Abstract
Using small cancellation methods, we show that the property invariable generation does not pass to finite index subgroups, answering questions of Wiegold and Kantor-Lubotzky-Shalev. We further show that a finitely generated group that is invariably generated is not necessarily finitely invariably generated, answering a question of Cox. The same results were also obtained independently by Minasyan.
期刊介绍:
Groups, Geometry, and Dynamics is devoted to publication of research articles that focus on groups or group actions as well as articles in other areas of mathematics in which groups or group actions are used as a main tool. The journal covers all topics of modern group theory with preference given to geometric, asymptotic and combinatorial group theory, dynamics of group actions, probabilistic and analytical methods, interaction with ergodic theory and operator algebras, and other related fields.
Topics covered include:
geometric group theory;
asymptotic group theory;
combinatorial group theory;
probabilities on groups;
computational aspects and complexity;
harmonic and functional analysis on groups, free probability;
ergodic theory of group actions;
cohomology of groups and exotic cohomologies;
groups and low-dimensional topology;
group actions on trees, buildings, rooted trees.
