We say A is a quasi-normal subgroup of the group G if the commensurator of A in G is all of G. We develop geometric versions of commensurators in finitely generated groups. In particular, g is an element of the commensurator of A in G iff…
A subgroup $H$ of a group $G$ is $commensurated$ in $G$ if for each $g\in G$, $gHg^{-1}\cap H$ has finite index in both $H$ and $gHg^{-1}$. If there is a sequence of subgroups $H=Q_0\prec Q_1\prec ...\prec Q_{k}\prec Q_{k+1}=G$ where $Q_i$…
Let $\mathbb{E}$ be the HNN-extension of a group $B$ with subgroups $H$ and $K$ associated according to an isomorphism $\varphi\colon H \to K$. Suppose that $H$ and $K$ are normal in $B$ and $(H \cap K)\varphi = H \cap K$. Under these…
Let $S$ be either a free group or the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic surface. We show that if $G$ is a finitely generated residually-$p$ group with the same pro-$p$ completion as $S$, then two-generated subgroups of $G$ are free.…
A relatively hyperbolic group $G$ is said to be QCERF if all finitely generated relatively quasiconvex subgroups are closed in the profinite topology on $G$. Assume that $G$ is a QCERF relatively hyperbolic group with double coset separable…
Any virtually free group $H$ containing no non-trivial finite normal subgroup (e.g., the infinite dihedral group) is a retract of any finitely generated group containing $H$ as a verbally closed subgroup.
A residually finite (profinite) group $G$ is just infinite if every non-trivial (closed) normal subgroup of $G$ is of finite index. This paper considers the problem of determining whether a (closed) subgroup $H$ of a just infinite group is…
If G is a semidirect product N by H with N normal and finitely generated then G has the property that every finite group is a quotient of some finite index subgroup of G if and only if one of N and H has this property. This has applications…
A subgroup Q is commensurated in a group G if each G conjugate of Q intersects Q in a group that has finite index in both Q and the conjugate. So commensurated subgroups are similar to normal subgroups. Semistability and simple connectivity…
We construct a finitely generated residually finite group $G$ with the property that every finite index subgroup of $G$ contains a subgroup isomorphic to Promislow's group. Hence $G$ does not have a finite index subgroup with the unique…
Suppose $G$ is a finitely presented group that is hyperbolic relative to ${\bf P}$ a finite collection of 1-ended finitely generated proper subgroups of $G$. If $G$ and the ${\bf P}$ are 1-ended and the boundary $\partial (G,{\bf P})$ has…
We explore transversals of finite index subgroups of finitely generated groups. We show that when $H$ is a subgroup of a rank $n$ group $G$ and $H$ has index at least $n$ in $G$ then we can construct a left transversal for $H$ which…
A tubular group $G$ is a finite graph of groups with $\mathbb{Z}^2$ vertex groups and $\mathbb{Z}$ edge groups. We characterize residually finite tubular groups: $G$ is residually finite if and only if its edge groups are separable. Methods…
We show that Out(G) is residually finite if G is a one-ended group that is hyperbolic relative to virtually polycyclic subgroups. More generally, if G is one-ended and hyperbolic relative to proper residually finite subgroups, the group of…
We provide polynomial lower bounds for residual finiteness of residually finite, finitely generated solvable groups that admit infinite order elements in the Fitting subgroup of strict distortion at least exponential. For this class of…
Let $G$ be a residually finite, good group of finite virtual cohomological dimension. We prove that the natural monomorphism $G\hookrightarrow\hat{G}$ induces a bijective correspondence between conjugacy classes of finite $p$-subgroups of…
We construct an infinite finitely generated recursively presented residually finite algorithmically finite group $G$ answering thereby a question of Myasnikov and Osin. Moreover, $G$ is "very infinite" and "very algorithmically finite" in…
A subgroup $H$ of a finite group $G$ is said to be an $\mathscr{H}C$-subgroup of $G$ if there exists a normal subgroup $T$ of $G$ such that $G=HT$ and $H^g \cap N_T(H)\leq H$ for all $g\in G$. In this paper, we investigate the structure of…
Let G be a finite group. A subgroup M of G is said to be an NR-subgroup if, whenever K is normal in M, then K^G\cap M=K, where K^G is the normal closure of K in G. Using the Classification of Finite Simple Groups, we prove that if every…
Given a class $\mathcal{P}$ of groups we say that a group $G$ is fully residually $\mathcal{P}$ if for any finite subset $F$ of $G$, there exists an epimorphism from $G$ to a group in $\mathcal{P}$ which is injective on $F$. It is known…
