We study only free actions of finite abelian groups G on the 3-dimensional nilmanifold, up to topological conjugacy. we shall deal with only one out of 15 distinct almost Bieberbach groups up to Seifert local invariant.

The strong shift equivalence of nonnegative integral square matrices is a necessary and sufficient condition for the topological conjugacy of topological Markov chains. In this paper we study the relation between strong shift equivalence and matrix conjugation.

Let $F={F^v:S^1->S^1,v\in\; V$ and $g={G^v:S^1->S^1,v\in\; V$ be disjoint flows defined on the unit circle $S^1$, that is such flows that each their element either is the identity mapping or has no fixed point ((V, +) is a 2-divisible nontrivial abelian group). The aim of this paper is to give a necessary and sufficient codition for topological conjugacy of disjoint flows i.e., the existence of a homeomorphism $\Gamma:S^1->S^1$ satisfying $$\Gamma\circ\ F^v=G^v\circ\Gamma,\; v\in\; V$$ Moreover, under some further restrictions, we determine all such homeomorphisms.

The notion of pseudorandomness plays an important role in modem cryptography as well as computer science. We show a simple and practical construction of a pseudorandom generator based on the intractability of the problem in braid groups. The generator is proved as secure as a hard instance of a variant of the conjugacy problem.

Let G be an infinite countable group and A be a finite set. If Σ ⊆ A^G is a strongly irreducible subshift of finite type and 𝓖 is the local conjugacy equivalence relation on Σ. We construct a decreasing sequence 𝓡 of unital C^*-subalgebras of C(Σ) and a sequence of faithful conditional expectations E defined on C(Σ), and obtain a Toeplitz algebra 𝓣 (𝓡, 𝓔) and a C^*-algebra C^*(𝓡, 𝓔) for the pair (𝓡, 𝓔). We show that C^*(𝓡, 𝓔) is *-isomorphic to the reduced groupoid C^*-algebra C^*_r(𝓖).

In this paper, we introduce a length function for elements of the imprimitive complex reflection group G(m, 1, n) and study its properties. Furthermore, we show that every conjugacy class of G(m, 1, n) can be represented by an admissible diagram. The corresponding results for Weyl groups are well known.

Grossman [7] showed that certain cyclically pinched 1-relator groups have residually finite outer automorphism groups. In this paper we prove that tree products of finitely generated free groups amalgamating maximal cyclic subgroups have residually finite outer automorphism groups. We also prove that polygonal products of finitely generated central subgroup separable groups amalgamating trivial intersecting central subgroups have residually finite outer automorphism groups.

We study free actions of finite abelian groups on 3­dimensional nilmanifolds. By the works of Bieberbach and Waldhausen, this classification problem is reduced to classifying all normal nilpotent subgroups of almost Bieberbach groups of finite index, up to affine conjugacy. All such actions are completely classified.

Shifts of finite type are represented by nonnegative integral square matrics, and conjugacy between two shifts of finite type is determined by strong shift equivalence between the representing nonnegative intergral square matrices. But determining strong shift equivalence is usually a very difficult problem. we develop splittings and amalgamations of nonnegative integral matrices, which are analogues of those of directed graphs, and show that two nonnegative integral square matrices are strong shift equivalent if and only if one is obtained from a higher matrix of the other matrix by a series of amalgamations.

We study free actions of finite groups on 3-dimensional nil-manifolds with the first homology ${\mathbb{Z}}^2{\oplus}{\mathbb{Z}}_p$. By the works of Bieberbach and Waldhausen, this classification problem is reduced to classifying all normal nilpotent subgroups of almost Bieberbach groups of finite index, up to affine conjugacy.
