We prove that Thompson's group F is not minimally almost convex with respect to any generating set which is a subset of the standard infinite generating set for F and which contains x_1. We use this to show that F is not almost convex with respect to any generating set which is a subset of the standard infinite generating set.

We give the first examples of groups which admit a tame combing with linear radial tameness function with respect to any choice of finite presentation, but which are not minimally almost convex on a standard generating set. Namely, we explicitly construct such combings for Thompson's group F and the Baumslag-Solitar groups BS(1, p) with p \ge 3. In order to make this construction for Thompson's group F, we significantly expand the understanding of the Cayley complex of this group with respect to the standard finite presentation. In particular we describe a quasigeodesic set of normal forms and…
We show that Thompson's group F does not satisfy Cannon's almost convexity condition AC(n) for any integer n in the standard finite two generator presentation. To accomplish this, we construct a family of pairs of elements at distance n from the identity and distance 2 from each other, which are not connected by a path lying inside the n-ball of length less than k for increasingly large k. Our techniques rely upon Fordham's method for calculating the length of a word in F and upon an analysis of the generators' geometric actions on the tree pair diagrams representing elements of F.
Golan and Sapir \cite{MR3978542} proved that the Thompson's groups $F$, $T$ and $V$ have linear divergence. In the current paper, we focus on the divergence properties of several generalisation of the Thompson's groups, we first consider the Brown-Thompson's groups $F_n$, $T_n$ and $V_n$ and found out that these groups also have linear divergence function. We then consider the braided Thompson's groups $BF$ and $\widehat{BF}$ and $\widehat{BV}$ together with the result in \cite{Kodama:2020to} we conclude that theses groups have linear divergence.
We prove that R. Thompson groups F, T, V have linear divergence functions.
In this article we prove that Thompson's group does not belong to any algebraic variety.
We construct a braided version of Thompson's group V.
We show that Thompson's group F occurs with great frequency in the group of PL homeomorphisms of the unit interval.
We prove the orderability of the Witzel-Zaremsky-Thompson group for a direct system of orderable groups under a certain compatibility assumption.
The purpose of this note is to prove that Richard Thompson's group F and variants of it studied by Ken Brown are not Kahler groups.
We construct a finitely presented group with coNP-complete word problem, and a finitely generated simple group with coNP-complete word problem. These groups are represented as Thompson groups, hence as partial transformation groups of strings. The proof provides a simulation of combinational circuits by elements of the Thompson-Higman group G_{3,1}.
In a previous paper, we defined a higher dimensional analog of Thompson's group V, and proved that it is simple, infinite, finitely generated, and not isomorphic to any of the known Thompson groups. There are other Thompson groups that are infinite, simple and finitely presented. Here we show that the new group is also finitely presented by calculating an explicit finite presentation.
The goal of this paper is to construct quasi-isometrically embedded subgroups of Thompson's group $F$ which are isomorphic to $\fz^n$ for all $n$. A result estimating the norm of an element of Thompson's group is found. As a corollary, Thompson's group is seen to be an example of a finitely presented group which has an infinite-dimensional asymptotic cone.
We prove that the Dehn function (that is, the smallest isoperimetric function) of the Richard Thompson's group F is quadratic.

In this paper, we construct embeddings of right-angled Artin groups into higher dimensional Thompson groups. In particular, we embed every right-angled Artin groups into n-dimensional Thompson group, where n is the number of complementary edges in the defining graph.

In this note, we show that the sets of all stable commutator lengths in the braided Ptolemy-Thompson groups are equal to non-negative rational numbers.
A Note on the Metric of Thompson's group V
本文改进了Birget于2004年对汤普森群V字度量的界，结果与已知的F和T群的界一致。
We show that the baker's map is a product of transpositions (particularly pleasant involutions), and conclude from this that an existing very short proof of the simplicity of Thompson's group V applies with equal brevity to the higher dimensional Thompson groups nV.
Braided Thompson's groups are finitely presented groups introduced by Brin and Dehornoy which contain the ordinary braid groups $B_n$, the finitary braid group $B_{\infty}$ and Thompson's group $F$ as subgroups. We describe some of the metric properties of braided Thompson's groups and give upper and lower bounds for word length in terms of the number of strands and the number of crossings in the diagrams used to represent elements.
We improve some known estimates for the density of the Cayley graph of Thompson's group F in standard generators.
We construct braided versions $sV_{br}$ of the Brin-Thompson groups $sV$ and prove that they are of type $F_\infty$. The proof involves showing that the matching complexes of colored arcs on surfaces are highly connected.
A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G= \langle s^{g(s)} | s \in S\rangle$ for every choice of $g(s) \in G,s \in S$. We say that a group $G$ is invariably generated if such $S$ exists, or equivalently if $S=G$ invariably generates $G$. In this paper, we study invariable generation of Thompson groups. We show that Thompson group $F$ is invariable generated by a finite set, whereas Thompson groups $T$ and $V$ are not invariable generated.
We study centralisers of finite order automorphisms of generalisations of Thompson's group F and conjugacy classes of finite subgroups in finite extensions of these groups. In particular, we show that centralisers of finite automorphisms in these generalised Thompson groups either admit a finite type classifying space or are not finitely generated. As an application we deduce results about the Bredon type of such finite extensions.
The Thompson group V is a subgroup of the homeomorphism group of the Cantor set. Brin defined higher dimensional Thompson groups nV as generalizations of V. We prove that nV has Serre's property FA, for every n. This is a generalization of the corresponding result of Farley, who studied V.
The purpose of this note is to prove a lower bound on the Folner function for Thompson's groups F.
We show that Thompson's group $F$ has a topological action on a compact metric space that is proximal and has no fixed points.
We prove that every finitely-generated right-angled Artin group can be embedded into some Brin-Thompson group $nV$. It follows that many other groups can be embedded into some $nV$ (e.g., any finite extension of any of Haglund and Wise's special groups), and that various decision problems involving subgroups of $nV$ are unsolvable.
A Note on the FC-Center of Thompson's Group $F$

Recently Akhmedov introduced a property of finitely generated groups called the Traveller Salesman Property (TSP). It was shown by Thurston that TSP implies non-amenability. Akhmedov conjectured that R. Thompson's group $F$ has TSP. The aim of this article is to disprove this conjecture.
We give a direct proof that all Higman-Thompson groups of the form $G_{k,1}$ (for $k \ge 2$) are embedded in one another, which is a recent result of N. Matte Bon. This extends the embeddings given by Higman in 1974.
We show that Brin's generalisations $2V$ and $3V$ of the Thompson-Higman group $V$ are of type $FP_\infty$. Our methods also give a new proof that both groups are finitely presented.
Matthew Brin and Patrick Dehornoy independently discovered a braided version BV of Thompson's group V. In this paper, we discuss some properties of BV that might make the group interesting for group based cryptography. In particular, we show that BV does not admit a non-trivial linear representation.
Let F be the Thompson's group. We study the structure of F-limit groups. Consider a sequence of groups marked by three elements, each isomorphic to F. Assume that the this sequence is convergent in the space of marked groups. We prove that no HNN-extension of F over a cyclic subgroup occurs as an F-limit group of such a sequence.
In this paper we construct a cellular complex which is an infinite analogue to Stasheff's associahedra. We prove that it is contractible and state that its (combinatorial) automorphism group is isomorphic to a semi-direct product of R.J. Thompson's group $T$ with $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$.
We show that the free group of rank 2 is a limit of 2-markings of Thompson's group F in the space of all 2-marked groups. More specifically, we find a sequence of generating pairs for F so that as one goes out the sequence, the length of the shortest relation satisfied by the generating pair goes to infinity.

Pure infinitely braided Thompson groups

The main result of this article is that any braided (resp. annular, planar) diagram group $D$ splits as a short exact sequence $1 \to R \to D \to S \to 1$ where $R$ is a subgroup of some right-angled Artin group and $S$ a subgroup of Thompson's group $V$ (resp. $T$, $F$). As an application, we show that several braided diagram groups embeds into Thompson's group $V$, including Higman's groups $V_{n,r}$, groups of quasi-automorphisms $QV_{n,r,p}$, and generalised Houghton's groups $H_{n,p}$.
We determine exactly which graph products, also known as Right Angled Artin Groups, embed into Richard Thompson's group $V$. It was shown by Bleak and Salazar-Diaz that $\mathbb{Z}^2 * \mathbb{Z}$ was an obstruction. We show that this is the only obstruction. This is shown by proving a graph theory result giving an alternate description of simple graphs without an appropriate induced subgraph.
In his papers [2], [3] Brin introduced the higher dimensional Thompson groups nV which are generalizations to the Thompson's group V of self-homeomorphisms of the Cantor set and found a finite set of generators and relations in the case n = 2. We show how to generalize his construction to obtain a finite presentation for every positive integer n. As a corollary, we obtain another proof that the groups nV are simple (first proved by Brin in [4]).
We describe pure braided versions of Thompson's group F. These groups, $BF$ and $\hat{BF}$, are subgroups of the braided versions of Thompson's group V, introduced by Brin and Dehornoy. Unlike V, elements of F are order-preserving self-maps of the interval and we use pure braids together with elements of F thus preserving order. We define these groups and give normal forms for elements and describe infinite and finite presentations of these groups.
V.S.Guba had proved that the R.Thompson group $T$ satisfies polynomial isoperimetric inequality and $Φ_T(n)\preceq n^7$, where $Φ_T$ is the Dehn function of group $T$. In this paper, we show that $Φ_T(n)\preceq n^5$.
Thompson's group $V$ has a rich variety of subgroups, containing all finite groups, all finitely generated free groups and all finitely generated abelian groups, the finitary permutation group of a countable set, as well as many wreath products and other families of groups. Here, we describe some obstructions for a given group to be a subgroup of $V$.
This paper studies when a pair of elements in F are the images of the standard generators of F under a self monomorphism.
We show that the abstract commensurator of Thompson's group F is composed of four building blocks: two isomorphism types of simple groups, the multiplicative group of the positive rationals and a cyclic group of order two. The main result establishes the simplicity of a certain group of piecewise linear homeomorphisms of the real line.
A slight modification of the definition of the Thompson-Higman groups G_k1 and F_k1 leads to inverse monoids that map onto G_k1 (respectively F_k1), and that have interesting properties: they are finitely generated, and residually finite. These inverse monoids are closely related to the suffix expansion of G_k1 (respectively F_k1).
We describe the results of some computational explorations in Thompson's group F. We describe experiments to estimate the cogrowth of F with respect to its standard finite generating set, designed to address the subtle and difficult question whether or not Thompson's group is amenable. We also describe experiments to estimate the exponential growth rate of F and the rate of escape of symmetric random walks with respect to the standard generating set.
We give a unified solution to the conjugacy problem for Thompson's groups F, T, and V. The solution uses strand diagrams, which are similar in spirit to braids and generalize tree-pair diagrams for elements of Thompson's groups. Strand diagrams are closely related to piecewise-linear functions for elements of Thompson's groups, and we use this correspondence to investigate the dynamics of elements of F. Though many of the results in this paper are known, our approach is new, and it yields elegant proofs of several old results.
Let $G$ be a finite group, $N(G)$ be the set of conjugacy classes of the group $G$. In the present paper it is proved $G\simeq L$ if $N(G)=N(L)$, where $G$ is a finite group with trivial center and $L$ is a finite simple group.
Higman-Thompson groups and profinite properties of right-angled Coxeter groups

The goal is to extend a non-standard amenability test for groups, based on random walks and superharmonic functions, to group actions on sets, and to apply it to Thompson's group F using certain properties of extensive amenability. While no conclusive answer regarding the amenability of F is given, the approach is helpful in developing a new potentially useful criterion and testing it on a significant subclass of superharmonic functions.
In this paper we generalize techniques of Belk-Matucci to solve the conjugacy problem for every Thompson-like group $V_n(H)$, where $n \geq 2$ and $H$ is a subgroup of the symmetric group on $n$ elements. We use this to prove that, if $n \neq m$, $V_n(H)$ is not isomorphic to $V_m(G)$ for any $H,G$.
We construct a family of infinite simple groups that we call \emph{twisted Brin-Thompson groups}, generalizing Brin's higher-dimensional Thompson groups $sV$ ($s\in\mathbb{N}$). We use twisted Brin-Thompson groups to prove a variety of results regarding simple groups. For example, we prove that every finitely generated group embeds quasi-isometrically as a subgroup of a two-generated simple group, strengthening a result of Bridson. We also produce examples of simple groups that contain every $sV$ and hence every right-angled Artin group, including examples of type $\textrm{F}_\infty$ and a fam…
In this paper we consider the $T$- and $V$- versions, $T_τ$ and $V_τ$ , of the irrational slope Thompson group $F_τ$ considered in [3]. We give infinite presentations for these groups and show how they can be represented by tree-pair diagrams similar to those for $T$ and $V$. We also show that $T_τ$ and $V_τ$ have index-2 normal subgroups, unlike their original Thompson counterparts $T$ and $V$. These index-2 subgroups are shown to be simple.
For a finite group $G$ denote by $N(G)$ the set of conjugesy class sizes of $G$. We show that every finite group $G$ with the property $N(G)=N(Alt_n), n>4$ or $N(G)=N(Sym_n), n>22$ is non-solvable.
The Dehn function of Thompson's group $V$ is at most sextic

We show how all topological full groups coming from a one-sided irreducible shift of finite type, as studied by Matui, can be re-interpreted as groups of colour-preserving tree almost automorphisms. As an application, we show that they admit t.d.l.c. completions of arbitrary finite local prime content. This applies in particular to Thompson's $V$.
