### Groups of type $FP$ via graphical small cancellation

• Mathematics
• 2020
We construct an uncountable family of groups of type $FP$. In contrast to every previous construction of non-finitely presented groups of type $FP$ we do not use Morse theory on cubical complexes;

### Uncountably many groups of type FP

We construct uncountably many discrete groups of type FP; in particular we construct groups of type FP that do not embed in any finitely presented group. We compute the ordinary, ℓ2 , and compactly

### Constructing groups of type $FP_2$ over fields but not over the integers

We construct examples of groups that are FP2(Q) and FP2(Z/pZ) for all primes p but not of type FP2(Z).

We show that for every positive integer n there exists a simple group that is of type $$\mathrm {F}_{n-1}$$Fn-1 but not of type $$\mathrm {F}_n$$Fn. For $$n\ge 3$$n≥3 these groups are the first known

### Profinite rigidity of fibring

. We introduce the classes of TAP groups, in which various types of algebraic ﬁbring are detected by the non-vanishing of twisted Alexander polynomials. We show that ﬁnitely presented LERF groups lie

### On the virtual and residual properties of a generalization of Bestvina-Brady groups

• Mathematics
• 2022
Previously one of us introduced a family of groups G ML ( S ), parametrized by a ﬁnite ﬂag complex L , a regular covering M of L , and a set S of integers. We give conjectural descriptions of when G

The main theorem of this paper states that a finitely generated group can be embedded in a finitely presented group if and only if it has a recursively enumerable set of defining relations. It

This advanced textbook introduces students to cohomology theory. No knowledge of homological algebra is assumed beyond what is normally taught in a first course in algebraic topology.

By a partial endomorphism of a group G we mean a homomorphic mapping μ of a subgroup A of G onto a subgroup B of G. If μ is denned on the whole of G then it is called a total endomorphism. We call a

1.1 Finitely presented soluble groups have been investigated by several authors. Roughly speaking, their results deal with two aspects: with the subgroup structure of finitely presented soluble

A rink-type roller skate is provided with a plastic sole plate. To mount a toe stop on the skate, a novel bushing is embedded in the sole plate. The bushing has relatively small diameter ends and a

### Morse theory and finiteness properties of groups

Abstract. We examine the finiteness properties of certain subgroups of “right angled” Artin groups. In particular, we find an example of a group that is of type FP(Z) but is not finitely presented.
