Abstract

We deal with solutions of classical linear equations ax=b and ya=b, applying a particular lattice valued fuzzy technique. Our framework is a structure with a binary operation (a groupoid), equipped with a fuzzy equality. We call it a fuzzy quasigroup if the above equations have unique solutons with respect to the fuzzy equality. We prove that a fuzzy quasigroup can equivalently be characterized as a structure whose quotients of cut-substructures with respect to cuts of the fuzzy equality are classical quasigroups. Analyzing two approaches to quasigroups in a fuzzy framework, we prove their equivalence. In addition, we prove that a fuzzy loop (quasigroup with a unit element) which is a fuzzy semigroup is a fuzzy group and vice versa. Finally, using properties of these fuzzy quasigroups, we give answers to existence of solutions of the mentioned linear equations with respect to a fuzzy equality, and we describe solving procedures.

Subindices and subfactors of $\mathbb{Z}_n$ and $k$-index stability of finite groups

We study subindices, subfactors, and index stability in the cyclic group $\mathbb{Z}_n$. We prove several theorems that not only confirm a conjecture and resolve some open problems about index stability of such groups, but also provide basic tools for the characterization of finite $k$-index stable groups. As a consequence, we completely characterize all 2-element index stable subsets of $\mathbb{Z}_n$, obtain an exact closed formula for their density, and determine all $n$ for which every 2-subset is index unstable. Finally, we present some problems and a research project extending the study to 3-subsets and general $k$-subsets.

Virtually generating graphs of pro-$p$ groups

We study the virtually generating graph of pro-$p$ groups. We show that various classes of pro-$p$ groups have connected virtually generating graph and we bound its diameter in these cases; e.g.\ compact subgroups of analytic groups over local fields and the Nottingham group.

Surface subgroups of Baumslag doubles along short words

If $U$ is a minimal, diskbusting, finite list of words in a free group $F_n$ of rank $n$ such that the sum of the lengths of words in $U$ is at most $2n+4$, we prove that the natural presentation complex of the Baumslag double of $F_n$ along $U$ virtually contains a $π_1$-injective embedded closed hyperbolic surface. This verifies the Tiling Conjecture of Kim and Wilton for this type of lists of words, and in particular, implies that the corresponding Baumslag double contains a hyperbolic surface subgroup.
