Erratum to : A generalization of Taketa's Theorem on M-groups

Abstract

In the recent paper [A generalization of Taketa's theorem on M-groups, Quaestiones Mathematicae, (2022), https://doi.org/10.2989/16073606.2022.2081632], we give an upper bound 5/2 for the average of non-monomial character degrees of a finite group G, denoted by acdnm(G), which guarantees the solvability of G. Although the result is true, the example we gave to show that the bound is sharp turns out to be incorrect. In this paper, we find a new bound and we give an example to show that this new bound is sharp. Indeed, we prove the solvability of G, by assuming acdnm(G) < acdnm(SL2(5)) = 19/7.

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.
