On Butler B ( 2 ) -groups decomposing over two base elements

Clorinda de Vivo, Claudia Metelli (2009)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A B ( 2 ) -group is a sum of a finite number of torsionfree Abelian groups of rank 1 , subject to two independent linear relations. We complete here the study of direct decompositions over two base elements, determining the cases where the relations play an essential role.

On direct sums of ( 1 ) -groups

Claudia Metelli (1993)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

A necessary and sufficient condition is given for the direct sum of two ( 1 ) -groups to be (quasi-isomorphic to) a ( 1 ) -group. A ( 1 ) -group is a torsionfree Abelian group that can be realized as the quotient of a finite direct sum of rank 1 groups modulo a pure subgroup of rank 1.

On direct sums of B ( 1 ) -groups – II

Clorinda De Vivo, Claudia Metelli (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

B ( 1 ) -groups are a class of torsionfree Abelian groups of finite rank, part of the main class of Butler groups. In the paper C. Metelli, On direct sums of B ( 1 ) -groups, Comment. Math. Univ. Carolinae 34 (1993), 587–591, the problem of direct sums of B ( 1 ) -groups was discussed, and a necessary and sufficient condition was given for the direct sum of two B ( 1 ) -groups to be a B ( 1 ) -group. While sufficiency holds, necessity was wrongly claimed; we solve here the problem, and in the process study a curious hierarchy among...
