The consistency problem for a class of algebraic structures asks for an algorithm to decide for any given conjunction of equations whether it admits a non-trivial satisfying assignment within some member of the class. By Adyan (1955) and…
Let $\Diffeo=\Diffeo(\R)$ denote the group of infinitely-differentiable diffeomorphisms of the real line $\R$, under the operation of composition, and let $\Diffeo^+$ be the subgroup of diffeomorphisms of degree +1, i.e.…
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field, $G$ a linear algebraic group over $k$ and $\varphi\in Aut(G)$, the group of all algebraic group automorphisms of $G$. Two elements $x, y$ of $G$ are said to be $\varphi$-twisted conjugate if…
We show that conjugacy of reversible cellular automata is undecidable, whether the conjugacy is to be performed by another reversible cellular automaton or by a general homeomorphism. This gives rise to a new family of finitely-generated…
We prove that the conjugacy problem in the first Grigorchuck group $\Gamma$ can be solved in linear time. Furthermore, the problem to decide if a list of elements $w_1,\ldots,w_k\in\Gamma$ contains a pair of conjugate elements can be solved…
Let G be a free group in a variety of groups, but G is not absolutely free. We prove that the group of automorphisms Aut(G) is linear iff G is a virtually nilpotent group.
The conjugacy problem belongs to algorithmic group theory. It is the following question: given two words x, y over generators of a fixed group G, decide whether x and y are conjugated, i.e., whether there exists some z such that zxz^{-1} =…
We consider the homogenized linear feasibility problem, to find an $x$ on the unit sphere, satisfying $n$ line ar inequalities $a_i^Tx\ge 0$. To solve this problem we consider the centers of the insphere of spherical simpl ices, whose…
In this survey, we address the worst-case, average-case, and generic-case time complexity of the word problem and some other algorithmic problems in several classes of groups and show that it is often the case that the average-case…
Suppose $G$ is a $p$-solvable group, where $p$ is odd. We explore the connection between lifts of Brauer characters of $G$ and certain local objects in $G$, called vertex pairs. We show that if $\chi$ is a lift, then the vertex pairs of…
The unification problem in algebras capable of describing sets has been tackled, directly or indirectly, by many researchers and it finds important applications in various research areas--e.g., deductive databases, theorem proving, static…
We give a precise definition of ``generic-case complexity'' and show that for a very large class of finitely generated groups the classical decision problems of group theory - the word, conjugacy and membership problems - all have…
We identify the complexity of the classification problem for automorphisms of a given countable regularly branching tree up to conjugacy. We consider both the rooted and unrooted cases. Additionally, we calculate the complexity of the…
In 1971 C.F.\ Miller associated to every finitely presented group $G$ a free-by-free group $M(G)$ known as the Miller Machine, whose conjugacy problem is closely related to the conjugacy and word problems of $G$. We quantify this…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a matrix for its centralizer in $\sf{GL}(n,\mathbb{Z})$ to be polycyclic, or equivalently in this case, not to contain a non-abelian free subgroup. We give a simple condition on the matrix…
Let $G$ be a finite $p$-group such that $x\Z(G) \subseteq x^G$ for all $x \in G- \Z(G)$, where $x^G$ denotes the conjugacy class of $x$ in $G$. Then $|G|$ divides $|\Aut(G)|$, where $\Aut(G)$ is the group of all automorphisms of $G$.
There are several graphs defined on groups. Among them we consider graphs whose vertex set consists conjugacy classes of a group $G$ and adjacency is defined by properties of the elements of conjugacy classes. In particular, we consider…
We consider the group G of R-automorphisms of the polynomial ring R[x] especially in the case where R is the ring of integers modulo n. We describe conjugacy classes in G, and in the case where n = 4, we describe more explicitly the…
We consider pairs of finitely presented, residually finite groups $P\hookrightarrow\G$ for which the induced map of profinite completions $\hat P\to \hat\G$ is an isomorphism. We prove that there is no algorithm that, given an arbitrary…
Many results have been established that show how the number of conjugacy classes appearing in the product of classes affect the structure of a finite group. The aim of this paper is to show several results about solvability concerning the…
