Geometric subgroups of surface braid groups

Luis Paris, Dale Rolfsen (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Let M be a surface, let N be a subsurface, and let n m be two positive integers. The inclusion of N in M gives rise to a homomorphism from the braid group B n N with n strings on N to the braid group B m M with m strings on M . We first determine necessary and sufficient conditions that this homomorphism is injective, and we characterize the commensurator, the normalizer and the centralizer of π 1 N in π 1 M . Then we calculate the commensurator, the normalizer and the centralizer of B n N in B m M for large surface braid...

Groups whose all subgroups are ascendant or self-normalizing

Leonid Kurdachenko, Javier Otal, Alessio Russo, Giovanni Vincenzi (2011)

Open Mathematics

This paper studies groups G whose all subgroups are either ascendant or self-normalizing. We characterize the structure of such G in case they are locally finite. If G is a hyperabelian group and has the property, we show that every subgroup of G is in fact ascendant provided G is locally nilpotent or non-periodic. We also restrict our study replacing ascendant subgroups by permutable subgroups, which of course are ascendant [Stonehewer S.E., Permutable subgroups of infinite groups, Math. Z., 1972,...

Groups whose proper subgroups are Baer-by-Chernikov or Baer-by-(finite rank)

Abdelhafid Badis, Nadir Trabelsi (2011)

Open Mathematics

Our main result is that a locally graded group whose proper subgroups are Baer-by-Chernikov is itself Baer-by-Chernikov. We prove also that a locally (soluble-by-finite) group whose proper subgroups are Baer-by-(finite rank) is itself Baer-by-(finite rank) if either it is locally of finite rank but not locally finite or it has no infinite simple images.

Groups with every subgroup ascendant-by-finite

Sergio Camp-Mora (2013)

Open Mathematics

A subgroup H of a group G is called ascendant-by-finite in G if there exists a subgroup K of H such that K is ascendant in G and the index of K in H is finite. It is proved that a locally finite group with every subgroup ascendant-by-finite is locally nilpotent-by-finite. As a consequence, it is shown that the Gruenberg radical has finite index in the whole group.

Groups with many nearly normal subgroups

Maria De Falco (2001)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Un sottogruppo H di un gruppo G si dice nearly normal se ha indice finito nella sua chiusura normale H G . In questa nota si caratterizzano i gruppi in cui ogni sottogruppo che non sia nearly normal soddisfa una fissata condizione finitaria χ per diverse scelte naturali della proprietà χ .
