The solvable Baumslag Solitar groups $\text{BS}(1,n)$ each admit a canonical model space, $X_n$. We give a complete classification of lattices in $G_n = \text{Isom}^+(X_n)$ and find that such lattices fail to be strongly…

We exhibit a weakly aperiodic tile set for Baumslag-Solitar groups, and prove that the domino problem is undecidable on these groups. A consequence of our construction is the existence of an arecursive tile set on Baumslag-Solitar groups.

A group $\Gamma$ has separable cohomology if the profinite completion map $\iota \colon \Gamma \to \widehat{\Gamma}$ induces an isomorphism on cohomology with finite coefficient modules. In this article, cohomological separability is…

The Baumslag-Solitar groups: BS(m,n)=<x,y| x y^{m} x^{-1} = y^{n}> are some of the simplest interesting infinite groups which are not lattices in Lie groups. They have been studied in depth from the point of view of combinatorial group…

We characterize when a generalized Baumslag-Solitar group is linear, and extend the result to the fundamental groups of a graph of groups with infinite virtually cyclic vertex and edge groups.

We prove that metabelian Baumslag$-$Solitar group $BS(1,k)$, $k>1$, is (strongly) regularly bi-interpretable with the ring of integers $\mathbb{Z}$, and describe in algebraic terms all groups that are elementarily equivalent to $BS(1,k)$.

We prove that each residually finite Baumslag-Solitar group can be distinguished by its finite quotients from all other residually finite Baumslag-Solitar groups.

Generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups are defined as fundamental groups of graphs of groups with infinite cyclic vertex and edge groups. Forester proved (in "On uniqueness of JSJ decompositions of finitely generated groups", Comment. Math.…

We give a parametrization by $m$-adic integers of the limits of Baumslag-Solitar groups (marked with a canonical set of generators). It is shown to be continuous and injective on the invertible $m$-adic integers. We show that all such…

We classify surface Houghton groups, as well as their pure subgroups, up to isomorphism, commensurability, and quasi-isometry.

By classifying $S$-maximal amenable subgroups of algebraic groups over a global field of characteristic zero, we obtain a complete classification of maximal amenable subgroups up to commensurability in the respective arithmetic groups.…

We determine all generalized Baumslag-Solitar groups (finitely generated groups acting on a tree with all stabilizers infinite cyclic) which are quotients of a given Baumslag-Solitar group BS(m,n), and (when BS(m,n) is not Hopfian) which of…

A generalized Baumslag-Solitar group (GBS group) is a finitely generated group $G$ which acts on a tree with all edge and vertex stabilizers infinite cyclic. We show that Out(G) either contains non-abelian free groups or is virtually…

Baumslag-Solitar groups were introduced in 1962 by Baumslag and Solitar as examples for finitely presented non-Hopfian two-generator groups. Since then, they served as examples for a wide range of purposes. As Baumslag-Solitar groups are…

Our main result is that many triangles of Baumslag-Solitar groups collapse to finite groups, generalizing a famous example of Hirsch. A triangle of Baumslag-Solitar groups means a group with three generators, cyclically ordered, with each…

A class of one-relator groups such that every group in the class is determined by a triple of integers and is an HNN-extension of some Baumslag -- Solitar group is considered. A criterion for two groups in this class to be isomorphic and…

We compute the Bieri-Neumann-Strebel invariants $\Sigma^1$ for the generalized solvable Baumslag-Solitar groups $\Gamma_n$ and their finite index subgroups. Using $\Sigma^1$, we show that certain finite index subgroups of $\Gamma_n$ cannot…

We develop a theory of commensurability of groups, of rings, and of modules. It allows us, in certain cases, to compare sizes of automorphism groups of modules, even when those are infinite. This work is motivated by the Cohen-Lenstra…

Using the functor of Baumslag rationalization of groups we construct a functor on the category of all (non necessarily simply connected) spaces that extends the classical rationalization of simply connected spaces. We study this functor and…

We present a method for computing the number of epimorphisms from a finitely-presented group G to a finite solvable group \Gamma, which generalizes a formula of G\"aschutz. Key to this approach are the degree 1 and 2 cohomology groups of G,…
