On some properties of groups generated by bireversible automata

By Dominik Francoeur

Among self-similar groups, groups generated by bireversible automata are particularly intriguing from the point of view of geometric group theory, since they have, among others, connections with CAT(0) square complexes and commensurators of free groups in the automorphism groups of regular trees. However, currently, they remain quite mysterious, since very few examples of such groups are known. In an effort to get a better grasp on the kind of groups that can or cannot be generated by bireversible automata, we will investigate some of their properties. In particular, we will discuss the distortion of their cyclic subgroups.
