Curve graphs for Artin–Tits groups of type B, A∼ and C∼ are hyperbolic
The graph of irreducible parabolic subgroups is a combinatorial object associated to an Artin–Tits group A defined so as to coincide with the curve graph of the (n+1)‐times punctured disk when A is Artin's braid group on (n+1) strands.

Homotopy type of the complex of free factors of a free group
Abstract We show that the complex of free factors of a free group of rank n⩾2 is homotopy equivalent to a wedge of spheres of dimension n−2. We also prove that for n⩾2, the complement of (unreduced) Outer space in the free splitting complex is homotopy equivalent to the complex of free factor systems and moreover is (n−2)‐connected.

The Asymptotic Statistics of Random Covering Surfaces
Let $\Gamma _{g}$ be the fundamental group of a closed connected orientable surface of genus $g\geq 2$ . We develop a new method for integrating over the representation space $\mathbb {X}_{g,n}=\mathrm {Hom}(\Gamma _{g},S_{n})$ , where

Finite‐dimensional approximation properties for uniform Roe algebras
Abstract We study property A for metric spaces X with bounded geometry introduced by Guoliang Yu. Property A is an amenability‐type condition, which is less restrictive than amenability for groups. The property has a connection with finite‐dimensional approximation properties in the theory of operator algebras. It has been already known that property A

Growth functions for some uniformly amenable groups
We present a simple constructive proof of the fact that every abelian discrete group is uniformly amenable. We improve the growth function obtained earlier and find the optimal growth function in a particular case.

Generating numbers of rings graded by amenable and supramenable groups
A ring has unbounded generating number (UGN) if,for every positive integer , there is no -module epimorphism → +1. For a ring = ⨁g∈ g gradedby a group such that the base ring 1 has UGN, weidentify several sets of conditions under which mustalso have

A remark on the intersection of the conjugates of the base of quasi‐HNN groups
Quasi‐HNN groups can be characterized as a generalization of HNN groups. In this paper, we show that if G∗ is a quasi‐HNN group of base G, then either any two conjugates of G are identical or their intersection is contained in a conjugate of an associated subgroup of G.

On centralizers of elements of groups acting on trees with inversions
A subgroup H of a group G is called malnormal in G if it satisfies the condition that if g ∈ G and h ∈ H, h ≠ 1 such that ghg−1 ∈ H, then g ∈ H. In this paper, we show that if G is a group acting on a tree X with inversions such that each edge stabilizer is malnormal in G, then the centralizer C(g) of each nontrivial element g of G is in a vertex ...

We extend the structure theorem for the subgroups of the class of HNN groups to a new class of groups called quasi‐HNN groups. The main technique used is the subgroup theorem for groups acting on trees with inversions.
