We describe the barely transitive groups with abelian-by-finite, nilpotent-by-finite and soluble-by-finite point stabilizer. In article [6] Hartley asked whether there is a torsionfree barely transitive group. One consequence of our results is that there is no torsionfree barely transitive group whose point stabilizer is nilpotent. Moreover, we show that if the stabilizer of a point is a permutable subgroup of an infinitely generated barely transitive group G, then G is locally finite.

On the condensation property of the lamplighter groups and groups of intermediate growth
Benli, Mustafa Gökhan (Lugansk Taras Shevchenko National University, 2014-06-01)
The aim of this short note is to revisit some old results about groups of intermediate growth and groups of the lamplighter type and to show that the Lamplighter group L = Z2 ≀ Z is a condensation group and has a minimal presentation by generators and relators. The condensation property is achieved by showing that L belongs to a Cantor subset of the space M2 of marked 2-generated groups consisting mostly of groups of intermediate growth.
On locally graded barely transitive groups
Betin, Cansu; Kuzucuoğlu, Mahmut (2013-07-01)
We show that a barely transitive group is totally imprimitive if and only if it is locally graded. Moreover, we obtain the description of a barely transitive group G for the case G has a cyclic subgroup aOE (c) x > which intersects non-trivially with all subgroups and for the case a point stabilizer H of G has a subgroup H (1) of finite index in H satisfying the identity chi(H (1)) = 1, where chi is a multi-linear commutator of weight w.
About the decomposability of almost completely decomposable groups
Budak, Canan; Solak, Ebru; Department of Mathematics (2020-8)
Almost completely decomposable groups are extensions of completely decomposable groups of finite index. They can be written as a sum of indecomposables. Every almost completely decomposable group is the direct sum of indecomposables but this decomposition is quite complicated and not unique. Almost completely decomposable groups can be represented by matrices, called coordinate matrices. If the coordinate matrix of a given almost completely decomposable group is decomposable then the group is decomposable. ...
Universal groups of intermediate growth and their invariant random subgroups
Benli, Mustafa Gökhan; Nagnibeda, Tatiana (2015-07-01)
We exhibit examples of groups of intermediate growth with ergodic continuous invariant random subgroups. The examples are the universal groups associated with a family of groups of intermediate growth.
Beauville structures in p-groups
Gül, Şükran; Ercan, Gülin; Fernández-Alcober, Gustavo Adolfo; Department of Mathematics (2016)
Given a finite group G and two elements x, y in G, we denote by Sigma(x,y) the union of all conjugates of the cyclic subgroups generated by x, y and xy. Then G is called a Beauville group of unmixed type if the following conditions hold: (i) G is a 2-generator group. (ii) G has two generating sets {x1,y1} and {x2, y2} such that Sigma (x1, y1) intersection Sigma(x2, y2) is 1. In this case, {x1, y1} and {x2, y2} are said to form a Beauville structure for G. The main purpose of this thesis is to extend the kn...
