The group Sp10(ℤ) is (2,3)-generated
It is proved that the group Sp10(ℤ) is generated by an involution and an element of order 3.

Let be a group and a prime. The subgroup generated by the elements of order different from is called the Hughes subgroup for exponent . Hughes [3] made the following conjecture: if is non-trivial, its index in is at most . There are many articles that treat this problem. In the present Note we examine those of Strauss and Szekeres [9], which treats the case and arbitrary, and that of Hogan and Kappe [2] concerning the case when is metabelian, and arbitrary. A common proof is...
We provide a solution to the isomorphism problem for torsion-free relatively hyperbolic groups with abelian parabolics. As special cases we recover solutions to the isomorphism problem for: (i) torsion-free hyperbolic groups (Sela, [60] and unpublished); and (ii) finitely generated fully residually free groups (Bumagin, Kharlampovich and Miasnikov [14]). We also give a solution to the homeomorphism problem for finite volume hyperbolic -manifolds, for . In the course of the proof of the main result,...
