Abstract:Let V be a pseudovariety of finite groups such that free groups are residually V, and let ϕ : F (A) → F (B) be an injective morphism between finitely generated free groups. We characterize the situations where the continuous extensionφ of ϕ between the pro-V completions of F (A) and F (B) is also injective. In particular, if V is extension-closed, this is the case if and only if ϕ(F (A)) and its pro-V closure in F (B) have the same rank. We examine a number of situations where the injectivity ofφ can be assert… Show more
“…We provide a proof for the sake of completeness. We chose to rely on [22,25,26], but let us mention that results from [13] could be used as well. Alternatively, one could adapt the proof of [7, Proposition 4.6.5], which can be partly traced back to [1, Lemma 4.2].…”
Section: Schützenberger Groups Of Relatively Invertible Substitutionsmentioning
Our main goal is to study the freeness of Schützenberger groups defined by primitive substitutions. Our findings include a simple freeness test for these groups, which is applied to exhibit a primitive invertible substitution with corresponding non-free Schützenberger group. This constitutes a counterexample to a result of Almeida dating back to 2005. We also give some early results concerning relative freeness of Schützenberger groups, a question which remains largely unexplored.

“…Proof. Let us fix i from 1 to n. The polynomials x i , f i , f (2) i , ..., f (n) i are algebraically dependent over F q . This means that…”

Section: Extendable Endomorphisms Of Linear Groups and Some Open Prob...mentioning
We prove that every mapping torus of any free group endomorphism is residually finite. We show how to use a not yet published result of E. Hrushovski to extend our result to arbitrary linear groups. The proof uses algebraic self-maps of affine spaces over finite fields. In particular, we prove that when such a map is dominant, the set of its fixed closed scheme points is Zariski dense in the affine space.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
