On the dimension of Z-sets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We offer a short and elementary proof that, for a Z-set A in a finite-dimensional ANR Y ...

On centralizers of elements of groups acting on trees with inversions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 2003, Issue 20, Page 1241-1249, 2003., 2003
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 ...

Subgroups of quasi‐HNN groups

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 31, Issue 12, Page 731-743, 2002., 2002
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.

On invertor elements and finitely generated subgroups of groups acting on trees with inversions

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, Volume 23, Issue 9, Page 585-595, 2000., 2000
An element of a group acting on a graph is called invertor if it transfers an edge of the graph to its inverse. In this paper, we show that if G is a group acting on a tree X with inversions such that G does not fix any element of X, then an element g of G is invertor if and only if g is not in any vertex stabilizer of G and g2 is in an edge stabilizer

EQUIVARIANT GEOMETRY OF BANACH SPACES AND TOPOLOGICAL GROUPS

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2017
We study uniform and coarse embeddings between Banach spaces and topological groups. A particular focus is put on equivariant embeddings, that is, continuous cocycles associated to continuous affine isometric actions of topological groups on separable ...

Random groups and nonarchimedean lattices

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Sigma, 2014
We consider models of random groups in which the typical group is of intermediate rank (in particular, it is not hyperbolic). These models are parallel to Gromov’s well-known constructions, and include for example a ‘density model’ for groups of ...

On geometric polygroups

open access: yesAnalele Stiintifice ale Universitatii Ovidius Constanta: Seria Matematica, 2020
In this paper, we introduce a geodesic metric space called generalized Cayley graph (gCay(P,S)) on a finitely generated polygroup. We define a hyperaction of polygroup on gCayley graph and give some properties of this hyperaction.

CANNON–THURSTON MAPS FOR KLEINIAN GROUPS

open access: yesForum of Mathematics, Pi, 2017
We show that Cannon–Thurston maps exist for degenerate free groups without parabolics, that is, for handlebody groups. Combining these techniques with earlier work proving the existence of Cannon–Thurston maps for surface groups, we show that Cannon ...

Metric lines in the jet space

open access: yesAnalysis and Geometry in Metric Spaces
In the realm of sub-Riemannian manifolds, a relevant question is: what are the metric lines (isometric embedding of the real line)? The space of kk-jets of a real function of one real variable xx, denoted by Jk(R,R){J}^{k}\left({\mathbb{R}},{\mathbb{R}}),

Bounding the homological finiteness length

open access: yes, 2012
We give a criterion for bounding the homological finiteness length of certain HF-groups. This is used in two distinct contexts. Firstly, the homological finiteness length of a non-uniform lattice on a locally finite n-dimensional contractible CW-complex ...
