Conjugacy growth series for wreath product finitary symmetric groups
نویسنده
چکیده
In recent work, Bacher and de la Harpe define and study conjugacy growth series for finitary permutation groups. In two subsequent papers, Cotron, Dicks, and Fleming study the congruence properties of some of these series. We define a new family of conjugacy growth series for the finitary alternating wreath product that are related to sums of modular forms of integer and half-integral weights, the so-calledmixed weight modular forms. The previous works motivate the study of congruences for these series. We prove that congruences exist modulo powers of all primes p ≥ 5. Furthermore, we lay out a method for studying congruence properties for sums of mixed weight modular forms in general.

Conjugacy Growth Series of Some Infinitely Generated Groups
It is observed that the conjugacy growth series of the infinite finitary symmetric group with respect to the generating set of transpositions is the generating series of the partition function. Other conjugacy growth series are computed, for other generating sets, for restricted permutational wreath products of finite groups by the finitary symmetric group, and for alternating groups. Similar m...
متن کاملCharacter theory of infinite wreath products
The representation theory of infinite wreath product groups is developed by means of the relationship between their group algebras and conjugacy classes with those of the infinite symmetric group. Further, since these groups are inductive limits of finite groups, their finite characters can be classified as limits of normalized irreducible characters of prelimit finite groups. This identificati...
متن کاملThe Geometry of Twisted Conjugacy Classes in Wreath Products
We give a geometric proof based on recent work of Eskin, Fisher and Whyte that the lamplighter group Ln has infinitely many twisted conjugacy classes for any automorphism φ only when n is divisible by 2 or 3, originally proved by Gonçalves and Wong. We determine when the wreath product G o Z has this same property for several classes of finite groups G, including symmetric groups and some nilpo...
متن کاملThe conjugacy problem in free solvable groups and wreath product of abelian groups is in TC$^0$
We show that the conjugacy problem in a wreath product A ≀B is uniformTC -Turing-reducible to the conjugacy problem in the factors A and B and the power problem in B. Moreover, if B is torsion free, the power problem for B can be replaced by the slightly weaker cyclic submonoid membership problem for B, which itself turns out to be uniform-TC-Turing-reducible to conjugacy problem in A ≀B if A i...
متن کاملConjugacy growth series and languages in groups
In this paper we introduce the geodesic conjugacy language and geodesic conjugacy growth series for a finitely generated group. We study the effects of various group constructions on rationality of both the geodesic conjugacy growth series and spherical conjugacy growth series, as well as on regularity of the geodesic conjugacy language and spherical conjugacy language. In particular, we show t...
