چکیده

We study two–generated subgroups x f , gy Homeo pIq such that x f 2, g2y is isomorphic to Thompson’s group F. We show that this class contains examples with nonabelian free subgroups, examples which do not admit faithful actions by C diffeomorphisms on 1–manifolds, and examples which are not finitely presented. We thus answer questions due to M. Brin.

Two–chains and square roots of Thompson’s group F

We study two–generated subgroups x f , gy Homeo pIq such that x f 2, g2y is isomorphic to Thompson’s group F, and such that the supports of f and g form a chain of two intervals. We show that this class contains uncountably many isomorphism types. These include examples with nonabelian free subgroups, examples which do not admit faithful actions by C2 diffeomorphisms on 1–manifolds, examples ...

The Simultaneous Conjugacy Problem in Thompson’s Group F

Guba and Sapir asked, in their joint paper [3], if the simultaneous conjugacy problem was solvable in Diagram Groups or, at least, for Thompson’s group F . We give an elementary proof for the solution of the latter question. This relies purely on the description of F as the group of piecewise linear orientationpreserving homeomorphisms of the unit interval with dyadic breakpoints and slopes tha...

Conjugacy in Thompson’s groups

We give a unified solution the conjugacy problem in Thompson’s groups F , V , and T using strand diagrams, a modification of tree diagrams. We then analyze the complexity of the resulting algorithms. Thompson’s group F is the group of all piecewise-linear homeomorphisms of the unit interval satisfying the following conditions: 1. Every slope is a power of two, and 2. Every breakpoint has dyadic...

The Simultaneous Conjugacy Problem in Groups of Piecewise Linear Functions

Guba and Sapir asked, in their joint paper [8], if the simultaneous conjugacy problem was solvable in Diagram Groups or, at least, for Thompson’s group F . We give an elementary proof for the solution of the latter question. This relies purely on the description of F as the group of piecewise linear orientation-preserving homeomorphisms of the unit. The techniques we develop allow us also to so...

The Conjugacy Problem in Extensions of Thompson’s Group F

We solve the twisted conjugacy problem on Thompson’s group F . We also exhibit orbit undecidable subgroups of Aut(F ), and give a proof that Aut(F ) and Aut+(F ) are orbit decidable provided a certain conjecture on Thompson’s group T is true. By using general criteria introduced by Bogopolski, Martino and Ventura in [5], we construct a family of free extensions of F where the conjugacy problem ...
