We present a procedure of group cubization: It results in a group whose some features resemble the ones of a given group, and which acts without fixed points on a CAT(0) cubical complex. As a main application we establish lack of Kazhdan's…

We obtain upper bounds on the composition length of a finite permutation group in terms of the degree and the number of orbits, and analogous bounds for primitive, quasiprimitive and semiprimitive groups. Similarly, we obtain upper bounds…

We describe how properties of metric groups and of unitary representations of metric groups can be presented in continuous logic. In particular we find $L_{\omega_1 \omega}$-axiomatization of amenability. We also show that in the case of…

We prove for residually finite groups the following long standing conjecture: the number of twisted conjugacy classes of an automorphism of a finitely generated group is equal (if it is finite) to the number of finite dimensional…

A subset S of a finite group G invariably generates G if G = <hsg(s) j s 2 Si > for each choice of g(s) 2 G; s 2 S. We give a tight upper bound on the minimal size of an invariable generating set for an arbitrary finite group G. In response…

We characterize finite groups G generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space V whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two in terms of the corresponding quotient space V/G with its quotient…

We prove that the mapping class group of a closed oriented surface of genus at least two does not have Kazhdan's property (T).

We determine the finite groups whose real irreducible representations have different degrees.

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

A machine developed by the second author produces a rich family of unitary representations of the Thompson groups F,T and V. We use it to give direct proofs of two previously known results. First, we exhibit a unitary representation of V…

A B-group is a group such that all its minimal generating sets (with respect to inclusion) have the same size. We prove that the class of finite B-groups is closed under taking quotients and that every finite B-group is solvable. Via a…

We construct the first known infinite family of quasi-isometry classes of subgroups of hyperbolic groups which are not hyperbolic and are of type $\mathrm{FP}(\mathbb{Q})$. We give a simple criterion for producing many non-hyperbolic…

In this paper we obtain significant bounds for the number of maximal subgroups of a given index of a finite group. These results allow us to give new bounds for the number of random generators needed to generate a finite $d$-generated group…

It is shown that there exist finitely generated infinite simple groups of infinite commutator width and infinite square width on which there exists no stably unbounded conjugation-invariant norm, and in particular stable commutator length…

We introduce a new quasi-isometry invariant for finitely generated groups and show that every group with this property admits a subshift which is effectively closed by patterns and that cannot be realized as the topological factor of any…

We show that the automorphism group of a graph product of finite groups $Aut(G_\Gamma)$ has Kazhdan's property (T) if and only if $\Gamma$ is a complete graph.

Identities of complex irreducible representations of finite groups can be explicitly constructed from character value sets. Among other things, these identities determine representations up to Gassmann equivalency. Some examples of…

The aim of the article is to provide a characterization of Kazhdan's property (T) for locally compact, second countable pairs of groups $H\subset G$ in terms of actions on infinite, $\sigma$-finite measure spaces. It is inspired by the…

In this article, we consider tensor products of unitary representations by irreducible non-unitary finite dimensional representations of topological groups to define a property that is a twisting of Kazhdan's Property (T). We use the…

A subset S of a group G invariably generates G if G = <s^(g(s)) | s in S> for each choice of g(s) in G, s in S. In this paper we study invariable generation of infinite groups, with emphasis on linear groups. Our main result shows that a…
