Subgroup Properties of Fully Residually Free Groups
We prove that fully residually free groups have the Howson property, that is the intersection of any two finitely generated subgroups in such a group is again finitely generated. We also establish some commensurability properties for finitely generated fully residually free groups which are similar to those of free groups. Finally we prove that for a finitely generated fully residually free gro...
متن کاملCommensurability and Qi Classification of Free Products of Finitely Generated Abelian Groups
We give the commensurability classifications of free products of finitely many finitely generated abelian groups. We show this coincides with the quasi-isometry classification and prove that this class of groups is quasiisometrically rigid. The following gives the complete commensurability and quasi-isometry classification of free products of finitely generated abelian groups. The quasi-isometr...
متن کاملTopological Full Groups of Minimal Subshifts and Just-infinite Groups
In [24], confirming a conjecture of Hjorth-Kechris [16], Thomas-Velickovic proved that the isomorphism relation on the space Gfg of finitely generated groups is a universal countable Borel equivalence relation. (Here Gfg denotes the Polish space of finitely generated groups introduced by Grigorchuk [12]; i.e. the elements of Gfg are the isomorphism types of marked groups (G, c ), where G is a f...
متن کاملIncommensurability Criteria for Kleinian Groups
The purpose of this note is to present a criterion for an infinite collection of distinct hyperbolic 3-manifolds to be commensurably infinite. (Here, a collection of hyperbolic 3-manifolds is commensurably infinite if it contains representatives from infinitely many commensurability classes.) Namely, such a collection M is commensurably infinite if there is a uniform upper bound on the volumes ...
متن کاملIsomorphism of finitely generated solvable groups is weakly universal
We show that the isomorphism relation for finitely generated solvable groups of class 3 is a weakly universal countable Borel equivalence relation. This improves on previous results. The proof uses a modification of a construction of Neumann and Neumann. Elementary arguments show that isomorphism of finitely generated metabelian or nilpotent groups can not achieve this Borel complexity. In this...
