Abstract

The minimal base size $b(G)$ for a permutation group $G$, is a widely studied topic in the permutation group theory. Z. Halasi and K. Podoski proved that $b(G)\leq 2$ for coprime linear groups. Motivated by this result and the probabilistic method used by T. C. Burness, M. W. Liebeck and A. Shalev, it was asked by L. Pyber that for coprime linear groups $G\leq GL(V)$, whether there exists a constant $c$ such that the probability of that a random $c$-tuple is a base for $G$ tends to 1 as $|V|\to\infty$. While the answer to this question is negative in general, it is positive under the additional assumption that $G$ is even primitive as a linear group. In this paper, we show that almost all $11$-tuples are bases for coprime primitive linear groups.

Reversibility and its asymptotic counting in Picard group

We investigate reversible elements in the Picard modular group $\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Z}[i])$. We show that reversibility coincides with strong reversibility for Kleinian groups, in particular for the Picard group. We classify reversible elements in the Picard group and characterize loxodromic reversible elements up to conjugacy. We prove that each such conjugacy class contains exactly eight special representatives. We also obtain asymptotic estimates for the number of reversible conjugacy classes with bounded trace.

Conjugator length in finitely generated groups

We describe all functions $\mathbb{N}\rightarrow \mathbb{N}$ that can be realized, up to the standard equivalence, as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups. Furthermore, we show that any two increasing functions $f,g\colon \mathbb N\to \mathbb N$ can be simultaneously realized as conjugator length functions of finitely generated, commensurable (in particular, quasi-isometric) groups.

The spectrum of conjugator length functions

A recent program tries to find which functions appear as conjugator length functions. In this note, we show that any (computable) increasing function larger than $n$ appears as $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ for some finitely generated (recursively presented) group. On the other hand, we demonstrate that either $\mathrm{Cl}_G$ must be constant or $\mathrm{Cl}_G(n)\succ n$. Combining these, we obtain a complete description of which functions appear as conjugator length functions of finitely generated groups.
