The wreath-product construction is used to give a complete combinatorial description of the dynamics of period-doubling quadratic maps leading to the Feigenbaum map. An explicit description of the action on periodic points uses the Thue–Morse sequence. In particular, a wreath-product construction of this sequence is given. The combinatorial renormalization operator on the period-doubling family of maps is invertible.

Gilbert Baumslag, B.H. Neumann, Hanna Neumann, and Peter M. Neumann successfully exploited their concept of discrimination to obtain generating groups of product varieties via the wreath product construction. We have discovered this same underlying concept in a somewhat different context. Specifically, let V be a non-trivial variety of algebras. For each cardinal α let Fα(V) be a V-free algebra of rank α. Then for a fixed cardinal r one has the equivalence of the following two statements:(1) Fr(V) discriminates V. (1*) The Fs(V) satisfy the same universal sentences for all s≥r. Moreover, we have introduced the concept of strong discrimination in such a way that for a fixed finite cardinal r the following two statements are equivalent:(2) Fr(V) strongly discriminates V. (2*) The Fs(V) satisfy the same universal formulas for all s ≥ r whenever elements of Fr(V) are substituted for the unquantified variables. On the surface (2) and (2*) appear to be stronger conditions than (1) and (1*). However, we have shown that for particular varieties (of groups) (2) and (2*) are no stronger than (1) and (1*).

A permutation class which is closed under pattern involvement may be described in terms of its basis. The wreath product construction $X\wr Y$ of two permutation classes $X$ and $Y$ is also closed, and we exhibit a family of classes $Y$ with the property that, for any finitely based class $X$, the wreath product $X\wr Y$ is also finitely based. Additionally, we indicate a general construction for basis elements in the case where $X\wr Y$ is not finitely based.

AbstractGiven two finitely generated groups that coarsely embed into a Hilbert space, it is known that their wreath product also embeds coarsely into a Hilbert space. We introduce a wreath product construction for general metric spaces $X,Y,Z$ and derive a condition, called the (${\it\delta}$-polynomial) path lifting property, such that coarse embeddability of $X,Y$ and $Z$ implies coarse embeddability of $X\wr _{Z}Y$. We also give bounds on the compression of $X\wr _{Z}Y$ in terms of ${\it\delta}$ and the compressions of $X,Y$ and $Z$.

AbstractA finite element cochain complex on Cartesian meshes of any dimension based on the $$H^1$$ H 1 -inner product is introduced. It yields $$H^1$$ H 1 -conforming finite element spaces with exterior derivatives in $$H^1$$ H 1 . We use a tensor product construction to obtain $$L^2$$ L 2 -stable projectors into these spaces which commute with the exterior derivative. The finite element complex is generalized to a family of arbitrary order.

Let W = G ≀ H be the wreath product of G by an n-generator abelian group H. We prove that every element of W′ is a product of at most n+2 commutators, and every element of W2 is a product of at most 3n+4 squares in W. This generalizes our previous result.
