Twisted Conjugacy Classes in Nilpotent Groups
A group is said to have the R∞ property if every automorphism has an infinite number of twisted conjugacy classes. We study the question whether G has the R∞ property when G is a finitely generated torsion-free nilpotent group. As a consequence, we show that for every positive integer n ≥ 5, there is a compact nilmanifold of dimension n on which every homeomorphism is isotopic to a fixed point ...
متن کاملSingleton doubly-twisted conjugacy classes in free groups
We give a simple method which can be used to show that an element of a free group is the only member of its doubly-twisted conjugacy class with respect to a pair of homomorphisms having a natural remnant property. We also show that most pairs of homomorphisms have infinitely many such singleton classes.
متن کاملComputing twisted conjugacy classes in free groups using nilpotent quotients
There currently exists no algebraic algorithm for computing twisted conjugacy classes in free groups. We propose a new technique for deciding twisted conjugacy relations using nilpotent quotients. Our technique is a generalization of the common abelianization method, but admits significantly greater rates of success. We present experimental results demonstrating the efficacy of the technique, a...
متن کاملProducts of Conjugacy Classes in Finite and Algebraic Simple Groups
We prove the Arad–Herzog conjecture for various families of finite simple groups — if A and B are nontrivial conjugacy classes, then AB is not a conjugacy class. We also prove that if G is a finite simple group of Lie type and A and B are nontrivial conjugacy classes, either both semisimple or both unipotent, then AB is not a conjugacy class. We also prove a strong version of the Arad–Herzog co...
متن کاملReality Properties of Conjugacy Classes in Algebraic Groups
Let G be an algebraic group defined over a field k. We call g ∈ G real if g is conjugate to g−1 and g ∈ G(k) as k-real if g is real in G(k). An element g ∈ G is strongly real if ∃h ∈ G, h2 = 1 (i.e. h is an involution) such that hgh−1 = g−1. Clearly, strongly real elements are real and are product of two involutions. Let G be a connected adjoint semisimple group over a perfect field k, with −1 ...
