We give criteria for determining the approximate length of elements in any given cyclic subgroup of the Thompson-Stein groups F (n1, ..., nk) such that n1 − 1|ni − 1 ∀i ∈ {1, ..., k} in terms of the number of leaves in the minimal tree-pair diagram representative. This leads directly to the result that cyclic subgroups are quasi-isometrically embedded in the ThompsonStein groups. This result al...

We characterize convex cocompact subgroups of mapping class groups that arise as subgroups of specially embedded right-angled Artin groups. That is, if the right-angled Artin group G < Mod(S) satisfies certain conditions that imply G is quasi-isometrically embedded in Mod(S), then a purely pseudo-Anosov subgroup H < G is convex cocompact in Mod(S) if and only if it is combinatorially quasiconve...

The authors use techniques and results from the theory of generalized metric spaces to give a new, short proof that every connected, linearly ordered topological space that is a cancellative topological semigroup is metrizable, and hence embeddable in R. They also prove that every separable, linearly ordered topological space that is a cancellative topological semigroup is metrizable, so embedd...

In this article we introduce the notion of n-capable groups. It is shown that every group G admits a uniquely determined subgroup (〖Z^n)〗^* (G) which is a characteristic subgroup and lies in the n-centre subgroup of the group G. This is the smallest subgroup of G whose factor group is n-capable. Moreover, some properties of n-central extension will be studied.

In this paper, we extend the construction of a fuzzy subgroup generated by a fuzzy subset to $L$-setting. This construction is illustrated by an example. We also prove that for an $L$-subset of a group, the subgroup generated by its level subset is the level subset of the subgroup generated by that $L$-subset provided the given $L$-subset possesses sup-property.

 ‎Let $tilde{F}=(Q,S,tilde{R},Z,omega,tilde{delta},‎ F_1,F_2)$‎ ‎be a general fuzzy automaton and the set of its states be a group.‎ ‎The aim of this paper is the study of applications of a group in a‎ ‎general fuzzy automaton‎. ‎For this purpose‎, ‎we define the concepts‎ ‎of fuzzy normal kernel of a general fuzzy automaton‎, ‎fuzzy kernel‎ ‎of a general fuzzy automaton‎, ‎adjustable‎, ‎multip...

A subgroup $H$ is said to be $nc$-supplemented in a group $G$ if there exists a subgroup $Kleq G$ such that $HKlhd G$ and $Hcap K$ is contained in $H_{G}$, the core of $H$ in $G$. We characterize the supersolubility of finite groups $G$ with that every maximal subgroup of the Sylow subgroups is $nc$-supplemented in $G$.

‎Let $tau$ be a subgroup functor and $H$ a $p$-subgroup of a finite group $G$‎. ‎Let $bar{G}=G/H_{G}$ and $bar{H}=H/H_{G}$‎. ‎We say that $H$ is $Phi$-$tau$-quasinormal in $G$ if for some $S$-quasinormal subgroup $bar{T}$ of $bar{G}$ and some $tau$-subgroup $bar{S}$ of $bar{G}$ contained in $bar{H}$‎, ‎$bar{H}bar{T}$ is $S$-quasinormal in $bar{G}$ and $bar{H}capbar{T}leq bar{S}Phi(bar{H})$‎. ‎I...
