We further show that a finitely generated group that is invariably generated is not necessarily finitely invariably generated, answering a question of Cox. The same results were also obtained independently by Minasyan.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-06-09T21:42:11.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "20F06", "20F67", "20F65" ], "keywords": [ "finite index subgroups", "small cancellation methods", "property invariable generation", "finitely generated group", "answering questions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
