Abstract

In a binary groupoid $(G, *)$, a Fibonacci sequence is a recurrent sequence defined by $f_1 = a, f_2 = b, \ldots, f_n = f_{n - 2} * f_{n - 1}$. A universal Fibonacci sequence (UFS) is a singly or doubly infinite sequence whose set of suffixes coincides precisely with the set of all Fibonacci sequences in the groupoid. This paper studies UFS-groupoids, i.e., groupoids that admit a universal Fibonacci sequence. It is shown that every nontrivial UFS-groupoid is at most countable, locally cyclic, and non-power-associative; that the right cancellation property and the right quasigroup property hold for all pairs of elements except possibly one and two, respectively; that no neutral element or zero element exists; and that there is at most one idempotent element. It is proved that any UFS-groupoid whose universal Fibonacci sequence is not doubly infinite strictly preperiodic is cyclic. It has also been proved that the class of UFS-groupoids is closed under taking subgroupoids and homomorphic images, but is not closed under finite direct products. The structure of subgroupoids of UFS-groupoids is described. A complete classification of UFS-groupoids is given in terms of the cardinality of $G$ and the periodicity of the universal Fibonacci sequences. Finite UFS-groupoids are described combinatorially via de Bruijn sequences. The number of distinct UFS-groupoids on a finite set is determined, and explicit constructions are provided for both finite and infinite cases across all periodicity classes, including embeddings of UFS-groupoids as subgroupoids into other UFS-groupoids and infinitely generated UFS-groupoids.

Word Measures on Wreath Products II

Every word $w$ in $F_r$, the free group of rank $r$, induces a probability measure (the $w$-measure) on every finite group $G$, by substitution of random $G$-elements in the letters. This measure is determined by its Fourier coefficients: the $w$-expectations $E_w[χ]$ of the irreducible characters of $G$. For every finite group $G$, every stable character $χ$ of $G\wr S_n$ (trace of a finitely generated $FI_G$-module), and every word $w\in F_r$, we approximate $E_w[χ]$ up to an error term of $O(n^{-π(w)})$, where $π(w)$ is the primitivity rank of $w$. This generalizes previous works by Puder, Hanany, Magee and the author. As an application we show that random Schreier graphs of representation-stable actions of $G\wr S_n$ are close-to-optimal expanders. The paper reveals a surprising relation between stable representation theory of wreath products and not-necessarily connected Stallings core graphs.

Robust quasi-isometric embeddings inapproximable by Anosov representations

Let $\mathbb{K}=\mathbb{R}$ or $\mathbb{C}$. For all but finitely many $m\in \mathbb{N}$, we exhibit the first examples of non-locally rigid, Zariski dense, robust quasi-isometric embeddings of hyperbolic groups in $\mathsf{SL}_m(\mathbb{K})$ which are not limits of Anosov representations. As a consequence, we show that higher rank analogues of Sullivan's structural stabilty theorem and of the density theorem for Kleinian groups fail for Anosov representations in $\mathsf{SL}_m(\mathbb{C}), m\geq 30$.

$\mathcal{C}$-Hereditarily conjugacy separable groups and wreath products

We provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the restricted wreath product $A\wr B$ to be $\mathcal{C}$-hereditarily conjugacy separable where $\mathcal{C}$ is an extension-closed pseudovariety of finite groups. Moreover, we prove that the Grigorchuk group is 2-hereditarily conjugacy separable. As an application, we demonstrate that the lamplighter groups and $\mathbb{Z} \wr \mathbb{Z}$ are hereditarily conjugacy separable (but not $p$-conjugacy separable for any prime $p$). This provides infinitely many new examples of solvable, non-polycyclic hereditarily conjugacy separable groups. Furthermore, we study wreath products of cyclic subgroup separable groups and the derived length of iterated wreath products of solvable groups with an abelian base group and, as an application, we give an explicit construction of non-polycyclic hereditarily conjugacy separable groups of arbitrary derived length as iterated wreath products of abelian groups.
