We begin the investigation of Gamma-limit groups, where Gamma is a torsion-free group which is hyperbolic relative to a collection of free abelian subgroups. Using the results of Drutu and Sapir, we adapt the results from math.GR/0404440 to…

Let V(KG) be the normalized group of units of the group ring KG of a non-Dedekind group G with nontrivial torsion part t(G) over the integral domain K. We give a simple method for constructing free objects in V(KG).In particular, we show…

Gromov Hyperbolic groups have remarkable finiteness properties;for example those that are torsion-free are fundamental groups of finitecomplexes whose universal cover iscontractible (property~$F$). In this talk we will show thattheir…

We investigate the structure of subdirect products of groups, particularly their finiteness properties. We pay special attention to the subdirect products of free groups, surface groups and HNN extensions. We prove that a finitely presented…

Let $\Gamma$ be a torsion-free hyperbolic group. We study $\Gamma$--limit groups which, unlike the fundamental case in which $\Gamma$ is free, may not be finitely presentable or geometrically tractable. We define model $\Gamma$--limit…

Two groups have a common model geometry if they act properly and cocompactly by isometries on the same proper geodesic metric space. The Milnor-Schwarz lemma implies that groups with a common model geometry are quasi-isometric; however, the…

We construct an extension $E(A,G)$ of a given group $G$ by infinite non-Archimedean words over an discretely ordered abelian group like $Z^n$. This yields an effective and uniform method to study various groups that "behave like $G$". We…

In this paper we proved a pro-$\mathcal{C}$ version of the Rips-Sela Theorems on splittings as an amalgamated free product or HNN-extension over a cyclic subgroup, where $\mathcal{C}$ is a class of finite groups closed for subgroups,…

Free products of two residually finite groups with amalgamated retracts are considered. It is proved that a cyclic subgroup of such a group is not finitely separable if, and only if, it is conjugated with a subgroup of a free factor which…

In this paper we obtain uniform positive lower bounds on stable commutator length in word-hyperbolic groups and certain groups acting on hyperbolic spaces (namely the mapping class group acting on the complex of curves, and an amalgamated…

For all integers $p>q>0$ and $k >0$, and all non-elementary torsion-free hyperbolic groups $H$, we construct a hyperbolic group $G$ in which $H$ is a subgroup, such that the distortion function of $H$ in $G$ grows like $\exp^k(n^{p/q})$.…

Given isometric actions by a group G on finitely many \delta-hyperbolic metric spaces, we provide a sufficient condition that guarantees the existence of a single element in G that is hyperbolic for each action. As an application we prove a…

We show that if H is a non-elementary hyperbolic commensurated subgroup of infinite index in a hyperbolic group G, then H is virtually a free product of hyperbolic surface groups and free groups. We prove that whenever a one-ended…

In this note we show that any homomorphism from a pure surface braid group to a torsion-free hyperbolic group either has a cyclic image or factors through a forgetful map. This extends and gives a new proof of an earlier result of the…

The category of crossed complexes gives an algebraic model of CW-complexes and cellular maps. Free crossed resolutions of groups contain information on a presentation of the group as well as higher homological information. We relate this to…

This paper is devoted to the proof of the property of order separability for free product of free groups with maximal cyclic amalgamated subgroups.

We study verbally closed subgroups of free solvable groups. A number of results is proved that give sufficient conditions under whose a verbally closed subgroup is turned to be a retract and so algebraically closed of the full group.

We prove that the automorphism group of every infinitely-ended finitely generated group is acylindrically hyperbolic. In particular $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{F}_n)$ is acylindrically hyperbolic for every $n\ge 2$. More generally, if $G$ is a…

We examine the relationship between finitely and infinitely generated relatively hyperbolic groups, in two different contexts. First, we elaborate on a remark from math.GR/0601311, which states that the version of Dehn filling in relatively…

Let G be a word-hyperbolic group, obtained as a graph of free groups amalgamated along cyclic subgroups. If H_2(G;Q) is nonzero, then G contains a closed hyperbolic surface subgroup. Moreover, the unit ball of the Gromov-Thurston norm on…
