Abstract Commensurators of Groups Acting on Rooted Trees

We show that the abstract commensurator of a nearly level transitive weakly branch group H coincides with the relative commensurator of H in the homeomorphism group of the boundary of the tree on which H acts. It is also shown that the commensurator of an infinite group which is commensurable with its own nth direct power contains a Higman–Thompson group as a subgroup. Applying these results to the Grigorchuk 2-group G we show that the commensurator of G is a finitely presented infinite simple group.     

On the Finite Base Property for Semigroup Varieties

No algorithm determines from an arbitrary recursive system of semigroup identities whether the variety defined by this system is finitely based.     

Estimation of the Common Mean of a Bivariate Normal Population

In this paper we discuss the problem of estimating the common mean of a bivariate normal population based on paired data as well as data on one of the marginals. Two double sampling schemes with the second stage sampling being either a simple random sampling (SRS) or a ranked set sampling (RSS) are considered. Two common mean estimators are proposed. It is found that under normality, the proposed RSS common mean estimator is always superior to the proposed SRS common mean estimator and other existing estimators such as the RSS regression estimator proposed by Yu and Lam (1997, Biometrics, 53, 1070–1080). The problem of estimating the mean Reid Vapor Pressure (RVP) of regular gasoline based on field and laboratory data is considered.

Dynamics of implicit operations and tameness of pseudovarieties of groups

This work gives a new approach to the construction of implicit operations. By considering ``higher-dimensional' spaces of implicit operations and implicit operators between them, the projection of idempotents back to one-dimensional spaces produces implicit operations with interesting properties. Besides providing a wealth of examples of implicit operations which can be obtained by these means, it is shown how they can be used to deduce from results of Ribes and Zalesski, Margolis, Sapir and Weil, and Steinberg that the pseudovariety of -groups is tame. More generally, for a recursively enumerable extension closed pseudovariety of groups , if it can be decided whether a finitely generated subgroup of the free group with the pro- topology is dense, then is tame.

An explicit characterization of cubic symmetric bi-Cayley graphs on nonabelian simple groups

One of the remarkable contributions in the study of symmetric Cayley graphs on nonabelian simple groups is the complete classification of such graphs that are cubic and nonnormal. This naturally motivates the study of cubic (normal and nonnormal) symmetric bi-Cayley graphs on nonabelian simple groups. In this paper, the full automorphism groups of these graphs are determined, and necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a graph being a cubic normal symmetric Cayley or bi-Cayley graph on a nonabelian simple group (one may then find many examples). As an application, we also prove that cubic symmetric Cayley graphs on nonabelian simple groups are stable.
