Then G is naturally a locally compact group. A discrete subgroup Γ ≤ G is called an X-lattice, or a tree lattice if Γ has finite covolume in G. The lattice Γ is encoded in a graph of finite groups of finite volume. We describe several methods for constructing a pair of X-lattices (Γ′, Γ) with Γ ≤ Γ′, starting from ‘edge-indexed graphs’ (A′, i′) and (A, i) which correspond to the edge-indexed quotient graphs of their (common) universal covering tree by Γ′ and Γ respectively. We determine when finite sheeted topological coverings of edge-indexed graphs give rise to a pair of lattice subgroups (Γ, Γ′) with an inclusion Γ ≤ Γ′. We describe when a ‘full graph of subgroups’ and a ‘subgraph of subgroups’ constructed from the graph of groups encoding a lattice Γ′ gives rise to a lattice subgroup Γ and an inclusion Γ ≤ Γ′. We show that a nonuniform X-lattice Γ contains an infinite chain of subgroups Λ1 ≤ Λ2 ≤ Λ3 ≤ ⋯ where each Λ k is a uniform Xk -lattice and Xk is a subtree of X. Our techniques, which are a combination of topological graph theory, covering theory for graphs of groups, and covering theory for edge-indexed graphs, have no analog in classical covering theory. We obtain a local necessary condition for extending coverings of edgeindexed graphs to covering morphisms of graphs of groups with abelian groupings. This gives rise to a combinatorial method for constructing lattice inclusions Γ ≤ Γ′ ≤ H ≤ G with abelian vertex stabilizers inside a closed and hence locally compact subgroup H of G. We give examples of lattice pairs Γ ≤ Γ′ when H is a simple algebraic group of K-rank 1 over a nonarchimedean local field K and a rank 2 locally compact complete Kac–Moody group over a finite field. We also construct an infinite descending chain of lattices ⋯ ≤ Γ2 ≤ Γ1 ≤ Γ ≤ H≤ G with abelian vertex stabilizers.","PeriodicalId":119576,"journal":{"name":"Groups Complex.

In 2003 Cohn and Umans introduced a group-theoretic approach to fast matrix multiplication. This involves finding large subsets of a group satisfying the triple product property (TPP) as a means to bound the exponent of matrix multiplication.

We describe the algorithms for all known TPP tests and present the runtime differences between their GAP implementations. We prove that the search for non-trivial-sized TPP triples of subgroups of a given group can be restricted to the set of its non-normal subgroups, and apply this, together with other preconditions, to describe brute-force search algorithms for largest-sized TPP triples of subgroups and subsets. In addition we present the results of the subset brute-force search for all groups of order up to 32 and selected results of the subgroup brute-force search for 2-groups, and .

In this note we study the purely group theoretic aspects of the growth rate of an endomorphism of a finitely generated group. We show that it is finite and bounded by the maximum length of the image of a generator. An equivalent formulation is given that ties the growth rate of an endomorphism to an increasing chain of subgroups. We then consider the relationship between growth rate of an endomorphism on a whole group and the growth rate restricted to a subgroup or considered on a quotient. We use these results to compute the growth rates on direct and semidirect products.
