of cyclic splittings, and of maximally-cyclic splittings of $F_N$ for free products of groups, and show their hyperbolicity. Given a countable group $G$ which splits as…

We establish a general criterion for the finite presentability of subdirect products of groups and use this to characterize finitely presented residually free groups. We prove that, for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$, a residually free group is of…

We study finite subgroups of outer automorphisms of free products. We give upper bounds for the orders of these finite subgroups as well as bounds for the orders of individual torsion outer automorphisms under some (necessary) conditions…

In a series of papers starting in [Sel01] and culminating in [Sel07], Z. Sela proved that free groups, and more generally torsion-free hyperbolic groups, have a stable first-order theory. The question of the stability of the free product of…

We show that finitely generated mapping tori of free groups have a canonical collection of maximal sub-mapping tori of finitely generated free groups with respect to which they are relatively hyperbolic and locally relatively quasi-convex.…
