In this paper we study the (2,k)-generation of the finite classical groups SL(4,q), Sp(4,q), SU(4,q^2) and their projective images. Here k is the order of an arbitrary element of SL(2,q), subject to the necessary condition k>= 3. When q is even we allow also k=4.

We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a 2-dimensional or a three-generator Artin group $A$ to be (virtually) cocompactly cubulated, in terms of the defining graph of $A$.

We show that many 2-dimensional Artin groups are residually finite. This includes 3-generator Artin groups with labels $geq$ 3 where either at least one label is even, or at most one label is equal 3. As a first step towards residual finiteness we show that these Artin groups, and many more, split as free products with amalgamation or HNN extensions of finite rank free groups. Among others, this holds for all large type Artin groups with defining graph admitting an orientation, where each simple cycle is directed.
A group G is called bounded if every conjugation-invariant norm on G has finite diameter. We introduce various strengthenings of this property and investigate them in several classes of groups including semisimple Lie groups, arithmetic groups and linear algebraic groups. We provide applications to Hamiltonian dynamics.
Previously, the authors proved that the presentation complex of a one-relator group $G$ satisfies a geometric condition called negative immersions if every two-generator, one-relator subgroup of $G$ is free. Here, we prove that one-relator groups with negative immersions are coherent, answering a question of Baumslag in this case. Other strong constraints on the finitely generated subgroups also follow such as, for example, the co-Hopf property. The main new theorem strengthens negative immersions to uniform negative immersions, using a rationality theorem proved with linear-programming techniques.
A subset $S$ of a group $G$ invariably generates $G$ if $G= langle s^{g(s)} | s in Srangle$ for every choice of $g(s) in G,s in S$. We say that a group $G$ is invariably generated if such $S$ exists, or equivalently if $S=G$ invariably generates $G$. In this paper, we study invariable generation of Thompson groups. We show that Thompson group $F$ is invariable generated by a finite set, whereas Thompson groups $T$ and $V$ are not invariable generated.
