Tadpole Labelled Oriented Graph Groups and Cyclically Presented Groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We study a class of Labelled Oriented Graph (LOG) group where the underlying graph is a tadpole graph. We show that such a group is the natural HNN extension of a cyclically presented group and investigate the relationship between the LOG group and the cyclically presented group. We relate the second homotopy groups of their presentations and show that hyperbolicity of the cyclically presented group implies solvability of the conjugacy problem for the LOG group. In the case where the label on the tail of the LOG spells a positive word in the vertices in the circuit we show that the LOGs and groups coincide with those considered by Szczepański and Vesnin. We obtain new presentations for these cyclically presented groups and show that the groups of Fibonacci type introduced by Johnson and Mawdesley are of this form. These groups generalize the Fibonacci groups and the Sieradski groups and have been studied by various authors. We continue these investigations, using small cancellation and curvature methods to obtain results on hyperbolicity, automaticity, SQ-universality, and solvability of decision problems.

Groups of Fibonacci Type Revisited
This article concerns a class of groups of Fibonacci type introduced by Johnson and Mawdesley that includes Conway’s Fibonacci groups, the Sieradski groups, and the Gilbert-Howie groups. This class of groups provides an interesting focus for developing the theory of cyclically presented groups and, following questions by Bardakov and Vesnin and by Cavicchioli, Hegenbarth, and Repovš, they have ...
متن کاملOn the second order first zagreb index
Inspired by the chemical applications of higher-order connectivity index (or Randic index), we consider here the higher-order first Zagreb index of a molecular graph. In this paper, we study the linear regression analysis of the second order first Zagreb index with the entropy and acentric factor of an octane isomers. The linear model, based on the second order first Zag...
متن کاملCyclically presented groups in which the relators involve at most three generators
Cyclically presented groups Gn(w) in which w involves at most three generators are studied. We classify when such groups have infinite abelianizations and apply this result to the groups Gn(x1x1+kx 1+`). As a further corollary we give sufficient conditions for the natural HNN extension of Gn(w) to be a high-dimensional knot group. By continuing Cavicchioli, Repovš, and Spaggiari’s investigation...
متن کاملAddendum to “random Walk on Random Groups” by M. Gromov
Written at the request of GAFA’s Editorial Board, with the goal of explicating some aspects of M. Gromov’s paper [2]. Section 1 recalls the construction of the random group, while section 2 contains a proof that the random group has property (T) based on the ideas from the preprint. The appendix defines CAT(0) spaces and works out in detail some geometric propositions from the preprint used in ...
