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...
متن کاملVolumes of Discrete Groups and Topological Complexity of Homology Spheres
Can one ascribe a “size” to a discrete group? By that we mean a real-valued invariant, μ(Γ) satisfying the following condition: for any subgroup ∆ < Γ of finite index, μ(∆) = (Γ : ∆)μ(Γ). The importance of such an invariant for the structure of Γ is clear from the following observation: if μ(Γ) > 0 and ∆1,∆2 are two isomorphic subgroups of Γ of finite index, then (Γ : ∆1) = (Γ : ∆2). Some ratio...
متن کاملPro-p groups and towers of rational homology spheres
In the preceding paper, Calegari and Dunfield exhibit a sequence of hyperbolic 3-manifolds which have increasing injectivity radius, and which, subject to some conjectures in number theory, are rational homology spheres. We prove unconditionally that these manifolds are rational homology spheres, and give a sufficient condition for a tower of hyperbolic 3-manifolds to have first Betti number 0 ...

متن کاملFree actions of nite groups on rational homology 3 - spheres
The purpose of this note is to prove the following: Theorem 1.1 Let G be a nite group. Then there is a rational homology S 3 on which G acts freely. That any nite group acts freely on some closed 3-manifold is easy to arrange: There are many examples of closed 3-manifolds whose fundamental groups surject a free group of rank two (for example, by taking a connected sum of S 1 S 2 's) and by pass...
