Dihedral Groups as Epimorphic Images of Some Fibonacci Groups

On the Fibonacci length of powers of dihedral groups

For a finitely generated group G = 〈A〉, where A = {a1, a2, . . . , an}, the sequence xi = ai, 1 ≤ i ≤ n, xi+n = ∏n j=1 xi+j−1, i ≥ 1, is called the Fibonacci orbit of G with respect to the generating set A, denoted FA(G). If FA(G) is periodic we call the length of the period of the sequence the Fibonacci length of G with respect to A, written LENA(G). In this paper we examine the Fibonacci leng...

Calculations of Dihedral Groups Using Circular Indexation

‎In this work‎, ‎a regular polygon with $n$ sides is described by a periodic (circular) sequence with period $n$‎. ‎Each element of the sequence represents a vertex of the polygon‎. ‎Each symmetry of the polygon is the rotation of the polygon around the center-point and/or flipping around a symmetry axis‎. ‎Here each symmetry is considered as a system that takes an input circular sequence and g...

Limits of Dihedral Groups

We give a characterization of limits of dihedral groups in the space of finitely generated marked groups. We also describe the topological closure of dihedral groups in the space of marked groups on a fixed number of generators.

Sumsets in dihedral groups

Let Dn be the dihedral group of order 2n. For all integers r, s such that 1 ≤ r, s ≤ 2n, we give an explicit upper bound for the minimal size μDn (r, s) = min |A · B| of sumsets (product sets) A · B, where A and B range over all subsets of Dn of cardinality r and s respectively. It is shown by construction that μDn (r, s) is bounded above by the known value of μG (r, s), where G is any abelian ...
