AbstractWe study the growth of group endomorphisms, a generalization of the classical notion of growth of finitely generated groups, which is strictly related to algebraic entropy. We prove that the inner automorphisms of a group have the same growth type and the same algebraic entropy as the identity automorphism. Moreover, we show that endomorphisms of locally finite groups cannot have intermediate growth. We also find an example showing that the Addition Theorem for algebraic entropy does not hold for endomorphisms of arbitrary groups.

In the paper (4) of Green and Rees it was established that the finiteness of finitely generated semigroups satisfying xr = x is equivalent to the finiteness of finitely generated groups satisfying xr−1 = 1 (Burnside's Problem). A group satisfying x2 = 1 is abelian and if it is generated by n elements, it has at most 2n elements. The free finitely generated semigroups satisfying x3 = x are thus established to be finite, and in fact the connexion with the corresponding problem for groups can be used to give an upper bound on the size of these semigroups. This is a long way from an algorithm for a solution of the word problem however, and providing such an algorithm is the purpose of the present paper. The case x = x3 is of interest since the corresponding result for x = x2 was done by Green and Rees (4) and independently by McLean(6).

We say that a group G has finite lower central depth (or simply, finite depth) if the lower central series of G stabilises after a finite number of steps.In [1], we proved that if G is a finitely generated soluble group in which each two generator subgroup has finite depth then G is a finite-by-nilpotent group. Here, in answer to a question of R. Baer, we prove the following stronger version of this result.
