Abstract

L. Childs has defined a skew brace $(G, \cdot, \circ)$ to be a bi-skew brace if $(G, \circ, \cdot)$ is also a skew brace, and has given applications of this concept to the equivalent theory of Hopf-Galois structures. The goal of this paper is to deal with bi-skew braces $(G, \cdot, \circ)$ from the yet equivalent point of view of regular subgroups of the holomorph of $(G, \cdot)$. In particular, we find that certain groups studied by T. Kohl, F. Dalla Volta and the author, and C. Tsang all yield examples of bi-skew braces. Building on a construction of Childs, we also give various methods for constructing further examples of bi-skew braces.

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.
