Conjugacy Classes of Solutions to Equations and Inequations over Hyperbolic Groups

چکیده
We study conjugacy classes of solutions to systems of equations and inequations over torsion-free hyperbolic groups, and describe an algorithm to recognize whether or not there are finitely many conjugacy classes of solutions to such a system. The class of immutable subgroups of hyperbolic groups is introduced, which is fundamental to the study of equations in this context. We apply our results to enumerate the immutable subgroups of a torsion-free hyperbolic group.

COMPUTING THE PRODUCTS OF CONJUGACY CLASSES FOR SPECIFIC FINITE GROUPS
Suppose $G$ is a finite group, $A$ and $B$ are conjugacy classes of $G$ and $eta(AB)$ denotes the number of conjugacy classes contained in $AB$. The set of all $eta(AB)$ such that $A, B$ run over conjugacy classes of $G$ is denoted by $eta(G)$.The aim of this paper is to compute $eta(G)$, $G in { D_{2n}, T_{4n}, U_{6n}, V_{8n}, SD_{8n}}$ or $G$ is a decomposable group of order $2pq$, a group of...
متن کاملThe Conjugacy Problem for Relatively Hyperbolic Groups
Solvability of the conjugacy problem for relatively hyperbolic groups was announced by Gromov [12]. Using the definition of Farb of a relatively hyperbolic group [9], we prove this assertion. We conclude that the conjugacy problem is solvable for the following two classes of groups: fundamental groups of complete, finite-volume, negatively curved manifolds, and finitely generated fully residual...
متن کاملOn equations in relatively hyperbolic groups
We investigate the problem of deciding the Diophantine theory (resp. the existential first order theory), of some torsion free relatively hyperbolic group (i.e. the problems of satisfiability of finite systems of equations (resp. of equations and inequations) with coefficients). We give a positive answer to the second problem when the parabolic subgroups are abelian, and to the first problem, m...
متن کاملGroups with Finitely Many Conjugacy Classes and Their Automorphisms
We combine classical methods of combinatorial group theory with the theory of small cancellations over relatively hyperbolic groups to construct finitely generated torsion-free groups that have only finitely many classes of conjugate elements. Moreover, we present several results concerning embeddings into such groups. As another application of these techniques, we prove that every countable gr...
متن کاملSome connections between powers of conjugacy classes and degrees of irreducible characters in solvable groups
Let $G$ be a finite group. We say that the derived covering number of $G$ is finite if and only if there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $C^n=G'$ for all non-central conjugacy classes $C$ of $G$. In this paper we characterize solvable groups $G$ in which the derived covering number is finite.
