Combinatorial and model-theoretic properties of groups

Our work here relates to certain routes for the construction of new groups, and in particular, of counter-examples to the Cherlin-Zilber conjecture. We managed to find an answer for the stability of existentially closed CSA- groups. We build a group word in two variables that has the independence property relatively to the class of torsion-free hyperbolic groups. We deduced that the corresponding equation gives the independence property of existentially closed CSA groups which in turn implies their instability. Moreover, we demonstrate that group words, and in particular quantifierfree definable sets, define stable sets in bounded balls of free products of groups using a finite version of Ramsey’s theorem. Finally, we introduce certain groups constructed as special towers of free products and HNN-extensions.
