We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic morphism f with an infinite postcritical orbit over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a…

We study in detail the profinite group G arising as geometric \'etale iterated monodromy group of an arbitrary quadratic polynomial over a field of characteristic different from two. This is a self-similar closed subgroup of the group of…

A profinite group is called small if it has only finitely many open subgroups of index n for each positive integer n. We show that every Frattini cover of a small profinite group is small. A profinite group is called strongly complete if…

We associate a group $IMG(f)$ to every covering $f$ of a topological space $M$ by its open subset. It is the quotient of the fundamental group $\pi_1(M)$ by the intersection of the kernels of its monodromy action for the iterates $f^n$.…

We prove that the class of closed subgroups of free profinite monoids is precisely the class of projective profinite groups. In particular, the profinite groups associated to minimal symbolic dynamical systems by Almeida are projective. Our…

We obtain some general restrictions on the continuous endomorphisms of a profinite group G under the assumption that G has only finitely many open subgroups of each index (an assumption which automatically holds, for instance, if G is…

There are many results showing the connection and phenomenon between some low-dimensional manifolds with the profinite completions of their fundamental groups. We focus on some Seifert 4-manifolds about the extent of their profinite…

The purpose of this paper is to extend some useful results, such as the multiplication being open, previously known for suitable finitely generated relatively free profinite semigroups, to relatively free profinite semigroupoids over…

In this article, we study the properties of profinite geometric iterated monodromy groups associated to polynomials. Such groups can be seen as generic representations of absolute Galois groups of number fields into the automorphism group…

We prove that amongst the class of free-by-cyclic groups, Gromov hyperbolicity is an invariant of the profinite completion. We show that whenever $G$ is a free-by-cyclic group with first Betti number equal to one, and $H$ is a…

We study profinite actions of residually finite groups in terms of weak containment. We show that two strongly ergodic profinite actions of a group are weakly equivalent if and only if they are isomorphic. This allows us to construct…

A profinite group equipped with an expansive endomorphism is equivalent to a one-sided group shift. We show that these groups have a very restricted structure. More precisely, we show that any such group can be decomposed into a finite…

We investigate accessible subgroups of a profinite group $G$, i.e. subgroups $H$ appearing as vertex groups in a graph of profinite groups decomposition of $G$ with finite edge groups. We prove that any accessible subgroup $H \leq G$ arises…

The subgroup lattice of a group is a great source of information about the structure of the group itself. The aim of this paper is to use a similar tool for studying profinite groups. In more detail, we study the lattices of closed or open…

We show that a free-by-cyclic group with a polynomially growing monodromy is subgroup separable exactly when it is virtually $F_n \times \mathbb{Z}$. We also prove that random deficiency 1 groups are not subgroup separable with positive…

We prove that there exist finitely presented, residually finite groups that are profinitely rigid in the class of all finitely presented groups but not in the class of all finitely generated groups. These groups are of the form $\Gamma…

Profinite semigroups are a generalization of finite semigroups that come about naturally when one is interested in considering free structures with respect to classes of finite semigroups. They also appear naturally through dualization of…

This paper introduces iterated monodromy groups for transcendental functions and discusses them in the simplest setting, for post-singularly finite exponential functions. These groups are self-similar groups in a natural way, based on an…

We prove a rigidity theorem for semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups: If $\Gamma_1$, $\Gamma_2$ are two semi-arithmetic lattices in $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})$ virtually admitting modular embeddings and $f\colon\Gamma_1\to\Gamma_2$ is a group…

A theorem of A.A. Brudno says that the Kolmogorov-Sinai entropy of a subshift X over $\mathbb{N}$ with respect to an ergodic measure $\mu$ equals the asymptotic Kolmogorov complexity of almost every word $\omega$ in X. The purpose of this…
