Abstract

top
In this paper, we initiate the study of various classes of isotype subgroups of global mixed groups. Our goal is to advance the theory of Σ -isotype subgroups to a level comparable to its status in the simpler contexts of torsion-free and p -local mixed groups. Given the history of those theories, one anticipates that definitive results are to be found only when attention is restricted to global k -groups, the prototype being global groups with decomposition bases. A large portion of this paper is devoted to showing that primitive elements proliferate in Σ -isotype subgroups of such groups. This allows us to establish the fundamental fact that finite rank Σ -isotype subgroups of k -groups are themselves k -groups.
