Abstract: Lehnert and Schweitzer show in [20] that R. Thompson's group $V$ is a co-context-free ($comathcalCF$) group, thus implying that all of its finitely generated subgroups are also $comathcalCF$ groups. Also, Lehnert shows in his thesis that $V$ embeds inside the $comathcalCF$ group $mathrmQAut(mathcal{T}_{2,c})$, which is a group of particular bijections on the vertices of an infinite binary $2$-edge-colored tree, and he conjectures that $mathrmQAut(mathcal{T}_{2,c})$ is a universal $comathcalCF$ group. We show that $mathrmQAut(mathcal{T}_{2,c})$ embeds into $V$, and thus obtain a new form for Lehnert's conjecture. Following up on these ideas, we begin work to build a representation theory into R. Thompson's group $V$. In particular we classify precisely which Baumslag-Solitar groups embed into $V$.
