چکیده
We give an exposition of Delzant’s ideas extending the notion of Scott complexity of finitely generated groups to surjective homomorphisms from finitely presented groups.

Delzant’s T-invariant and One-relator Groups
We prove that for " most " one-relator groups Delzant's T-invariant (which measures the smallest size of a finite presentation for a group) is comparable in magnitude with the length of the defining relator. The proof relies on our previous results regarding algebraic rigidity of generic one-relator groups and on the methods of algorithmic probability involving Kolmogorov-Chaitin complexity.

We prove that for " random " one-relator groups the Delzant T-invariant (which measures the smallest size of a finite presentation of a group) is comparable in magnitude with the length of the defining relator. The proof relies on our previous results regarding isomorphism rigidity of generic one-relator groups and on the methods of the theory of Kolmogorov-Chaitin complexity.
متن کاملThe Effects of Task Variation on the Accuracy and Complexity of Iranian EFL Learners’ Oral Performance
Task variation is an integrative method aiming at the importance of learner-to-learner interactions in a wide range of learning contexts and fostering authentic use of language and meaningful communication. This study investigated the impact of task variation on the accuracy and complexity of Iranian EFL learners’ oral speech. In so doing, 80 intermediate EFL learners, majoring English at the I...
متن کاملInput-induced Variation in EFL Learners’ Oral Production in Terms of Complexity, Accuracy, and Fluency
Researchers have extensively studied phenomena that affect a second language learner’s oral production while there is scant evidence about input-related factors. Accordingly, the present study sought to investigate how variation in oral production is caused by the input they receive from different course materials. To this end, the study included a micro-evaluation study of three course materia...
متن کاملDelzant-type classification of near-symplectic toric 4-manifolds
Delzant’s theorem for symplectic toric manifolds says that there is a one-to-one correspondence between certain convex polytopes in Rn and symplectic toric 2n-manifolds, realized by the image of the moment map. I review proofs of this theorem and the convexity theorem of Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg on which it relies. Then, I describe Honda’s results on the local structure of near-symplectic 4-m...
