We introduce the notion of residual finiteness for categories. In analogy with the group-theoretic setting, we prove that free categories and finitely generated subcategories of finite-dimensional vector spaces are residually finite.…
We prove a formula for the sofic entropy of expansive principal algebraic actions of residually finite groups, extending recent work of Deninger and Schmidt.
In this paper, we give the definition of {\em weakly locally finite} division rings and we show that the class of these rings strictly contains the class of locally finite division rings. Further, we study multiplicative subgroups in these…
Examples are given of profinite groups that are not strongly complete, and have other `bad' properties, yet have only finitely many open subgroups of each finite index. It is shown that a profinite group with the latter property must be…
A group $G$ given by a presentation $G = < \mathcal A \| \mathcal R >$ is called weakly finitely presented if every finitely generated subgroup of $G$, generated by (images of) some words in $\mathcal A^{\pm 1}$, is naturally isomorphic to…
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 consider the group $\mathfrak{X}(G)$ obtained from $G\ast G$ by forcing each element $g$ in the first free factor to commute with the copy of $g$ in the second free factor. Deceptively complicated finitely presented groups arise from…
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…
Let $G$ be a virtually special group. Then the residual finiteness growth of $G$ is at most linear. This result cannot be found by embedding $G$ into a special linear group. Indeed, the special linear group $\text{SL}_k(\mathbb{Z})$, for $k…
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…
Residual finiteness is known to be an important property of groups appearing in combinatorial group theory and low dimensional topology. In a recent work [2] residual finiteness of quandles was introduced, and it was proved that free…
A criterion for the HNN-extension of a finite p-group to be residually a finite p-group is obtained and based on this criterion the sufficient condition for residuality a finite p-group of HNN-extension with arbitrary base group is proved.…
We prove a rigidity result for maps between \v{C}ech-Stone remainders under fairly mild forcing axioms.
We describe elementary examples of finitely presented sofic groups which are not residually amenable (and thus not initially subamenable or LEA, for short). We ask if an amalgam of two amenable groups over a finite subgroup is residually…
We give a simple, elementary proof that a uniform algebra is weakly sequentially complete if and only if it is finite-dimensional.
We define a notion of relative soficity for countable groups with respect to a family of groups. A group is sofic if and only if it is relative sofic with respect to the family consisting only of the trivial group. If a group is relatively…
It is proven that an infinite finitely generated group cannot be elementarily equivalent to an ultraproduct of finite groups of a given Pr\"ufer rank. Furthermore, it is shown that an infinite finitely generated group of finite Pr\"ufer…
The purpose of this work is to bound sofic topological entropy of Toeplitz systems over residually finite groups and to prove the Krieger Theorem about attaining arbitrary entropy by the Toeplitz systems. To achieve these results, we…
If V is a finitely generated variety such that the first-order theory of the finite members of V is decidable, we show that V is residually finite, and in fact has a finite bound on the sizes of subdirectly irreducible algebras. This result…
We give an example of a sofic group, which is not a limit of amenable groups.
