Let $G$ be a group. For any $\mathbb{Z} G$--module $M$ and any integer $d>0$, we define a function $FV_{M}^{d+1}\colon \mathbb{N} \to \mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$ generalizing the notion of $(d+1)$--dimensional filling function of a group.…

Let G be a finite p-solvable group and P a Sylow p-subgroup of G. Suppose that $\gamma_{l(p-1)}(P)\subseteq \gamma_r(P)^{p^s}$ for $l(p-1)<r+s(p-1)$, then the p-length is bounded by a function depending on l.

A new pair of asymptotic invariants for finitely presented groups, called intrinsic and extrinsic tame filling functions, are introduced. These filling functions are quasi-isometry invariants that strengthen the notions of intrinsic and…

A pair $(\alpha, \beta)$ of simple closed geodesics on a closed and oriented hyperbolic surface $M_g$ of genus $g$ is called a filling pair if the complementary components of $\alpha\cup\beta$ in $M_g$ are simply connected. The length of a…

We study the relative growth of finitely generated subgroups in finitely generated groups, and the corresponding distortion function of the embeddings. We explore which functions are equivalent to the relative growth functions and…

Let $M$ be a closed orientable manifold. We introduce two numerical invariants, called filling volumes, on the mapping class group $\mathrm{MCG}(M)$ of $M$, which are defined in terms of filling norms on the space of singular boundaries on…

In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of lengths of $\tor$ modules of homologies of complexes under the iterations of the Frobenius functor in positive characteristic. We first give upper bounds to this type of length functions in…

We give an example of an infinite family of finite groups $G_n$ such that each $G_n$ can be generated by 2 elements and the diameter of every Cayley graph of $G_n$ is $O(\log (| G_{n}|))$. This answers a question of Lubotzky.

We prove that homological filling functions over a ring $R$ equipped with the discrete norm are quasi-isometry invariants for all groups of type $\mathrm{FP}_n$. This confirms a conjecture of Bader-Kropholler-Vankov in the case of discrete…

Let $G$ be a finite soluble group and $h(G)$ its Fitting length. The aim of this paper is to give certain upper bounds for $h(G)$ as functions of the Fitting length of at least three Hall subgroups of $G$ which factorize $G$ in a particular…

Groups of finite type (also called finitely constrained groups), introduced by Grigorchuk, are known to be the closure of regular branch groups. This article explores many of their properties. Firstly, we prove that being finitely…

A group is called $\Lambda$-free if it has a free Lyndon length function in an ordered abelian group $\Lambda$, which is equivalent to having a free isometric action on a $\Lambda$-tree. A group has a regular free length function in…

The nonsoluble length $\lambda (G)$ of a finite group $G$ is defined as the number of nonsoluble factors in a shortest normal series each of whose factors either is soluble or is a direct product of nonabelian simple groups. The generalized…

We study exact orbifold fillings of contact manifolds using Floer theories. Motivated by Chen-Ruan's orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants, we define symplectic cohomology of an exact orbifold filling as a group using classical techniques, i.e.…

The girth of a finitely generated group G is the supremum of the girth of Cayley graphs for G over all finite generating sets. Let G be a finitely generated subgroup of the mapping class group Mod(S), where S is a compact orientable…

Given a finite group with a generating subset there is a well-established notion of length for a group element given in terms of its minimal length expression as a product of elements from the generating set. Recently, certain quantities…

In these notes we determine the finiteness length of the groups G(O_S) where G is an F_q-isotropic, connected, noncommutative, almost simple F_q-group and O_S is one of F_q[t], F_q[t^{-1}], and F_q[t,t^{-1}]. That is, k = F_q(t) and S…

Let $\pi$ be a set of primes containing $2$ and an odd prime $p$. It is proved that if a finite group $G$ has a Hall $\pi$-subgroup $H$, then the non-$p$-soluble length of $G$ is bounded above by the generalized Fitting height of $H$. The…

Associated to any manifold equipped with a closed form of degree >1 is an `L-infinity algebra of observables' which acts as a higher/homotopy analog of the Poisson algebra of functions on a symplectic manifold. In order to study Lie group…

The homological and homotopical Dehn functions are different ways of measuring the difficulty of filling a closed curve inside a group or a space. The homological Dehn function measures fillings of cycles by chains, while the homotopical…
