Pipe Diagrams for Thompson's Group F
… the definition and standard description of Thompson's Group F. We define the set of pipe diagrams and show that this set forms a group isomorphic to F. We use pipe diagrams to prove two theorems about giving a minimal representation for an arbitrary element of F.

Statistical Properties of Thompson's Group and Random Pseudo Manifolds
… statistical and geometric study of properties of Thompson's Group F. We enumerate the number of elements of F which are represented by a reduced pair of n-caret trees, and give asymptotic estimates. We also discuss the effects on word length and number of carets of right multiplication by a …

Relating Thompson's group V to graphs of groups and Hecke algebras
… is in two main sections, both of which feature Thompson's group $V$, relating it to classical constructions involving automorphism groups on trees or to representations of symmetric groups. In the first section, we take $\mathcal{G}$ to be a graph of groups, which acts on its universal cover, …
