Largeness and Sq-Universality of cyclically Presented Groups
Largeness, SQ-universality, and the existence of free subgroups of rank 2 are measures of the complexity of a finitely presented group. We obtain conditions under which a cyclically presented group possesses one or more of these properties. We apply our results to a class of groups introduced by Prishchepov which contain, amongst others, the various generalizations of Fibonacci groups introduce...
متن کاملDistortion of Wreath Products in Some Finitely Presented Groups
Wreath products such as Z ≀ Z are not finitely-presentable yet can occur as subgroups of finitely presented groups. Here we compute the distortion of Z ≀ Z as a subgroup of Thompson’s group F and as a subgroup of Baumslag’s metabelian group G. We find that Z ≀ Z is undistorted in F but is at least exponentially distorted in G.
متن کاملFinitely Presented Residually Free Groups
We establish a general criterion for the finite presentability of subdirect products of groups and use this to characterize finitely presented residually free groups. We prove that, for all n ∈ N, a residually free group is of type FPn if and only if it is of type Fn. New families of subdirect products of free groups are constructed, including the first examples of finitely presented subgroups ...
متن کاملConstructing Matrix Representations of Finitely Presented Groups
The Todd-Coxeter coset enumeration algorithm is one of the most powerful tools of computational group theory. It may be viewed as a means of constructing permutation representations of nitely presented groups. In this paper we present an analogous algorithm for directly constructing matrix representations over many elds. In fact the algorithm is more general than this, and can be used to constr...
متن کاملDecompositions of finitely generated and finitely presented groups
In this paper we discuss the splitting or decomposing of finitely generated groups into free products, free products with amalgamation or HNN extensions and we discuss the JSJ decomposition of finitely presented groups.
