We say that the reduction $mathfrak{X}$-theorem holds for a finite group $A$ if, for every finite group $G$ that is an extension of $A$ (i. e. contains $A$ as a normal subgroup), the number of conjugacy classes of $mathfrak{X}$-maximal subgroups in $G$ and $G/A$ is the same.

This solves a conjecture of Juan-Pineda and Leary and a question of L\"uck-Reich-Rognes-Varisco for Artin groups. We then study the conjugacy growth of CAT(0) groups and show that if a CAT(0) group contains a free abelian group of rank two, its conjugacy growth is strictly faster than linear.

A subset $F subset G$ is called irreducibly faithful if there exists an irreducible unitary representation $pi$ of $G$ such that $pi(x) ne text{id}$ for all $x in F smallsetminus {e}$. Otherwise $F$ is called irreducibly unfaithful. Given a positive integer $n$, we say that $G$ has Property $P(n)$ if every subset of size $n$ is irreducibly faithful. Every group has $P(1)$, by a classical result of Gelfand and Raikov. Walter proved that every group has $P(2)$. It is easy to see that some groups do not have $P(3)$. \u0000We provide a complete description of the irreducibly unfaithful subsets of size $n$ in a (finite or infinite) countable group $G$ with Property $P(n-1)$: it turns out that such a subset is contained in a finite elementary abelian normal subgroup of $G$ of a particular kind. We deduce a characterization of Property $P(n)$ purely in terms of the group structure. It follows that, if a countable group $G$ has $P(n-1)$ and does not have $P(n)$, then $n$ is the cardinality of a projective space over a finite field. \u0000A group $G$ has Property $Q(n)$ if, for every subset $F subset G$ of size at most $n$, there exists an irreducible unitary representation $pi$ of $G$ such that $pi(x) ne pi(y)$ for any distinct $x, y$ in $F$. Every group has $Q(2)$. For countable groups, it is shown that Property $Q(3)$ is equivalent to $P(3)$, Property $Q(4)$ to $P(6)$, and Property $Q(5)$ to $P(9)$. For $m, n ge 4$, the relation between Properties $P(m)$ and $Q(n)$ is closely related to a well-documented open problem in additive combinatorics.","PeriodicalId":8427,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Group Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90523499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The theory for irreducible automorphisms being well-developed, we concentrate on the reducible case. Since we deal with the bordification, we develop all the needed tools in the more general setting of deformation spaces, and their associated free splitting complexes. \u0000In the present paper we study the local properties of the displacement function. In particular, we study its convexity properties and the behaviour at bordification points, by geometrically characterising its continuity-points. We prove that the global-simplex-displacement spectrum of $Aut(F_n)$ is a well-ordered subset of $mathbb R$, this being helpful for algorithmic purposes. We introduce a weaker notion of train tracks, which we call {em partial train tracks} (which coincides with the usual one for irreducible automorphisms) and we prove that, for any automorphism, points of minimal displacement - minpoints - coincide with the marked metric graphs that support partial train tracks. We show that any automorphism, reducible or not, has a partial train track (hence a minpoint) either in the outer space or its bordification. We show that, given an automorphism, any of its invariant free factors is seen in a partial train track map. In a subsequent paper we will prove that level sets of the displacement functions are connected, and we will apply that result to solve certain decision problems.","PeriodicalId":8427,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Group Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90984786","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As we reach the bordification of $CV_n$ we have to deal with general deformation spaces, for this reason we developed the theory in such generality. In first paper~cite{FMpartI} we studied general properties of the displacement functions, such as well-orderability of the spectrum and the topological characterization of min-points via partial train tracks (possibly at infinity). This paper is devoted to proving that for any automorphism (reducible or not) any level set of the displacement function is connected. As an application, this result provides a stopping procedure for brute force search algorithms in $CV_n$. We use this to reprove two known algorithmic results: the conjugacy problem for irreducible automorphisms and detecting irreducibility of automorphisms.
