Solvable Groups Acting on the Line
Actions of discrete groups on the real line are considered. When the group of homeomorphisms is solvable several sufficient conditions are given which guarantee that the group is semiconjugate to a subgroup of the affine group of the line. In the process of obtaining these results sufficient conditions are also determined for the existence of invariant (quasi-invariant) measures for abelian (so...
متن کاملOn the theories of free solvable groups’
We prove that the terms of the derived series of a free solvable group are definable by existential formulae. We use this result to prove some ‘model theoretic’ results about free solvable groups. For example, we prove that if Hilbert’s 10th problem has a negative answer for the field of the rationals, then the universal theory of a noncyclic free solvable group of class > 3 is undecidable. @ 1...
متن کاملThe entropy of solvable groups
We prove that any finitely generated solvable group of zero entropy contains a nilpotent subgroup of finite index. In particular, any finitely generated solvable group of exponential growth is of uniformly exponential growth.
متن کاملCharacterization of Solvable Groups and Solvable radical
We give a survey of new characterizations of finite solvable groups and the solvable radical of an arbitrary finite group which were obtained over the past decade. We also discuss generalizations of these results to some classes of infinite groups and their analogues for Lie algebras. Some open problems are discussed as well.
متن کامل“ Isoperimetry on Solvable Groups and Random Walks ”
We exhibit a large class of locally compact amenable groups having the same isoperimetric profile and the same probability of return for random walks. This class of groups contains closed subgroups of triangular matrices over local fields and their quotients, but some of them are not linear. Abstract : In this talk, we introduce a variant of the isoperimetric profile on groups that we compute o...
